Going on Break (Hiatus for the Time Being)
🕑 Added 2021-10-24 22:10:58 +0000 UTCHey there, I'm sorry that over the past few months Patreon updates have been far more unpleasant than I would have liked. I'll try to keep the explanation short, but I'm sure from the title you'll already understand the gist of it: As of now, I'm putting the Patreon on pause, and will continue to keep it paused until I find the time to commit to it again.
The main reason for this is that I really can't continue the Patreon under my current circumstances. I have a lot of things going on right now, both on and offline, and while the Patreon has never been the greatest source of work I need to do at any given time, the extra time and energy I need to put aside for it has not been there for a while. It's not like I didn't enjoy working on the artwork, and the ideas I you submitted gave me a way to work on drawings I probably never would have touched, otherwise. But right now I'm running on fumes on any given day, and I feel like burnout is very likely unless I start taking steps to mitigate it. I certainly would like for things to change on my end, but as of now all I can really do is take some weight off my shoulders, and unfortunately the Patreon is one of those weights.
Of course, this isn't the end of me drawing. I'll be opening up commissions again very soon, and I'll still be posting on Twitter, FA, and dA. I also don't want to call this the end of the Patreon, because while conditions aren't good for it now, I may decide to push forward with it in the future once things have turned around on my end. I also still plan to fulfill all outstanding rewards; I may be slow, but I hate leaving things unfinished.
I think that's all I really have to say. I'm sorry if this has left anyone disappointed, but I hope you understand that this is a decision I didn't make lightly. I'm incredibly appreciative for all the support you all gave me, and if all goes well I hope to revive this page in the near future.
If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me a message or reply to this post, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you all again for supporting my artwork!

Take care of yourself ;w;/ Hope I can support you by buying a commission in the meantime!

That’s very understandable. However, I subbed to patreon to support you as an artist, so I wish you would at least keep billing on! I just want you to have my money since I like your stuff! Guess I’ll just have to score a commission then
