Hey Patreon kiddos!
Thank you for all your support and patience throughout all this.
The next mammoth-sized, funded video you'll see here will be a mailbag video answering all your most excellent questions and addressing all my horrible stuff-ups related to everyone's favourite blue land-urchin and the video which contains them.
But surprise, surprise! -That video wasn't the original cut!
So basically what happened was that I spent a few too many years mulling over what the project should be. Eventually I imagined an epic documentary featuring the rich, storeyed history of Sonic and Sega at large, all set to music and my usual razzle-dazzle.
Before long -and with about half the script finished- I felt that if I didn't start it then, it would never happen! So, in order to solidify my resolve, I began filming something with no concrete end in sight.
Fighting numerous outside pressures (as happens sometimes) I could barely maintain the energy to perform for camera, even at my glacial pace, and so as the months eked by with so little to show for the time of my life spent sat at the computer and no knowable finish date, I just stopped! I couldn't bare to face anyone about it, even though months earlier I had even instigated a special "Procrastination Challenge" to egg myself -and others- on.
Then, sometime mid 2018, a friend asked me to be in a charity live-stream, wherein a bunch of folks made me feel so welcome, it reignited something within and gave me the oomph to totally re-write the video from the ground up, incorporating only a few elements from the original. The rest is, as they say, history!
Mailbag video when? -I like to think two months, absolute tops.
Huge thanks again and much love.
