Hello, fellers and fellettes! Long time, no see.

I've been gone for a while, primarily because I sort of accidentally fell deeply into the podcasting space. I started The Snark Tank with Tom Sweeny and SomeBlackGuy and I also started co-hosting Sacred Symbols with Colin and Dustin. I then fell into Constellation, Summon Sign, and other shows. Hours upon hours of content, several times a week, for years. Truthfully, and regrettably, it left me with very little time to dedicate to YouTube videos.

Despite this, I always felt the need to make proper dedicated videos. It's what got me to the point of being able to start podcasting in the first place. Podcasts are fun to do and I'm happy I'm able to provide that for an audience, but me? I don't even personally listen to podcasts. I used to make content for me and hope that other people liked it. Now, I feel like I primarily make content for others while my personal passion projects wither and die on the vine. That's doable for a while, especially when it's logically reinforced by the inherent reliability of the podcasting space over YouTube's broken notification system. But after a while, especially when it's all you do, it begins to feel suffocating.

So here, mere weeks before my 31st birthday, I've finally had enough of not making what I want to make. Hopefully I can jump start this page again and reignite that fun that I've spent the last half decade dedicating to everyone else's projects but mine.

I'm posting here to ping those of you still here so you're not taken by surprise and to give you a chance to jump ship if you so choose. If you choose to stay though, I appreciate you!

I've tweaked the Tiers a little (though more tweaks will come) and updated some other things. There will be another update later this week detailing future plans and sharing some sneak peeks. In the mean time, leave some questions here! I'm planning on doing a little Q&A exclusively for Patreon.

Thanks for your patience. <3

Oh, yeah. And here's a video.
