October Schedule and Monthly News

Monthly News

The last quarter of the year

For now, it seems like everything went well in September, despite it being a complicated month for me (I went to help out at three gigs for my best friend, who has a band that plays anime openings/endings/music, and ended up hurting my foot, plus it was also my birthday, a day I took the opportunity to cosplay my OC Ina, in case anyone wants to dig into my Instagram, which appears on my Linktree somewhere :v I'm not posting it here because it would be too off-topic).

Financially, in terms of commissions, things seem to be going well for now in terms of paying all the bills (although I still have to see how the devaluation of the dollar affects me, since Patreon earnings are converted from USD to my country's currency, which is not very flattering right now after the Fed's moves). but let's hope things go better in the coming months, while I remain within a margin of austerity. For now, I'll publish the two pending works on Pixiv/DA/etc. and see how the fundraising goes to determine whether it's better to withdraw on Friday or Monday.

I also plan to publish one or two pages of comic content per month (which will be done with our assistant artist or someone else) that will be used for the third compilation of my expanded literary universe, which I will publish in December. Although I won't put this month's content on the calendar yet, as it hasn't been negotiated and finalized, I will publish it in the last week of the month if everything goes well. In addition, starting in November, some of the content written for the $10 tier (the Royal Library) may be related to my original content and that third compilation.

Finally, the next fanfic will be written and drawn from October 20 to 24, so its elements will be put to a vote next week with more time. This will be the last fanfic voted on this year, since the content voted on in October is original content, and as usual, it will absorb the fanfic content that was supposed to be done in December to make 13 pages original comic which will be published for free (at least the first 10 pages and the last 3 pages serving as a paid-wall bonus) in December as a Christmas gift for our audience.

This week, I will devote myself to editing everything from this month that is pending so that I can schedule and publish it, in addition to the writing pending from the previous two weeks. (A notification of modification of those posts will be sent when I upload the novels from those posts within the same post).

Discord introduction for new members
(permanently pinned in each schedule)

-I remind you that access to the Discord server is manual (through the link I leave in the posts), in my opinion it is better and safer that way, and also consider that granting ranks according to patreon / fanbox is also manual (meaning that every time someone enters my Discord server I will ask them what their patreon / fanbox nickname is, so that you won't be surprised if someone with my nickname (irinaizumi) asks you for that information in your personal discord, and at the beginning of each month I'll check using an excel spreadsheet to verify if each member of the Discord server is still subscribed to Patreon / fanbox or not to keep or lose the rank (until renew their subscription again). You can be in my Discord server without being subscribed to Patreon and be able to access the community channels, but without having access to the rank that allows you to see Patreon content on Discord.

-I also remind you that about any old and recent content that for some reason has been lost or misplaced over time, or that is not fully well documented in Patreon / fanbox throughout these 5 years due to the change regarding the logistics of uploading content over time, you can ask me privately on Discord and I'll share them with you (since I've saved everything we've done to date). Remember, I'm open to hearing tips and recommendations if it help improve our logistics and the community (on our Discord server in the #suggestions channel).

Regards
Ina
