Patreon Billing Paused - and an update
🕑 Added 2021-07-21 20:57:26 +0000 UTCHello everyone! I hope you're all doing well!
You might have gotten a notification that I paused the billing for this Patreon, so I just wanted to explain what that means and why. If you're currently a patron, you won't be charged for the upcoming billing cycle, and I plan on pausing the billing for future months as well. I haven't been producing as much content as I would like to be, and I realize that it isn't fair to continue collecting money from you all when I haven't been consistent with uploads or communication. I want to apologize for that and thank you for all the support you've given me regardless.
I'm behind on current rewards as well, but I want to reassure you that I will be completing everything that I owe you, including thank you notes and patron-suggested videos! I have a list of everything and am slowly working my way through it. This pause in billing will also help me catch up and make everything right. That said, if you have any problems or concerns, please feel free to let me know!
Again, I want to apologize for the inconsistency. I've been a bit overwhelmed by some things in my personal life, and I let it go too far instead of fixing everything and getting my productivity back on the right track. Thank you for always being patient with me, and I really hope you are doing well and treating yourself with kindness.
I'm hoping to have a new video out in the next week, and will continue to work on all the videos that have won past polls.
Thank you for reading this, and as always thank you for supporting me!

some day you will forget to pause the donations. And we will do the unthinkable.... give you money!.....The horror. 0.0

Did you look into the option to change your charging type from monthly to "per creation" ? With that you could keep Patreon online without feeling to much pressure https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002137871-How-per-creation-billing-works

It seems to have unpaused- is this deliberate to mean potential content coming, or did she just forgor to pause it again?

thanks for the update, but I would be happy to continue my sponsorship if you do decide to reconsider. I don't feel like you owe me anything. I donate voluntarily as a coin into a street musicians hat as it were, not as a commission. Don't feel guilty about anything.

Also congrats on recent events. Just discovered your content and want you to know you're the first English speaking asmrtist I've enjoyed listening to and I've been consuming your content at a scary rate. Particularly liked the angel one.

Congrats on recent events- but I have to ask, have you decided what it might or might not mean for the future of this channel?
Honestly I'd keep paying even if you had a delay. Your content is worth the wait. Take all the time you need!

Your videos are great and all but I'd much rather see you take a break than stress yourself out. Take some time off and sort everything out, long as you need.

Take as much time as you need. I honestly don't do patreon for the rewards, those are just nice bonuses. I do it to support the people whose content I enjoyed, so they have the opportunity to keep going.

take all the time you need Lily! thank you for content that you've already given us, the patron support for me is honestly just my personal way of saying thank you anyway, so don't feel like you owe us anything. take care of yourself and most importantly be happy! no rush with your content, what comes first is your health and happiness. stay safe, rest well!

It's okay Lily I wouldn't mind giving you money anyway, since everything you created so far is so great; I hope you're ok though and don't force yourself in any way, take care.

Please take your time and take care of yourself! I love your content, it brings me much joy and I don't mind pauses- I'd even keep supporting through them because I'll keep listening to past content anyway, but I can understand how that might not feel right. I appreciate the thoughtfulness of your decision. I wish you success and hope for your speedy return!

Your health and personal life comes first and foremost, take care of yourself Lily. I don't mind waiting so take all the time you need, I'll be here when you get back and I know I'm not the only one 💕

Hey Lily, don't stress yourself out too much, your personal life has priority. I love every single one of your videos and I wouldn't mind waiting a bit longer, only because you're dealing with personal stuff. Much Kindness and Love

I hope you're doing well, and the issues you write about will be positively resolved. I'm more concerned about you than your productivity, to be honest. I consider you a friend (sorry for my boldness), and so far, you've given me a lot of wonderful content. Thank you for the honest update! Just don't burn yourself out, or exploit your health.
