Update on reward/life/mental health (DELUXE tier please read bold!)

Hello, gooeycandy here!

First of all, the Constantine piece is half complete, and I'm trying my best to find the drive/energy to complete it.

I wanted to be transparent about my recent lack of new content. My mental health has been at a very low point recently, along with other personal issues getting in the way of productivity. I have been searching for a more stable job, but the job market is incredibly tough right now.

Artistic burnout & wrist pain has also been rampant. So for a little while, I'm going to try to take it easy art-wise, and cut down on my amount of side-projects. This includes slow down on Hands On game, my visual novel, RedBubble stuff & commissions.

I still intend to complete every monthly piece! And I apologize if they take a bit longer than usual.

Thank you for your constant support. I'm sorry I can't create as much as I would like to, I'm getting on top of my mental health situation to the best of my ability. Hopefully it won't be too long till I'm back up to full productivity.

If you are in the Deluxe ($8) tier, I HIGHLY recommend dropping down to the regular tier, because I don't see myself focusing on much more than the monthly piece for the next few months. If you wish to continue at the $8 tier, even with lack of benefits, I am very grateful.

tldr: life is catching up with me and I need to slow down, I will still do monthly piece related rewards to the best of my ability, likely not much else until I'm back on my feet.

Thanks for reading!

Thank you, I appreciate it!! Unfortunately I can't pause pledges cause this is my only source of income, so one way or another that monthly piece needs to get done x(

gooeycandy

Thank you so much! I will try my best!

Please take the time you need. No one is an art machine able to turn it on and off like a switch. If it gets really bad, just pause pledges and take complete time off. We are still here.

Take care of yourself! My support isn’t contingent upon a specific amount of “content.” I’m proud of you for taking care of yourself and so appreciative of everything you do. You’re an amazing artist who brings a ton of joy into my life.

Bro, you only got one life and it's good to focus on it when necessary. I'm sure people who truly support you wouldn't mind you taking things easy to get your head back in place. You've been getting a bunch of content out these months and there is nothing wrong with a more slow few months. You'll always be your worst critic so keep that in mind when worrying if you're doing enough or not in our eyes. All that said, i truly wish you the best in these difficult times.
