May the 4th Be With You
🕑 Added 2022-05-05 07:51:11 +0000 UTCOkay a day late but saves me thinking up a title for the monthly journal. XD
So last month I did say I would make real life changes to help improve the flow of updates and I would say for the most part, it's been working. There has been the odd quiet period but it's getting there. Of course there are still real life things that can take me away from content creating that's can't be ignored however I have felt on multiple times last month so energized to what that day's update would be and that's very positive.
While real life things haven't been too frequent, my gf did get quite ill towards the end of the month, hence the period between the last update and now. Being a long distance relationship, it can make one feel quite powerless when only your words can help with the healing process and can't physically hug them. Her and my debt are my reasons for the big shake up in ensuring more regular updates and more features all round, so I can finally pay off that debt and fly to go see her again. Its still a very long road but the more features, content, ad options I have, the more I can get closer to those goals.
So as well as that content boost, this month I'm aiming to introduce a few more things
1. A Discord you can join at a certain tier to get more direct updates and discussion among other members. Likely the $5 tier just so its not overwhelmed with too many members in one go.
2. Other free galleries to promote myself. Got a few in mind but if there are any you know that I've not yet joined booming with people, be sure to send a suggestion.
3. 2 new alternatives to Patreon and Fanbox, namely Deviantart Subs and one other. These will have no difference to Patreon/Fanbox and it more a preference thing. They will be at 1 sole higher tier as they charge on the day you subscribe rather than the 1st of every month (And in DA's case, you have to wait an additional 2 weeks to withdraw funds.) but again, all content will be the same.
But we'll see how we go, was hoping to introduce these last month but stuff kinda happened as always.
Not much else to report. Those on monthly reward tiers do send your requests for the month of May and I'll add them to the list, and will chip away at the backlog even more.
Continue to all be cool cats everyone! Let's make some May Art Memories! :)
