Updates!
Added 2021-10-06 18:40:11 +0000 UTCHi everyone. As you've seen, things have been quiet here lately after we finished Jo's Fair. There is still a SFW one pager and NSFW one pager coming as well sometime soon, but I wanted to give an update on the children's storybook I was writing.
That's on hold. Simply put I didn't do a great job of scoping the project, and I bit off more than I can chew. Aim small, miss small, but aim big, and you occasionally miss. This one was a miss on my part. I got to page 14 and about 70 stanzas worth of poem before I took a step back and calculated cost, time, and effort to properly finish the project as a whole, and it just wasn't feasible. While I've not trashed the file, I'm not going to work on it any longer for the moment.
That being said, the storybook was supposed to end and then transition into the future 30 years to have the next issue showing all our characters as much older. I am still going to write that, and am starting tonight on it. I've already done some preliminary research and I can potentially do a motion comic for said issue and have it be feasible, which is pretty similar in feel to what I wanted to do with the storybook.
I'm sorry to everyone who might've been looking forward to the storybook. I don't often miss the mark on creative projects I want to do but I sure did on this one, and I feel like I kind of let this group of high level supporters down a bit by that. I hope you'll give me a chance to make it right with the future years issue and that you'll stick around for that.

You have nothing to worry about. <3 id rather you give the storybook a go and put it on the side rather than only dream about doing it. Can completely understand if it isn't something you can tackle just yet. But that's ok, when you are ready, you can return back to it. And I'm sure it will be greatly improved cos of that alone. :> Do what you can and what you love is what I would say really. And each update or post shows that. And whatever you craft it will be worth the wait. You're doing awesome buddy. <3
