Hey Fam,
I can’t believe it’s already September! Time really seems to be escaping me lately. With the start of college this week, things will begin moving a little slower around here, but don’t worry—I’ll still be sharing lovely updates, NSFW art, and behind-the-scenes content from my comics with you all.
On a personal note, I’ve been wanting a side shave again for a while now. I had one back in 2021 and absolutely loved it, so I decided to go for it again. My partner was kind enough to shave it for me—Wheeee!

This month, I’m diving into some interesting reads. For school, I’m going through Planning Character Animation in 3-D and 2-D, and for myself, I’m enjoying Black Sci-Fi Short Stories. What are you all reading this month? I’d love to hear any recommendations you have!

In other news, next week I’ll be posting the last pages from Bring Me Love. Endings always leave me feeling a bit melancholic and sad, but considering this comic started as a joke and has grown into something much bigger, I’m really satisfied with what I’ve achieved. The support I’ve gained from you and so many others has been incredible.
As I wrap up this project after three years, I’m looking forward to my next big comic venture. However, I’m taking some time to really think about where I want to invest my time. Since I’ll be swamped with school for another year, I might use this year to focus on preproduction before sharing any pages publicly outside of Patreon.
September is a bit of a transition month for me, with new schedules and getting back into the swing of things, so I hope you can be patient with me.
Lastly, I’m excited to announce the winner of this month’s bi-monthly chibi portrait: Jessica MacKillop! I’ll be reaching out to you personally in case you miss this newsletter.
Thanks for your continued support—I appreciate each and every one of you!
With love and creativity,
Ariann
