New Year Newsletter (and Thank You)
🕑 Added 2024-02-03 02:56:51 +0000 UTCwith the last pages of the lime comic up and the start of february, i'm officially kicking off my break! but before that, I have a few notes for ya~
TL;DR, Short version:
-Billing is Paused until MARCH 1st! So you're not getting charged for FEB
- I won't be posting much/if any art this month as i'm on break
-Suggestions/Polls for March are going to open and run this month. and...
-A BIG THANK YOU to YOU, dear patrons, for a wonderful 2023!!
Longer, mushier version:
So 2023 was quite a year on here. I did a lot of reworking on the backend; added a new tier (explicit), streamed twice a month, upped my monthly singles poll winners to 3 and created a 24 page OC comic! I also hit 40k on twitter and da and rounded out near 400 patrons on here! I cannot express how floored I am by that! Seriously, I start seeing stars when I try to fathom it.
As I take a step back and reflect, I realize how much art I was able to put out last year and it is completely thanks to you guys. Your engagement and enthusiasm with my work drives me to work hard, challenge myself, and improve. Not only has the financial support changed my life, but your comments and feedback on my work has reignited a passion in my art that I hadn't felt since I was in my teens.
SPEAKING OF PASSION, WOW! Thank you SO MUCH for all the support on the Lime comic!!! I am NOT kidding when I say it has been a DREAM come true to have people read, enjoy, and talk about a comic I've created. That support has lit a fire in me! Comics have been my dream job for decades but they've always been an unseen/unread hobby. So to have folks talk about the pages each week?? UNREAL. THANK YOU!! <33 I'll be polishing up the Lime comic for a nice PDF download release in March jsyk
I'm taking February to break from work but also to review last year and to create a roadmap for this year. Not to mention, I do want to return to commission work at some point and I need to figure out how to balance that. I have other ideas for OC comics too. In March, I will return with solid plans for projects for 2024.
Lastly, I just thought it'd be fun to have a compilation of all the poll winners so I made a messy little recap. Look at these girls' funny faces and remember, they exist because of YOUR SUPPORT! LOVE YOU ALL! THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES OVER!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
also, feel free to comment what your favorite pieces from 2023 are!

Momo's Massive Breakthrough was my favorite piece from 2023. Thank you so much for the art this past year. It's been a pleasure seeing your art evolve each month and seeing that passion reignite. Looking forward to what 2024 brings!
