January 24th to February 6th
Hey hi folks! Quick update this time, as I'm still working on a lot of stuff! Getting Plant Lamp ready for print is taking unexpectedly longer than planned due to a lot of small delays that added up. We're getting really close though; I should have a proof (test print) to share with you all ...
January's lighter-than-usual Patreon receipt
Hey hi folks! You may have noticed that you were only charged for around half the usual amount last month. That's on me! Being set to "every two weeks" requires extra attention on my part and I slipped up this time. By the time I noticed it, it was February.This was my mistake (and hones...

December 13th to December 26th
Happy holidays, folks! <3 I hope you've been well.The past two weeks have been a lot and have left me completely exhausted. When I said I always underestimate how much running a Kickstarter takes out of me, I should've applied that to other projects as well. I ended up crashing to a stop, pr...
