Weekly Schedule Time! (6/18)

Added 2018-06-18 22:13:42 +0000 UTC

Hey, peeps!

It’s been a bit rocky over the last week or so. I’ve been kind of creatively burnt out and tired, but things are going okay, so I’m sure I’ll get to feeling better soon! We’ve still got a lot of stuff to attend to, so let’s have a look at it.

Announcements and Business

(6/4) Update Schedule for Various Happenings to be sporadic for summer.

Due to the amount of work to be done both in reference to my commission work and things around my home, the weekly updates for Various Happenings are going to become a bit sporadic for the next few months while I focus on working down my commission list and straightening out a few things that have been on my to-do list for a while.

I wanted to try for every other week, but a bout of sickness meant that I didn’t quite get to making a full page last week, which was a bit upsetting. Hopefully, since I have time scheduled out, I’ll be able to finish up the page I have in progress and start on the next one so it’ll be up on Friday as per usual.

The comic is not going on complete hiatus; updates will just be slow coming, and I can’t promise a page every Friday. I was considering taking a break AFTER page 100 and finishing the conversation with Lyle, however, it will take another month at least to get there from the current pace, and I need to make time to address my other work for the moment.

If you want to make things easier on me, please consider joining my Patreon, which goes directly into feeding my projects. The minimum is only a buck, and every little bit helps bring my projects to life. I’m hoping one day I’ll be able to support myself on merchandising and crows support rather than having to constantly trawl for commissions and every new patron is one step closer to that goal.

(5/21) Commission Slots OPEN!!

It’s that end of the month AAAAUGH! for rent and all that, so I’m opening up slots! Due to some unexpected money issues (we didn’t get some money that we thought we were getting due to paperwork problems/miscommunication), I’m increasing the remaining number of slots to six (6)!

If you want to commission me, send me a message and we’ll discuss it! If I run out of slots, I’ll put you on the call list so I can get to you once something opens up!

The list is on my spreadsheet, which is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1I7YPp2l2Tg7mIOQCsWZ4qLqTN3fJnX0rQkrCaNK1AXI/edit?usp=sharing

If you want to contact me about commissions you can note me at dA, FA, or Inkbunny (links are at the bottom of this post) or you can e-mail me at commission(at)foxsaliant.com !

Things like the Lil’ Wobbles are still available and don’t count towards the slot count. If you’re interested in those, drop me a line!

As always, I would like to send out my thanks to everyone who supports my Patreon! I’ve got some ideas for things moving forward that you all might like, but for now we’ll see about getting the list checked off before I go about making any changes.

Milestones & Highlights!

Let’s see how things are going!

As of right now:

That’s a lot of numbers!

I’ve been kind of burnt out creatively lately and my will to work on my own projects has been kind of non-existant. I have plenty of ideas and things I want to draw, but getting up the motivation to do so has been difficult, to say the least.

Still, I want to have a comic page done by Friday, and work on some of the Haylee stuff I’ve been putting off. My sleep is getting more regular and I’m doing a bit better as far as my time management goes. Plus, we’ve been able to clean things up around the house a bit, so that’s alright.

Once I get the current set done (the ones that are due by July 8th) I’m thinking about taking a week just to work on my own projects and getting things nice and organized. Wish me luck!

As always, if you want to ask me questions about my work, feel free to e-mail me at sali(at)foxsaliant.com or pm me either here, or at my deviantart or inkbunny (links are below).

If you want to help me out or see stuff that I can’t quite show off yet, feel free to visit my Patreon and contribute! If you just want to help, check out my website over at Foxsaliant.com for general info and donation links! I set up Ko-Fi for those of you who are still skittish about Patreon but want to toss something my way anyway, so if that appeals to you, go ahead and throw something over there!

Midsummer is this week, so I hope you’re all doing well. We’re getting into the hottest part, so try and stay cool out there!
