September apology
Added 2018-09-17 18:59:47 +0000 UTCHi guys,
I know I've been out of touch since last month and wanted to apologize.
For some reason, since we moved to the new place, I felt somewhat drained and couldn't find the energy and inspiration to create new works.
I tried to work on some stuff but it just didn't "happen". I guess that what they mean by "writer's block".
Anyway, I'm starting to get back to business and will have some posts for you real soon. Having said that, if by the end of the month you'll think you didn't get your pledge's worth I will totally understand if you'd ask for a refund.
Thank you for your amazing support. Don't think it's being taken for granted.

Being communicative about when the schedule is going to hit a snag is really the key thing I look for when paying a monthly amount. Patreon is for funding the creative process, and setbacks are a part of that. As long as things don't stall out with no new for months at a time, I think most of us are going to be fine with things. That said, do you know what level of output you expect of yourself each month? Being aware of "oh, he's shooting for X posts with content, but instead managed Y this month" would help contextualize the difference between a 'slow' and 'productive' month.

2018-09-19 09:48:03 +0000 UTCI couldn't have said it better myself - creativity is not some button you can press to switch on. I really appreciate your support :)

2018-09-19 09:44:15 +0000 UTCDo not be so hard on yourself. This is advise I also need to take and understand, because I am also going through challenging times at my end of the room at the moment. Your work makes me happy and I will patiently wait. I imagine that I am not the only one. Take extra special care of yourself. You are what is important.
2018-09-18 23:54:53 +0000 UTCThat was me last month, only with me, is was coping with the loss of my mother with her birthday being August; she passed away March this year. At least you have steady patrons who support you even if you hit a slump, hon ;-)
2018-09-17 21:02:22 +0000 UTCHey buddy, don’t worry about it! We all go through some kind of creative funk every now and then... I know I do ( sorry Club Exit ch 4) lol. Besides, you’ve had some big changes in you life recently with moving and all these things can take your mind other places than where you want it to go. I support you no matter what, and I’m excited for you to get back on track. Anything i can do to help you get those creative juices flowing just let me know!
2018-09-17 19:49:17 +0000 UTCNo problem! It's a downside with Patreon as a support for creative work - creativity isn't necessarily something that you can just churn out to a timetable! Your work is great and I'm happy to support it. I look forward to whatever's next, whenever that may be. Go with your own timescale!
