One Year Later...
Added 2015-12-05 17:11:10 +0000 UTCWow has it been a year already? One year ago, I was doing commissions to get by, wanting to focus on comics but finding it a struggle to make ends meet. I had two longform projects (Olivia and Londoners) that I wanted to do, but they just seemed like pipe dreams with my situation.
To say patreon and you guys had an impact on my life is an understatement. You changed my life. Because of this platform and your generosity and dedication, I've been able to make huge strides with my life. After 5 years, I'm finally back on health insurance. I'm out of debt. I'm looking to move to my dream location of the Seattle area sometime next year. I'm going to finally be able to upgrade my workstation, too. I've been able to produce comics and portfolios I've had on the backburner for years. I've finally begun my Olivia stories, and this month I plan on debuting my 10-years-in-the-planning webcomic, Londoners. None of this would've been possible with you, and you have my sincerest thanks!
What's planned for 2016? Well, the first chapter of the Olivia comic will be ending in February. I will start chapter 2 after a brief break, most likely. I will have Londoners on-going at that time, and I'll probably be doing sexy side comics and vignettes as side things, too. For instance, although I've completed my work for Wetblush's 'Horsin' Around' image set, I want to continue to expand on it as a patreon exclusive, doubling the images, likely with your votes choosing which pics get completed first.
This patreon has been successful in large part to your feedback. I'm always seeking to make sure you feel satisfied with the content. I've added lots of goodies since day one, and I plan to add more in the future, including backlog access and sketch commissions. I also want to do more workstreams. I'd like to get more people engaged, so if there's more interactive stuff you can think of, let me know!
Again, thank you all for your help in making this patreon successful. It's been life changing for me, and hopefully super enjoyable for you! Let's make the next year, and hopefully many years to come, even better!
P.S. I am working on an anniversary Thank You pic. I will probably have it finished by next week :3
