October reward delay & November billing cycle paused
Added 2019-10-22 06:51:31 +0000 UTCHello everyone, it has been a while again. I have been struggling for the progress to share works or recent activity because, for years, nothing has been really going smoothly and my energy is pretty much dried. I am thinking, probably for now, it is too much weight to run a Patreon with monthly rewards schedule.
各位午安，不好意思有個壞消息，幾週過去，我作畫問題絲毫沒有得到改善，目前感到能量已經耗盡，暫時無法規律性地經營這個專頁。
And it's my fault again, that the October pledges are already deducted from my Patreon account automatically on Oct 5th, which makes the refunding impossible. So everyone who pledges to October patronage will be guaranteed to receive rewards, but it will be delayed, and possibly finished in November. If you decide to cancel your pledge in the next month, the reward will still be sent to your PM box once it is finished. Also, the billing cycle will remain paused until a decent reward is being made.
本想退還本月贊助款給各位，結果系統顯示本專頁收入額因為已經自動打進Paypal，所以無法提供退款orz不好意思搞出這種想退也退不了的烏龍...！所以十月的會員們仍然會收到獎勵，只不過獎勵無法在本月內完成(土下座)，如果各位決定取消訂閱，仍然能透過私訊功能收到本月獎勵。之後直到確定有獎勵完成之前、結帳週期也都將保持暫停。
Anyway, I will still share random posts here even without pledges. Just want to make my goals more lightweight and less frustrating, and more importantly, no guarantee is needed if I simply take it as a hobby rather than a job. I will resume the rewards routine once my lost confidence coming back. Thank you so much if you still choose to stay.
即便本專頁暫時停止收費，我還是會不定期上來發表一些隨機的創作或感想。現下暫時想緩下來做一些比較不耗腦的東西，消除壓力來源，才有可能再回來好好經營這個專頁。抱歉讓各位一再久候，也感謝大家的支持與耐心。

Thanks! I will! 🥰
2019-10-30 15:29:50 +0000 UTCWow you're too kind 😳 I wonder if I'm qualified to be a perfectionist because I'm stuck in probably a very basic step, which is uh, just finish the work. I'm so puzzled why I simply am not able to now, while it was never a problem a decade ago. I'm sorry if you're also going through those struggles (but also a relief that I'm not alone, ahem). Maybe it is unavoidable during the journey of creating artwork and a sign before jumping to the next stage. I wish to support more artists I love around the world like all of you are doing when my situation is better. Getting support and communicate with you all is really a wonderful experience despite the difficulties of running the reward system. 😘
2019-10-30 15:28:44 +0000 UTCThank you 😭 I'm too lucky to have all the support here.
2019-10-30 15:07:49 +0000 UTCHaha it ends that I still repeating doing practices every day. But at least I can worry less now and take my time.
2019-10-30 14:35:42 +0000 UTCI almost feel like a mad scientist just repeating experiments every day. 😅 When I was little it was fun, but now it is energy-consuming. Thanks for your kind comment! I'll do my best to find the passion again.
2019-10-30 14:33:23 +0000 UTCThank you so much 😭 I regret to go for the billing per month rather than per post. But to think on the bright side, it also pushes me to always focus on the problems that need to be solved first and make me a step closer to what I plan to be month by month.
2019-10-30 14:17:29 +0000 UTC嗚嗚感謝！這幾天還是天天畫圖，不過不再一自己一定要在月底完成作品，總之走一步算一步orz
2019-10-30 14:17:22 +0000 UTCAww, take care of yourself! 3:
2019-10-25 15:15:44 +0000 UTCDon't worry about it! I am sure lots of your patrons (including me) are here so they can show their support regardless of you delivering the monthly rewards! To be honest, I love that i can interact with you and chat via comments because you're such a fun person and I enjoy your posts a lot they are really interesting to read! Take really good care of your mental health and regain the energy that you need. Being a perfectionist is draining for both body and soul and it sure as hell gives the performance anxiety big time. I can relate a lot to what you're writing and the struggle you're going through. Be kind to yourself, we cal all tell how hard you're working and how much effort and heart you pour into these pieces- it's a well deserved rest!

2019-10-24 10:49:31 +0000 UTCDon't worry! People who truly love your work will stand by you always. Please take good care of yourself and focus on your recovering your confidence.
2019-10-23 05:57:41 +0000 UTCDon't work yourself too hard! Give yourself the time that you need and do what you feel is best for you! ;_;
2019-10-22 18:37:50 +0000 UTCPlease try not to beat yourself up too much. Life happens, stress happens, and sometimes you need to take a break for yourself to find your passion again. Like I said to someone else, if your heart and brain aren't in it, then it's not art, it's just work. You do what you need to for yourself, okay? You're still one of my favourite artists and I'm not going anywhere. <3
