"What's up with FK?" Update
Added 2023-03-11 00:17:13 +0000 UTCHey everybody--first off thank you -SO- so much for sticking around...
I promise I'm not slacking; I've had next to zero time for artwork in over a week and it's crushing my soul. IRL has taken completely over for a bit but it's winding down...just in case those of you don't know, having a new human to look after is immensely time-consuming and draining for the first little bit, especially as wife is not at 100% yet. I now understand why some countries have massive maternity leaves and even paternity leaves too.
That being said, my parents flew in to help us out for a week. However they're using my office to crash and so I'm relegated to iPad use, which is fine, but I don't really have a desk space to use with it. All in all, adult material is hard to do as well. So, I've been planning and writing out/finalizing the final pages of the comic, and doing some sci-fi story writing and planning as well. It kind of sucks cause it's not really stuff I can post, per-se, but will pay off in the future.
The Ayn dakis have also arrived! But our house is a mess, and with visitors and bigger family, it's been REAL difficult to access them and start sending out. I had hoped to this week, but it will have to wait until next.
All that being said, I'm not going to leave March dry with art updates--they're just going to come a lot in the second half here. I also know I haven't gotten Feb's ZIP files up yet either, been living in the hospital for like 5 days when the month turned.
Anyway, that's what's up with me, and my current plans and schedule. I appreciate y'all's patience, and while some of you say 'don't worry over it', well.. I do, lol. It can't be helped, I want your support to be known it's appreciated and helping me make this artwork, so keeping you all updated is the least I can do.
Mahalo nui loa -- thank you all so incredibly much.

2023-03-13 19:29:39 +0000 UTCSo happy for you both. I know worry is inevitable but art hardly matters at a time like this. Go dad it up, we'll be here when you're ready.

2023-03-13 07:32:31 +0000 UTCCongrats on the baby. Yes, they do take up 125% of your time for the first several months. It is totally understandable that you do not have much else accomplished.

2023-03-11 21:01:05 +0000 UTCDude, real life takes priority, especially when it comes to taking care of a new born. No need to worry about us, you just focus on being a good dad. :P

2023-03-11 12:23:07 +0000 UTCTotally understand the situation. Becoming a new parent is VERY time consuming and I doubt your folks wanna see the NSFW stuff you do. So just keep taking it easy and if you have to, do some quirky doodles of the characters or some of your characters in general. I'm sure others will agree that seeing your art, even as random doodles, is just as good as seeing the comics you put out. 😊🤙 Na ka maluhia e hoʻopau i kou puʻuwai ʻoluʻolu

2023-03-11 01:02:50 +0000 UTCOh shit, I missed you having a child! Congratz my dude, and take care. Being a parent is tough business. Don't worry if you need to take a time out.

The virus
2023-03-11 00:33:16 +0000 UTCYou have immensely good reasons to be less productive right now. :) I prefer to think of Patreon like actual old-school patronage: helping someone live so they have more time to devote to their art when possible. The whole point is that someone shouldn't feel like they have to 24/7 grind.

2023-03-11 00:33:01 +0000 UTCI saw the Warning stickers back in stock on the store; so when I can, I will be getting some more of those. Teach the little one The Way!

The Friendly Deathclaw
2023-03-11 00:22:16 +0000 UTCHope that you get everything in order with your new human being :) Those of use who support you for appreciating your work surely knows you deserve some sort of leave to take care of the little one. Consider this your paternity leave, sort your things out. This simple update is more than enough :3
ShinobiSparrow
2023-03-11 00:21:59 +0000 UTCFluff don’t even get me started on how we are the only advanced nation in the world without proper parental leave as a law or we’ll both be here all day xD Your a parent now and that little one is gonna drain you a lot. Sleep whenever you can and try not to fret on art too much, you’ll find time when you can
