Big Changes Coming

Okay everyone. Open talk time. My content has slowed down, and the quality is suffering. If any of you have noticed it, nobody has said anything, and I truly appreciate the support and belief that things will start looking up again.  That being said, I am making an official statement here and now explaining what's been going on, and the reasons behind the content drought. If anyone here doesn't really care what's going on with me, and how I'm doing, that's fine. I'm not stopping making content, I enjoy this far too much, and the responses and support I receive from all of you genuinley make me feel so happy. I never expected to have fans for anything, let alone a community, friends, and people who are willing to PAY to see my work. My mind is constantly blown by the sheer level of support here, and I appreciate it so SO much. 

 The fact of the matter is that I am a very flawed individual. I suffer from several disabilities and mental afflictions, but the main ones in the way are Depression and Split Focus. I used to churn out content at a rapid pace, a pace that was unsustainable, and Since then I've had several life events that have shown me that I cannot treat this slower pace as a temporary thing until life stops getting in the way, because nothing being in the way is unrealistic. I had some physical issues that scared me, I came back, I started questionming my gender identity, which sent me into a long period of depression where I couldn't bring myself to get out of my bed, but I got to the bottom of it, came out, and now that depression is being replaced with stress trying to figure out how things are going to work, but I was still able to work on things.

Then my uncle died. It was the first funeral that I ever attended and again, it made me feel low and hard to motivate for a while. I'm finally getting back on track, but it's so close to the end of the month, and I have released zero content on patreon. So now the stress levels are high because I can't just not release anything, and I can't just not charge for the month, because I literally rely on that money to survive.  Now we get into the issue of Split Focus. I have ideas and plans for girls to corrupt: bimbos, gals, whores, forcibly controlled girls, girls who are unconventionally tortured, I have plans for all of them. But these big new ideas either go public, which hurts the patreon value, or they go to patreon, and severely hamper the set's reach. I end up having to churn out pieces that I don't want to work on to upload to patreon, but that's not a good way to run things, because apart from a few, It's mainly tests, scraps, or sets that I find incredibly dissappointing, but I upload them anyway, because of time pressure. And once they're done, I find it hard to bring my mind back to the original plan. This is why the next chapter of the Senran Kagura set has taken so long to make. 

 So where does that leave us? It means that the way I upload content has to change. Starting next month, every set I produce will be exclusive to Patreon for a period of time. This means that I only have to focus producing one set at a time, and I can make them good, and things that I want to make. After one month, the sets will be released to Pixiv for the public. This way there are no sets that are exclusive forever, and everyone gets all content, but the people who want to pay to support me will get the sets earlier.

I will change the tiers of the patreon to match these changes, and while the requests chat will remain open, please be aware that requests are not "I will make you this content every month" but instead a direct line for ideas and possibly single images, not entire sets monthly. These are NOT free commissions. I am stating this now because a few people seem to not understand this. REQUESTS ARE NOT GARUANTEED SETS, NOR ARE THEY COMMISSIONS. 

 I truly believe this change will help me to produce better sets, and removing the patreon exclusivity opens my work to a wider audience. I hope that this change isn't too much for you, and that you continue to support me while I try to figure all this out. As always, Feel free to message me if you have any questions, or just want to talk. Hearing from you all motivates me to keep trying to do my best. This ends the announcement, Beeps out <3
