Starting over: reworking my Patreon.
🕑 Added 2019-06-21 19:33:54 +0000 UTCI'm not gonna make a huge post because I don't think I've earned the right to waste too much of your time, so I'll try to be very quick:
First off, I have to apologize for my lack of activity in here. I've been very busy in general, and I've only been active on Twitter, simply because it's easier to access it on my phone than Patreon. The Patreon App is kinda confusing lol I've been updating my art in there, and that's really unfair.
So yeah, I can only say "I'm sorry" for letting all of you guys down. It's really fucked up to think that people have been supporting me and I couldn't give them the content they thought I could.
I do have some good news, and that's the fact that my situation has improved quite a bit. College is hard and demanding, but my current schedule and grades are giving me now enough of a breather to focus on fandom life, in a way that I haven't been able for the past... year or so.
My health and economical situation has also improved significantly, and that has also inspired me to have a fresh start. I've been thinking about rebranding and doing things right. So I'll be reworking my Patreon page.
I have to admit that the fanfic request experiment was a failure. I started it at a moment where I had significantly more free time and less issues, and it was good for a long time, but ever since life got harder, writing became a luxury that, I've realized, I can't really provide. So I've been thinking of following my friend JaviSuzumiya's example and use this Patreon as an art platform, where I can showcase my art and reward patrons with drawings, because those, I've found, take only a fraction of the time that it takes to write a story.
I'm still gonna post about fanfics and share what I write, but I don't think I can reward people with stories, because it's been proven that I suck at it lol
I've paused this month's billing (meaning that no one will be charged), and I will write one story request that I never got around to finish, but expect to see a reworked Patreon page next week, focused more on art and fanart.
That's all I can really say. I'm looking forward to provide everyone with new, quality content. And thank you all for having some faith in me, and sorry for being active on Twitter rather than here.

No worries man, I get it. I am glad your life has gotten a little more stable. I myself have had to balance school and work this year, so I get where your are coming from.
