February pause

Hi my deers <3 (I will now call you that, fitting to how I will redesign my Patreon's layout for this month (very deery haha). 

I wanted to announce that I will pause my campaign for February. This means, I will now hit the "pause" button, which means you won't be billed for February rewards in the first days of the March billing process. I'm doing this to stay transparent and fair, and so I can get some things done or get needed rest without feeling too guilty to still take your money.

----------------------------

Reasons are the following:

• February is the shortest month and I think I won't get a lot Patreon stuff done when I look at my long to-do list. I'm already pretty overworked right now and need to sort things out before everything crashes together;;;

• I wanna do a new timetable for Patreon, where I upload on specific times of the month and you finally get to know when you can expect for example the wallpapers, nsfw stuff or new comic pages. I wanna do a scheduling, where I promise a specific amount of pages for each of my comic series (CRUSH3D!!, Java Bonds and the bonus comic CURSED!!) so you know how much you can get and I can at some point say "I did enough for this month" because if I keep working with "open ends" I will just burn myself out too much and always have a bad conscience that it wasn't enough, no matter how much I did. I also want to guarantee that you are always a step ahead of the public updates of my webcomics but I have to prepare this, so I won't totally fail the first month where I promise this new plan. We will start in March with that and I hope to begin a successful and productive webcomic year :D

• I'm relaunching CRUSH3D!! this month and need to work on the "website" and to get the thing going, do promo art, etc~

• I am still overwhelmed with the address labelings of our postal system and just never found the calm moment to work on the goodie mails. Everything is half packed and I have to really put everything else on a hold to deal with that, so you get your mails. I'm very sorry, but I just need to get better at fulfilling organizing tasks, they are hell to me.

• I also have to concentrate a bit to get a bunch of pages for Java Bonds done because the print deadline comes closer and I need to finish the book for the Dokomi or else ... I will have no convention earnings again this year whatsoever;;;

• After a year you always notice what things work out and which don't. So I found myself wanting to reorganize some Patreon tiers (I want to simplify the money system for the new year, change some icons/designs, repair broken links etc. It is always weird to bill you, while going through tier changes, so I will post a second update, when I changed everythin and explain the changes, so people can delete or change pledges again, if they feel the need, without being billed for the wrong thing!)

I hope you understand this. I'm very sorry and very thankful if you wanna stay around <3 I'll be back in March >__<~ with hopefully fresh comic pages and more organization!

Thank you and now have a nice month <3 STAY WELL!
