I'm sorry/forced to take a break
Added 2022-03-19 09:41:18 +0000 UTCSome of you already knew I was struggling a bit getting content out the door due to my private life being a mess right now. It started with my father's death last year and ever since then its been hard to get back into my usual rhythm. There are many factors playing a part and all of them just add to the pile of pressure I'm experiencing.
I was already late delivering last image/story because my family keeps coming around every week to "work" on the house I'm currently living in. It needs A LOT of fixing and cleaning before its ready for sale. Other than that, I still haven't found a place to live for myself which again adds to the pile (housing market in my country is crap at the moment).
So about 10 days ago my body just decided to call it quits. Severe migraine, signs of burnout and in the past few days a severe ear infection was added forcing me to do absolutely nothing even though I "feel" as if there is still so much that has to be done (including artwork/stories).
With this ear infection added to the pile I finally realized its best to give up for now and take a break/rest. I'm sorry but under these conditions its becoming very hard to output anything or get even a little bit done.
So just to be clear: THE 503 FOLDERS WILL THEREFORE STAY EMPTY AND I WILL PROBABLY DELETE THEM AT SOME POINT.
Also: I CANNOT PAUSE PLEDGES ON THIS WEBSITE SO YOU WILL HAVE TO CANCEL/PAUSE YOUR SUBSCRIBTION IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GET CHARGED.
I'm sorry peeps. I just don't see any other way to get around this. I thought about giving gumroad packs as a compensation but some of you have everything already so... Not the best idea.
I'd be glad if you stick around but only if you can afford it. I can also understand if you canceled your subscribtion and I'm not offended by it in any way. After all, some people are here specifically for the images and stories that I don't publish anywhere else.
Thank you for your time and understanding <3 I'm hoping to continue work soon but for now I really need a rest. -Lerra
