Patreon Changes (Please Read)- Monthly Illustration Sets Return! (Patreon)

Hey gang!

After receiving feedback from both comments and the StrawPoll that I had made last week I am once again updating the Rewards, Tiers, and Goals for the Patreon.

I know this is quick turnaround from what I had wanted to do with the comics. But I'll be honest, I seemed to have jumped the gun on that and I don't think it went as well as I expected it to. I didn't space the rewards out very well, and having to constantly post and wait on the results of new polls was more draining then I expected it to be. It severely slowed down the creative process and I didn't get as much community engagements as I had hoped for. Additionally, it meant the comic pages are more rushed then they otherwise would be if I was more mindful and taking my time working and writing them.

That being said, I try to take everything as a learning experience, and I think if there is any takeaway from this its that sometimes keeping things simple is the best approach hah.

People voted most highly for me 'To do my own thing', and for 'Monthly illustration sets'. I think 'Doing my own thing' is too vague a reward and virtually every successful Patreon uses monthly polls as a center point of the experience. If it ain't broke don't fix it as they say. But I do still want to have more time for personal projects, so I am making a few adjustments to current Rewards and how the polls/suggestions will function.

At any rate, starting next month I will be returning to doing Patron suggested characters for Monthly Illustration Sets!
