The (somewhat) usual update!
Added 2021-10-04 19:01:08 +0000 UTCWhat's that sound? Can you hear it? That little, rattling, clickity-clack? Almost like bones clattering together? Or a xylophone being played with tremendous passion and excess violence?
If you can't yet, you better. Because it's Spooky Month!
And in leu of spooky-month, I would like to give a big ol' thank you to everyone reading this (but specifically you, my wonderful Patrons) for following me: your favorite (or at least I better be (that was a joke (but, like, only kind of a joke))) monster-fucker audio-maker.
*insert gif of a dramatic bow, or something*
But, seriously, thank you guys. The start of each month for Patreon is always a little exiting, and a little bit of a bummer. On the one hand, I get paid the money that you guys give me, but on the other hand, tons of people cancel their subscription to me. As someone who just wants to see others be happy, it always gives me a little pang of worry that I'm doing something wrong.
But so many of you stay too! So, if I am doing something wrong, I also have to be doing something right. And, for being a patron: thank you, seriously.
Now let's get on to the Real Stuff (tm)... god, someone out there has to hate reading the way that I write these, right? Oh well.
First off: fuck me, am I already late on the next audio. This must be an annoying trend, huh? I will admit, part of why I'm moving slowly is because the music composer moves about as fast as those dying snails I used to watch in my childhood. He's a wonderful person and very talented, but I think very busy. It makes me a little hesitant to use his work for time-sensitive projects (like the audios). But, I'm torn there as well, because I felt like it really added to the Viking one.
So, what are your opinions? Should I keep adding in music? Maybe just for the $10 tier or something? Even if it means the audio could be 2+ weeks late?
Oh well, music or no music, I plan on having this audio done in 2 weeks tops.
But! On top of the audio, being October, I also plan on doing at least 1 other spooky-themed audio (probably SFW). I'll shoot for 2, but I hate over-promising, so 1 for sure. Right now, I'm going to try to do my own version of The Tell Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe, kinda like I did with The Raven. But! If you know of or have a specifically spooky (and short, pls, like under 10 minutes short, pls pls) story, let me know! I think it'd be fun to do more than 1.
I will also try to stream some more Monster Prom, in the holiday season of monster-fucking, and maybe a spooky game at some point.
In case you couldn't tell, October get's me nice and pumped.
I've also been thinking more about the "behind the scenes" tier for Patreon, and I think I will try to roll that out this month, but, since the script is mostly done, would videos of me doing the voices, and maybe some bloopers be enough? If I do end up making it, what other stuff would you want to see? Live-stream of the editing process?
Anyway! I feel like I had something else to tell you guys, but since I forgot, I will just say again: thank you all a lot for being a patron. It means a ton to me, and also helps me out as well. I hope that you keep enjoying what I make!
