My Patreon: Update

So, after three months of pauses, my Patreon will be resuming in November. But there will be some changes.

I am doing better now, still not completely back on track, but slowly getting there, and have been working on various things. My current plan is to share some new stuff with you all on the first weekend of the month, as much as I can, but might not be too much this first month back. Thank you all for your patience with me during this time.

Over the past few months of artistic blocks, I have come to the realization that I need to make a change to my Patreon going forward. Namely, that I will be deleting all the commission tiers. I have had to admit to myself that despite what I thought when I set them up, those monthly commission tiers are just more than I can handle, and have become a big source of stress and guilt. I have already sent messages to the patrons on those tiers letting them know. So, those tiers will be gone by the end of the month, and my Patreon will just be the standard and premium tiers. This is a necessary change for the sake of my mental health and to help me get back on track.

For anyone wondering about what this means for me taking on commissions in future, I will say that it probably will happen, but not until I am fully caught up on the stuff I still owe people. And any future commissions will be more limited, with me only taking on as many as I am absolutely certain I can handle. Also, my plan is that future commissions will be announced here on my Patreon before anywhere else, so my patrons will have first chance at getting any available slots.

Another thing I wanted to let you all know is that as part of my efforts to get my writing side going again, I have decided to try and do something for 'Hypnovember'. Basically, I've thrown together my own list of 30 prompts, one for each day of the month, and will be trying to write a very short quick little thing for each of them. In fact, I have already been working on a few. I probably won't post them daily, but maybe in batches every few days, possibly every week. Now, I make no promises about how much I will do, I could fail horribly, I could make it through the whole month. We'll just have to see what I can manage. I'm not letting it worry me, as the main purpose is really just to try and get me writing more.

If you want to check out the list of prompts, I made a quick image that can be found in this dropbox folder, which is also where I'll be posting the stories when they're done: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/gk9011wllurp291b1ye47/h?rlkey=gqn2wfcftfje1mybxmkpxrapr&dl=0

That's all for now. I'm hoping this is the start of me finally managing to get back to normal. Thank you all so much for your support and patience all this time.
