Important update
Added 2018-05-08 22:00:37 +0000 UTCI am terribly sorry to inform you all that the delays due to my health are taking longer than expected. So I made a plan on what I'll do in the next weeks:
- all rewards that have been paid for will be drawn as soon as I physically can, and have priority over anything else. This includes three rewards from April (paid April 1st) and all the rewards for May (paid May 1st). If you're unsure about the status of your reward, please message me.
- all non-rewards drawings that were supposed to be posted in April and May will be finished and posted as soon as the rewards have all been fulfilled.
- no payments will be taken from your cards on June 1st, and likely July 1st as well. So, no need to delete your pledges in fear of paying for nothing! You can still hang around the page for the time being, don't worry about having to pay until I get to feel better again.
- Patron might be turned into a "per creation" page rather than a "per month" account when I am back to full health, since I often have health problems and I don't want this to happen again. With this method, I will make a single art pack about once a month, and you will be charged only when I actually post the art pack. Months without art will mean no payment required for you! I am open to suggestions and feedback about this decision.
Please let me know if you have any questions or if anything is unclear, my head is quite foggy so I am not sure if everything I said makes full sense.
Also... thank you to all of you who sent me get well messages. I absolutely appreciate how supportive you all are. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are amazing.

2018-05-09 18:23:21 +0000 UTCHaha, thank you. I think that whenever I set a high bar, I never want to do anything below it because I perpetually want to improve, so of course I panic whenever that happens. Thanks so much for the feedback (and the well wishes!), you pointed out exactly what my reason for potentially going on a "per creation" system is, and I'm glad you think it's something that could work :)

2018-05-09 16:00:36 +0000 UTCThank you so much. I appreciate everyone who is willing to toss me some bucks even during a hiatus but it's definitely something I don't want to take advantage of/abuse.

2018-05-09 15:57:17 +0000 UTCThis is so very nice and thoughtful of you, though I think you are a bit hard on yourself. Lots of creators have their periods where they have to slow down, and I am certain your patrons can and will understand that. Heck, you already post far more content than the average artist creator already, so you've set the bar quite high. I also think your art pack idea is pretty neat and fully support it if you believe this to work better for you. I know how stressful monthly campaigns can be, and with a "per creation" Patreon you won't always have to explain yourself to your patrons, which is a relief in itself I guess. Meanwhile, take it easy and get well ^^

2018-05-09 15:51:23 +0000 UTCI don't mind supporting you even if you don't post anything each month, though if you are going to take an extended break no charge would be nice. Artists still need income though, so I understand.
2018-05-09 04:19:40 +0000 UTCunless you were to withold the pack till the beginning of the next month or something after you're done with everything. i can't say at the end of the month because i'm often left with a completely empty bank account at the end of the month

2018-05-08 22:15:50 +0000 UTCoof, i personally have to disagree with the "per creation payment" as opposed to the per month, because how would we know how much the price would fluctuate, or when we'll actually get charged? i'd rather a steady monthly fee at the beginning of the month rather than a spontaneous fee where i have to worry if i have enough to pay for it at the time it's charged
