Update and Temporary Changes (Burnout Sucks)
🕑 Added 2025-03-24 20:29:46 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
I've got a few updates regarding myself and the release schedule of content that I wanted to make you all aware of.
Due to a combination of IRL and work related matters (my drawing tablet breaking down being a big one), I've been hit fairly hard with burnout this month. I've been trying to push through, but have reached the point where I feel my work is suffering for it. I’ve discussed this with my assistants, and we've decided that it would be for the best to take this week off.
This will not affect any posts or polls that are going out for the rest of the month, however for those of you on the $10 tier, I will be rescheduling this month's second Private Sketch Stream to Sunday the 30th at 4pm EST and posting the sketches on Monday the 31st.
We have also decided that we will continue posting pieces 5 times every 2 weeks until I feel life has settled down again and work is going smoothly. I want to get back to posting 3 times every week, however I feel I shouldn't commit to it until I know I can keep up with it again.
The final thing that will be temporarily changed is that Continuation and Prequel Polls will be for single character pieces only. Much like with the number of posts going out, this change will only last until I feel ready to allow multiple character pieces back into these polls. I'm okay with allowing multi character pieces in the Explicit Edits Poll for now, but if for some reason that changes I'll be sure to let everyone on the $5 and $10 tiers know.
I hope you all understand why we've made these decisions. Thank you all for your support, and I hope to come back to working on drawing fat girls next week feeling refreshed and motivated!

Everyone needs to recharge their batteries now and then. Ultimately everyone's going to be the most happy with the workload that works best for you.

That's completely fair. Hope everything goes better soon! :)

Thanks for the honest update about your burnout, we all really appreciate it!! Also, good job prioritizing yourself and your mental health over your work; self-care is always a top priority! I hope you enjoy yourself week off, and that you’re able to get the rest and relaxation you’re looking for from it!! 😁✨

Honestly your output is insane so dialing it back a bit is no problem at all

Take as much time as you need to rest and recover.

Lowkey wish we were cyborgs so that we don't have to burnout ever again.

Multi character thing's a good call honestly. I'm surprised they were ever eligible in the first place

Burnout is the worst man, as a creative I can relate. Take all the time you need.

Please take all the time you need! Your mental health and satisfaction with the quality of your art is very important, and 5 pieces in two weeks is more than enough!

Sorry to hear about the burnout; it's never fun for the creative process. Hopefully things get better for you sooner rather than later, but take as much time as you need.

Take the time you need, and feel free to extend as necessary. Burnout is a pain in the ass but something we all experience after a while, so rest, recover, and feel like your best in the meantime.

Please take care of yourself. Your work is truly appreciated, but I seriously doubt any of your fans would ever fault you for taking some time for yourself. ❤️

Do what you need to, I'm struggling with the same thing a bit atm. Take some R&R, completely unplug, and get yourself in order :)

Hoping you're able to return well rested!

No worries Salt, you can come back whenever you want. It’s always okay to take a time off and relax. <3
