Pausing Payments Temporarily

Added 2022-07-07 23:14:00 +0000 UTC

Hey all!

It has been about one year and two months since I opened this Patreon. During that time, I’ve made 64 videos. I averaged one video a week in 2023, which is enormous for animated content. I barely scrapped anything, even wacky ideas that I was only 10% sure of.

In the past three months, I’ve had severe burnout. I've been unable to create effectively or much at all, even great ideas for things I’m fully capable of making.

I care greatly about you folks and the support you give, to the point of my own detriment. I often feel guilty when I don’t post after two weeks or if I post a video I liked making when I know it isn’t what people like.

So what's happening?

I have decided to pause Patreon billing indefinitely; you won't be charged during the break, but my page and videos will still be accessible.

Will there still be videos/comics?

Nothing has technically changed. I will still post any size art that I happen to make, but I will create at my own pace without outside pressure. Everything posted during this break is free!

I will resume the payments when I intend to start posting regularly and feel I’ve regained my passion & quality.

Thanks for the support thus far. I hope you’ll stick around while I fix this hiccup.

TL;DR - I burned out hard; I want to try making stuff without financial pressure and see what happens. Payments are paused during this time.
