Announcement: Revamp to Jackary Archives, Plan for December, and New Daily Chat Posts

Hey everyone. As you know, another month has passed and I imagine $7 members are feeling a bit bummed that I didn't post Jackary Archives posts this month. The month just got away from me, and like usual, had entirely flown by before I finished blinking.

Between this and last month, it became clear to me that the current system I have for Jackary Archives is not a good fit for the new lifestyle I have in my full-time job.

Each Archives Post was planned out in advance over a calendar, with a lot of deliberation to ensure there was variety, and accompanied with a sizable paragraph or three of text. Unfortunately, it takes hours and hours to prepare a months' worth of these, and it's just enough work to feel intrusive and grate against my ADHD-ass sensibilities for me to wing it.

So I'll be shifting to a new system for Jackary Archives, and changing the nature of these daily posts.

Jackary Archive Changes

Here's what will change:

• Jackary Archives posts will be chosen randomly each day from a pot instead of being pre-planned -- this may result in a little more repetition than before but will make it much easier for me to take care of it on the daily.

• I'll be eliminating longer descriptions about the art -- I may provide a litte bit of context but will no longer be expounding my thoughts in great detail

• I will instead be accompanying each Archives Post with a little discussion prompt that I invite you to respond to!

Because of my new job, and the tightness of my queue, I haven't been able to run polls for you guys and I know that's a major selling point of the $7 tier. Polls will eventually return when my queue is cleared, but until then, I'd love to be able to interact more with my Patrons and get to know you guys better. I'm not very active on social media anymore, so this will be one of the only places online where I'll be connecting with people.

I know a lot of you signed up for this because you like boobies, not to be my friend, but for all you $7 members who'd be interested in connecting with me more, Jackary Archives posts will now be a way to do that!

December Plans

So, I promise I will be drawing more in December. November was crazy and I wasn't really able to "start" doing art again after my break until halfway through the month. And then, I was starting some new projects, finishing up some variants, and progressing current pieces, so I never ended up finishing a piece this month. And then I flew to my in-laws' for a fairly long Thanksgiving trip, where I'm currently residing.

But now that I'm "back" to drawing, I'll be getting more done this month. I plan to finish at least two pieces, Goth Purah and Pajama Aqua. Here's a little peek at a more-rendered Purah!

Additionally, I would like to get several more pieces sketched and planned out, so I can go full-speed on their rendering in January. Here's what's in the pipeline:

• Aerith/Terra outfit swap/pastel goth

• Moody atmospheric Hilda/Zelda ALBW companion pieces

• R18 Link/Zelda Scene (TOTK)

• Tender Ivy x Alear piece

Let me know if you have any additional questions!
