Hello my dear friends 🙋‍♂️

I need to open my heart to you today. Yesterday, after weeks of stress and endless attempts, I finally completed the process to be able to receive from Patreon again. It feels like a huge step forward, yet the relief is bittersweet.

Because now I face another painful reality: with the new system, I’ll be losing almost 30% of what I earn due to taxes. I’ve spent the last two days almost without sleep, desperately working with ChatGPT and the banks, trying to find a way to make this sustainable. Some steps worked out, others failed, and some are still pending… and the uncertainty is crushing me.

I am truly desperate, searching for solutions, because without one, it becomes nearly impossible to survive doing what I love. I feel so sorry for the delays and the lack of publications lately — please know it’s not because I don’t care, but because I’m fighting with everything I have to keep this going.

Your patience and support mean the world to me. Creating for you is what keeps me moving forward, even in moments like this when it feels so hard to breathe. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for standing with me through these dark days.

With love and gratitude,
