News: Good, bad, and ugly. (Patreon)

Hey patrons,

Here's the good news: It looks as though Sparkypants Studios will be keeping me on its payroll for a bit longer than just two weeks, which means I'll finally be able to save up some money and not worry about the bills so much.

The bad news is that most of my energies will be spent on that project, so I won't be doing any art for this Patreon for quite a while. For how long? I honestly have no idea. It could be a month, could be a year — that's the downside of at-will employment. Silver lining: I tend to have some free time, so I'll be able to do some writing. Expect a new vote soon: I really can't seem to get a good design down for the Gunstar. :/

And now, for the ugly news: I found a lump in my right testicle a week ago, and right now I'm going through a cancer scare. Nothing's confirmed yet, and I only started with the exams, so for all i know it could just be a benign mass... but I'm not that hopeful on that count. Even assuming the worst, testicular cancer is very curable... it's just that I might be going to go through some pretty rough changes over the next year.

Peace,

Francois.
