News - Dec.2019 - Still Alive

- Not starving yet -  Made more than Rent on Patreon. Not terrible for the "Dry Season" but still only about a third of what we need in total or the month. I had 203 Patrons in June 2018, and processed nearly $1,460 in pledges October in 2018. Currently at 126 and $868.

- CAR RENEWED. We raised enough, thanks to a few very generous friends, to get the car fixed, re-inspected, registered, and insured, in time to stop the ticket. We do owe about $90 in court costs, but it would . So as long as we don't get pulled over again, we should be okay for about a year.

- I'm not quite dying. The good news: I don't need surgery for my liver. The bad news: I have an enlarged liver (NAFLD). And I'm going to be doubling down on dieting and employing more lifestyle changes to improve my health. Thus far, results show promise, but I have a LONG way to go.

Thank you! Because you keep the lights on and food on the table every month. 

- Special Thanks to Justin, Moose, Paul, Despia, and Melody, for your Platinum and higher pledges. You guys are literally about 40% of the support we have for the month. Thanks to you and all my patrons for your love and support. ♥️ 

-We Need Your Help Every Month - Because we count on your support to survive. My Patreon work pays the rent and (on a good month) for some of our groceries. Your pledges allow me to do the art I love and share it with you and the others who enjoy it. Both my wife and I do Patreon and FA related work for a living, so it's 100% up to our commissions and posts to keep us going. Your pledges put food on the table.  

- FNAB2 update: Episode 4 is on hold still while I'm working on the "Doe in Distress" animation... Which hasn't moved much due to the recent health and financial commission catch-up. The past few months have been a nightmare, but we're trying to keep going...

- Lina's Work: Lina's fursuiting Patreon (and soon, her ADULT ONLY Subscribe Star) and voice commissions are another important part of our income, and we're trying to find her more clients and Patrons. Check out her sexy fursuit/voice Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/linapilchard
