Hi I want to keep this very short because I hate writing these as much as most people hate reading them, this is basically more Patreon plugging for a couple reasons
- I'm trying to learn how to drive which involves weekly lessons which eats into expenses but I don't exactly want to give up learning this much needed skill because of how much not knowing how to drive really holds me back in being independent
- My cat is getting on in her years which means she's now got more medical problems I have to pay to treat out of my pocket, as of writing this she gets monthly injections to manage arthritis and needs hyperthyroidism medicine given to her twice a day, both of these + the payment plan I'm on to /lessen/ her vet bill costs still costs me monthly
- My schedule is overall busier than I'd like so making time for working on commissions has gotten more difficult, decreasing how dependant I am on them would help a lot, I'll still be open to them but with my increased expenses it's put pressure on to keep on top of money having to hope I get something to help afford expenses
- I do get a monthly PIP for being autistic and needing support in areas but it only barely covers everything mentioned above and also has to do me through the outings I have to go on most days, I don't want to say how much exactly it is on a public platform but it wouldn't even cover a months rent to give some idea (I live with family so rent isn't an issue)
Reasons why you might want to have a look at my Patreon
- I recently added the options to have a week-long free trial for my Soda and Doughnut tiers so you can basically see what I do and decide if you wanna support me from there
- If you do decide to support my higher tiers then you get discounts on commissions, up to 20% off (this can be stacked with sales I run every so often)
- I post artwork that doesn't get seen anywhere else, hi-res images, WIPs and overall give more insight to my process if you like that sort of thing, I do try to keep it updated a couple times a week so it's not often there's any serious dry periods (though life happens sometimes)
- I'm hoping to eventually have my webcomic be the incentive to support my Patreon but obviously making a comic and getting enough buffer ready for posting takes time, free time hasn't been on my side for this and having more support would give me the peace of mind needed to knuckle down better (more progress has been made than I can adequately show but WIPs of comics and seeing pages a week early will be incentive once I have more ready to show off)
With all that said above I'm going to start more strictly adhering to a work routine to better balance the things I both want and have to do with my time (as much as life will allow for at least), basically means I'll have to slow down how often I work on comms in order to juggle everything in a more balanced fashion. Obviously I'll still see to it that works gets done but it's going to have to be slower from here on out, I've updated my estimates on Artconomy of when work'll get done accordingly.
