Update: My thanks, and my plans
🕑 Added 2018-12-15 05:18:53 +0000 UTC Alright everyone, first things first, you are all incredible.Thank you so much to everyone who threw in at such short notice to help this show survive while I figure out what to do in the absence of ad revenue. It's been a huge hit to my income, and will make it very hard to pay for the services that make it possible for me to produce this show as a one-man team.
All of you have provided me with the security I need to just barely land on my feet, and with this momentum I'm going to keep on running.
After a lot of cogitation, and with your clear support behind me, I've decided on a change in plans:
Rather than rallying everyone from the main channel to come buoy up the show here on Patreon in the face of this crisis, I'm going to continue with the show as usual.
After I release this short story video and give things a little time to settle—time to be extra sure this isn't just going to get resolved—I'll move forward with the Patreon drive I've been planning this whole time for January.
There's special exclusive merch that'll only be available to existing and new patrons over the course of February, which I'm super excited for all of you to get your hands on. And now it'll be extra special as a symbol of what we're all achieving together without Google's help.
Additionally, I've opened up talks with some possible sponsors which should give the show the longevity in needs in the coming months.
All of this together should be enough to save Tale Foundry. So everybody hold your breath until the end of January. I know I am.
And again, thank you all for being here when I—and the show overall—needed you most. It's an incredible thing to have such a loving, supportive community around this thing I've made. It may sound strange coming from a stranger, but the love I feel for all of you is real. Perhaps not personal, but real.
Thank you all. ❤️
