Pausing November billing cycle

Added 2022-10-27 00:25:40 +0000 UTC

Hello again! I'm writing this update to inform you all that billing on my page will be paused next month, i.e. you won't be charged your pledge amount on November 1st. There's a few reasons for this:

Output has been very slow on my end, and I dislike running a charity. I just don't think it'd be fair to continue billing given I wasn't able to finish a single new animation in September or October. (As members of the 5$+ tier know, the Snap Pack contribution was actually already done way back in June.)

There are a number of IRL matters that have begun taking up significantly more time on my end that won't slow down anytime soon. That said, I don't actually feel that is the real culprit behind things slowing down but merely a contributing factor.

To be totally honest, motivation for art has taken a nosedive on my end. I feel like I need a longer break to reassess what it is I actually want to do with my acquired art + animation skills.

There's a very good chance I will restructure the Patreon page next month, but I need a little more time to fully figure out the "how".

Oh, and in case anyone's worried, this is not related to my (mental) health. I've been steadily improving since April and have been in good spirits the last couple of weeks.

Finally, I want to take the moment to say thanks, because I feel like I don't actually do that enough. Whether you're a current or past supporter, it really means a lot to me that in your eyes my small animation clips are worth pledging money for. Thank you, genuinely!
