Patreon Pause (Important Announcement)

Hi everyone,

I'm sad to say at the end of this month I'll be pausing my patreon for at least one month.
This does not mean your owed perks will be cancelled, I will still hold up anything you're owed like sketches and this month's poll

Explanation as for why will be at the bottom for those who want to read, otherwise this top part will be dedicated to what the pause means.

What the pause entails:

Patreon has a feature that allows me to pause tiers and payments, meaning you won't be charged for incoming months and receive benefits for those months

• I'm not leaving forever! This is only temporary till I get back to a place I'm able to provide good service again
  I'm not just going to dissappear or give up, I love running these blogs and patreon, It feels like such a blow just taking a pause but it's needed.
  
• All previously owed benefits up until this month will be upheld
  Super supporters please make sure to message me either on here, twitter or on discord with a current amount of owed sketches, for other tiers you will still have access to all early access posts until the end of month and still be able to poll for another character next month.
  
• You won't need to cancel your membership if wanting to stay on
  No payments should be taken from your account, until I enable them again which I will forewarn about using a post ahead of time. though I may shuffle or remove tiers so if that does happen you may need to resub if looking to stay
  
• This pause is meant to allow me a catch up on current work as I recognise the service I've been providing has been hugely affected
  As much as I want to pretend I can still give the service I used to, the workload is far too much especially with monthly additional work being added to that pile, I don't want to let my pride cause everyone to dislike working with me due to excessive wait times and chaos and instead come back fresh and more prepared to work patreon like more of a job
  
• This gives me the chance to do much needed improvements to tiers and Discord
  Having the break allow me not only to catch up, but to reshuffle my tiers and automations with discord, hopefully when I come back fresh I can implement things I've wanted to for a while making this place more professional and better structure

PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS BELOW
I know this is pretty big news so don't hesitate to ask anything and everything

Why I've decided to pause patreon:

I'm sure its no surprise to most people that I've been in a struggle both in blogging life and in my day-to-day. Lots of unexpected things have happened since September, which was supposed to be a new start and a better year for me.
However at this moment with all that's happened I've had to take extreme measures to keep where I am let alone move forward, including selling my first car, all tech I own besides drawing equipment etc. And even then I'm unsure if I'll be able to continue university or pay bills month to month or food day-to-day.

Honestly I've been trying to keep up the brave face but the pressure and troubles have had me at the end of my wits, safe to say without both the support from friends and you all I'm not sure where I'd be, as patreon income kept me with groceries and such when I wouldn't have been able to without.

Hopefully you all can understand this choice, it was a hard one to make as it feels like I'm admitting defeat in some way after struggling for so long. Though I took this option as it'll be better in the long run rather than keep trying to give you guys content that ends up subpar.

As I mentioned above I'll be accepting all questions since there's probably going to be quite a few things people are wondering about so don't hold back
