Important Updates: Taxes and Comic
🕑 Added 2020-06-20 00:06:01 +0000 UTCSo first off Patreon is now making it mandatory to file taxes on all donations
Basically your pledge is now taxed based on what state you live in. I have little control over it aside from setting up the Cookie Fund pledge which makes your pledge 100% donation based and therefore isn't taxed. You can donate as much as you want in that tier if you wish
I've tried to setup the rest where its 5% taxable because digital goods are taxable and the image packs count for that.

The other issue is my comic Cummeleon is now on hiatus again. I've received some messages from people regarding sexualizing a woman of color as a focus for a fetish comic. I haven't addressed this publicly yet but it was not the intention of the comic to be viewed that way. I was trying to create a cute and likable character that is going through an adventure that focuses on her sexuality through her misadventures. I fully support the BLM movement and had not intended to create discourse through my comic. The comic will be on hiatus for awhile as I figure out what to do with it as I have a hard time focusing on it as well as struggling to find time to work on it to the point where I am not enjoying it anymore.
I've been enjoying drawing fanart and working on my image packs (coming soon) and want to continue focusing on that.
You are welcome to adjust or cancel your pledge as you see fit. This is currently my main source of income as all my conventions have been cancelled where I sell my SFW art as well as my etsy store sales have plummeted because of everything going on right now. I appreciate any and all continued support as long as you are safely able to.
The other-other issue I'm having atm is I put my back out on Thursday and have been in alot of pain with it so finding somewhere comfy to sit and work is difficult, compounded with the fact that my 10 yr old nephew is staying with us for 6 weeks and I can't work on Jiggly stuff with him around and usually by the time he's gone to bed I'm exhausted. I'm trying to figure out a better work/life balance as a result but I am slowly getting stuff done. I'm hoping the comic hiatus will make me feel less pressured so I can enjoy drawing the simple belly fats that I want to.
As always I welcome any feedback and pizza.
