Going forward.

I'm so happy to see all of the wonderful reception toward book 1. It warms my heart to hear all of the kind words.
However, I've hit a bit of a roadblock in terms of what I should do going forward with this Patreon. There won't be any builds of a novel released for a long time as I'll be polishing up the assets for book 1 so I can prepare for book 2. I also wanted to draw up reference sheets for some of the important characters (Lyall, Richter, Adrius etc.) Along with that I would like to keep uploading art and stuff like that. I've realized that over the past 3 years I've drawn significantly less things for myself that aren't assets for the novel. I want to do cool posters with characters and stuff like that and maybe even sell them as prints. Most of all, I really want to post my progress for redesigning/revising every sprite in the novel. Some characters will be getting better lines/poses while others will get better designs/clothing.
The point I'm trying to make I guess is that I want to continue to supply everyone here with content, but I just don't know how to go about it. Would would each tier get? It's very hard for me to make these decisions.
Furthermore, I will be a lot busier with work outside of Lyre from this point on. I've found a stable job that I really enjoy which allows me to work on certain parts of Lyre while I'm there.
Soon I'm going to make the *official* public announcement for book 2 once everything settles down and most have had time to read the final build. After that I'll also announce the production of the definitive edition of Lyre with improved assets and extra scenes and a bunch of other neat stuff.
So I'll be uploading all these things along with progress with revisions over time. I just need to figure out which tiers will get what, but honestly I'm thinking about keeping it the same way, where silver tier will get updates on sprite revisions, gold tiers will get updates on CG revisions + sprite revisions and then diamond tiers will get updates to both along with seeing posters and illustrations early and voting on which ones are made first (instead of the sketch polls). Then, everyone will get to see the reference sheets. Does that sound good?
Also, poll below, but I wanted to know which reference sheet you all would like for me to make first. I think I know the answer, but be assured that each character will get a sheet soon.

Character FAQ that is answered in character? π€ Would be a fun idea.
