March Update!

Hi everyone!  Firstly, thanks for all the support!  Whether you're here for the stories, the podcasts, the art, the pictures, or just the great company, having such a great network of supporters and (dare I say) friends has been an amazing experience!  We've formed amazing relationships because of the S&P Patreon and there's really no way we can convey how happy we are to have you all here. 💜 

So I just wanted to touch on some things going on that you might have missed, plus some upcoming things!

1.) Pics.  Sophie has taken a lot of pictures recently for a myriad of different reasons.  One was the Usual Bet photoshoot she promised back in October.  You might have seen some samples of these photoshoots on her Twitter @TheUsualSophie. But if you want to see all the photos of Sophie dressed up as a dolly or playing outside in the snow in her diaper, all that is on the Discord in the #starling-pics channel. ^_^

2.) Art!  Sophie has drawn three new things this month, which may be a record.  And Chloe's mommy has posted 5 more arts she's made.  Plus a lot of commissions from amazing community artists for Sophie (because she values supporting content creators more than her own financial security). All those are in the Discord #starling-art channel if you want to check them out.

3.) Academy Works.  We just wrapped up Academy T, which seems to be a fan favorite.  I mean, who doesn't like baby towns where you gradually lose your intelligence?  But more importantly: what is next?  Well, we rushed AT a little, so the next story might be a few weeks (maybe a month?) off.  The editing process for these is far more intensive than other stories, but we promise it's coming.  And in good faith (and to see if anyone actually reads these updates), we'll even give you the name of the next one: Academy K!

4.) Anno.  This is still going!  We released four back-to-back chapters the other day, and Sophie's girlfriend is in town so there might not be another chapter until next week.  But we want everyone to know that this story is still going strong and we've got a lot of content still to release.  As a bit of a teaser: we start exploring other characters' motivations in future chapters.  Like, why does Hannah do what she does?  Why did she hire Anno in the first place?  Can we have more history on Nix's deific fae-like skillset?  Stay tuned!

5.) The Usual Bet.  Going strong.  Not much of an update.  Sometimes we don't know what to talk about but the moment that microphone is in front of us we manage to make stuff that people enjoy!  We're still trying to come up with a cool contest or game for this year, similar to the Padcast Padding Giveaway or Diaper Design Contest.  So stay tuned for more of that.  Also, mini episodes will be continuing for the foreseeable future! 

6.) The Changing Tabletop.  This channel has been offline for a while, but it isn't forgotten.  Truthfully we probably don't have the time or energy to pick it back up anytime soon, but we do have an idea of playing a Mystery Mansion style RPG game.  Something more long-term instead of small one-shots.  But this might not see the light of day for a long time.

7.) 300 Patrons.  We talked about this briefly before, but should we reach 300 patrons our goal is to play our Usual Bet Potty Training game for 300 hours.  That is... about 12-13 days.  This will include a lot of pants-wetting and diapers I'm sure!  We've been steadily increasing our numbers for the past few months, but in January we broke 250!  :D

Okay, that's it!  And thanks again for all the love and support over these past... 5 years?  That can't be right.......

With endless appreciation,
~The Starling House (Sophie, Pudding, Chloe, Kimmy, & Liv)
