UPDATE MEGATHREAD 🎉

Hello everyone!👋💀💕

I have some big updates ahead, so I am compiling everything here - so please take a read if you have any questions!⬇️

I am happy to announce that my amazing web dev Ash ( twitter.com/ashworksco Many thanks to them!) has been an absolute champ and we are ready to launch mickeyandjessica.com (The site is live but not populated with pages yet) next week!

🎉 mickeyandjessica.com will go live with Issue 1 free to read on May 23rd! 🎉

It will include:

• All of Issue 1 free to read
• Weekly scheduled updates from Issue 2 onward
• Disqus comments
• Character bios
• Gallery

You will be able to access previous Issues for free as they are released on the site - but the latest Issue will still only exist here on Patreon or as an early access perk for members.

This is all thanks to your support! Everyone here on Patreon has made this comic possible to thrive and now it can be shared with other like-minded folks!🙇🎉💕

As always, previous issues will still be available to purchase in PDF format in my shop!

🎉 Hamletmachine.com will go live in July 2023 🎉 (404 in the meantime)

This will be a main hub of collected art, updates, and host a membership service.

It will include:

• Archive of older work (fandoms of the past, OCs that don’t have a collected space yet, a whole collection of stuff that was deleted from social media)
• Updates and event news
• Hamletmachine.com will host a membership service

Yes - a personal, independently hosted, private subscription service that will function very much like what you have here, but completely free of suspension threats etc. You will be able to:

• See early/exclusive artwork
• Receive updates via email
• Have access to DMs
• A Discord space especially for members! (Yes, finally!)

You will be able to join for free and receive a newsletter with updates and art! If you are interested in membership perks, you can purchase a subscription to access them. You can join/unjoin whenever - absolutely no pressure!

This was the biggest update to undertake! When Patreon suspended my account back in March, Ash and I had to switch gears on hamletmachine.com to transition it from an archive to a fully functional subscription service - it took more time to finish, but I think the investment is worth it in the end to have a protected space.

If you do not want to transfer to my site from Patreon for convenience, I completely understand - my Patreon will still exist alongside my own service and I will be posting to both at the same time - but more content will be allowed on hamletmachine.com.

If you know anyone available for Discord admin and modding who would be a good fit and is interested, please email me: nightmarelandpress@gmail.com It will be paid work!🎉

PDF FAQS ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

Please read this section carefully if you have any questions! ⬇️

Lucifer’s Garden

DMs will be sent out to qualifying members with an access code in July!

It will also be available for purchase to all in my shop in PDF format at that time!

If you want to check your availability: it will be released to all Third Tier members who were active for at least one month during production. (March 2020 - August 2021)

I’ll be sharing the link as part of my website launch! I think it’ll be a nice way to celebrate~

Also, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the physical - I know a lot of sweet folks have been waiting for a physical book release but I’m afraid I don’t have any updates on this yet. I’m so sorry to disappoint you - I understand you’ve been waiting, but I hope you will understand and enjoy it in digital format for now.

Pain Killer 1

The link to this PDF was already sent out to members and has been completed, thank you!

If you want to read/buy Pain Killer 1, it’s available in both digital and physical formats in my shop:

https://the-starfighter-shop.myshopify.com/

Pain Killer 2

There is no link to a PDF for this yet because the comic is still in progress!

If you want to check your availability, please refer to the Tier descriptions: https://www.patreon.com/HamletMachine/membership

“Patrons at this level will a receive a free PDF of the finished comic if you are an active member of this tier for at least *2 months* during the comic's production.”

When the comic is complete, DMs with access codes will be sent out.

Personal Summary:

Juggling the different projects behind the scenes on top of the art schedule I expect from myself has admittedly been a challenge - I apologize for the slower comic page delays in this regard! But thankfully, the endeavors myself and my creative partners have been working on are finally able to be released, so I’ll be able to focus more on updates! I want to be as transparent and accessible as possible so I’ll be available for correspondence if you’ll have any questions about any changes, etc!

⬇️

Lastly, I’ll be taking off as usual for the month of June! My Patreon will be paused - members, you do not need to do anything, you will not be charged!

TL;DR

• Mickeyandjessica.com launches on May 23rd with all of Issue 1 free to read and weekly updates there after
• *I’M OFF JUNE*
• Hamletmachine.com launching in July with new subscription service
• Lucifer’s Garden PDF being released to patrons AND available in digital format in my shop

Whew, okay I think that is it for now, but I will be making more announcements when I come back from break in July!😂

You are all the reason I am now able to transfer work to a personal site, host work for free, and also make space for members to have exclusivity and stability! From the bottom of my heart, thank you - I truly appreciate it and consider myself extremely fortunate to have your support. 🙇💕🎉

I am really happy to make these announcements as the next step forward as an artist - thank you so much for your patience, support, and understanding!💕
