Hello everyone! sorry for not posting too much lately, but here goes my super turbo life update.
resume : been busy and went to the doc, hopefully i'll be okay to draw in maybe 2 weeks for your monthly patreon sketches!
-----------------------
sorry if this takes long but i feel the need to let you know, since you guys are supporting me with your money and not getting much in return, im sorry in advance for that y_y.
Allright so, As many of you know already, my main goal with my drawings and patreon was to be able to maintain myself with everyone's support and commissions, but due to tendonitis getting way much worse, sadly i had to give up on that dream... ever since i started this patreon and thanks to everyone's support and former patreons, i've been able to survive and pay stuff of everyday life plus what im supposed to pay here where im living right now, we sorted that out with my bf when i started studying, wich is around march.
Ever since october 28 to be exact, i finished the informatic course that i've been doing to get a better chance to get a job, cuz drawing for a life wont be affordable nor healty for myself (i may end up getting worse). So im putting all my effort and time into searching for a job as a programmer! and ever since i've been studying, applying for jobs and stuff like that, so i havent been in a mood to draw anything besides patreon rewards all this time, and im so sorry for that. Said this, i've started to think and study to do my own projects and have other goals for myself. I've been studying android to make my own mobile app and also i've been talking with friends and "settling ground" for a very and hopefully possible game that i wanna do in the future! but as i said before, this is something completely different to what i studied and been aplying for jobs, so once i got called to these jobs, i had to study everything all over again and work hard, do tests and prepare for interviews (and im still in this process) so i had to put a stop my personal projects plus the drawings. Then the holydays arrived and i've been busy ever since up until yesterday.
Also my hand got a weird pain in the thumb, that i got unchecked for 2 months, because since i dont have health insurance, i would have to pay the whole price, wich is a lot ,thankfully my boyfriend helped me with that <3 finally i decided to take an appointment yesterday, got checked and did some procedures, and it wasnt as bad as i tought, so i must let my hand rest now, got to buy some meds and cream to apply to my thumb and hopefully i will recover in no time!
Because of all of this, i havent been able to do most of last month's rewards, but fear not! you know that i will do all of them as i usually do! dont worry, i have a list of everything that i owe so i wont forget!
Once more and to finish, im so sorry to have to make you wait for me for a service you're paying and you're not getting much in return, im truly truly sorry, I'll try to compensate you all somehow y_y and THANK YOU all so much for sticking with me despite of everything, you guys have been really nice to me despite everything , and you all know i really really REALLY appreciate it, from the bottom of my hearth thank you <3
-----------------
ALSO important message, because this have been happening, and if i get a job i will obviously have less time to do stuff, i've been thinking about this patreon and what to do with it, i've asked some friends about it and im having ideas too. I love drawing so much that i wouldnt like to stop drawing, honestly, im kinda sad and scared about what will happen if my hands get worse... but as for now, I've been thinking that maybe i should lower the tier rewards a little and have this patreon as a tip rather than my main income. So maybe lower the rewards to maybe $1 or $3 for everything and delete the $20 dolar patreon, or have it limited to maybe 2 or 3 people, (i just read that i can't do raffles on patreon as tier rewards). I would like your opinion on this so please let me know in the comments!
------------
ALSO ALSO
if i end up doing an app or a game, i may use this patreon too to promotion it or to let you guys try it before publishing or updates or whatever, i havent gotten to that territory yet, but it sure is a journey id love to experience, so as always, stay tunned!
thank you for reading <3 <3 <3
