IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT about the foreseeable future
🕑 Added 2021-07-01 17:12:13 +0000 UTCFirst of all, thank you all very much for the support these past years. I started drawing DID art in 2015 and now I'm doing it as a job. I never could have done that without all of you--whether you're a patron or a casual fan.
Later this month, I will be moving abroad and getting married. Because of immigration laws in my new country, I will not be allowed to work until I file for and receive employment authorization, which I've heard can have quite a long processing time. In effect, I'm not allowed to make any money.
Because of this, I will be suspending all paid activities until further notice starting July 21. This includes Patreon, Gumroad, Ko-Fi and commissions.
What does this mean in practice?
On Patreon, I will no longer be accepting new patrons as of the above date and monthly charges will be suspended for existing patrons. Existing patrons will still be able to access content they have already paid for one way or another (this requires some workarounds that I'll have to figure out at the time of the shutdown.) There will not be a character submission post this month, because obviously there will be no poll next month.
There will still be a Monthly Damsel and Yearbook requests for July. The latter may take longer to roll out.
Discord titles for existing patrons will remain, along with private channel access.
On Gumroad, all sets will be unpublished as of the above date, but there will be a sale (see below).
On Ko-Fi, I will no longer be accepting donations as of the above date.
Commissions are closed and will remain closed. Commissions currently in the queue will be finished.
But I still want your stuff! What do I do?
My Patreon will remain open until the date noted above. You are encouraged to save whatever content you want to have before the shutdown, since I don't know the exact way that continued access will work yet.
Additionally, you can get 50% off on all Gumroad sets except for "Midnight Muzzled" and the upcoming July Monthly Damsel set by entering the code bonvoyage on checkout.
Will you be okay during the hiatus? What will you be doing?
I'll still be drawing, just not any paid projects. I'm sure my productivity level will go down a bit, because my ADD means I work better when I have deadlines and consequences for missing them. I'm also going to focus on bigger projects I haven't been able to work on due to paid obligations, which I won't be able to release right away.
I'm also still going to be streaming, probably more than before and in better timeslots.
It's going to suck not having the income from drawing, but my fiancé and I have a good amount saved up. If you'd like to give me a bit extra, though, that would be SUPER appreciated. Please don't hesitate to up your pledge for this month or donate on Ko-Fi.
When will you be back?
I don't know for sure, because the processing time for immigration-related stuff can be rather erratic. When I do come back though, it will be with a vengeance--I'm going to learn a lot of new stuff during the downtime, and I'm going to revamp the way I release content so it'll be even better.
Once again, thanks for all the support, and I'll see you on the other side. Rosie rollin' out <3
