Heavy Changes to how my Patreon will work
Added 2021-10-12 20:46:52 +0000 UTCI have thought about this decision for quite a long time now but it's becoming clear with my current life situation that I can't keep producing content at the amount that I originally promised with my Patreon. It has probably been obvious for awhile now that trying to make a story and a CYOA story every month is putting a lot of stress on me and now further limiting working on personal stories. I also feel like I'm not making things that are as good as my usual quality because I'm having to rush to meet these deadlines I put on myself.
It's also been clear that my burnout is not going away soon and having these timed projects are not helping me to get over it in any way. Along with this I have been fighting a sense of stagnation as all my output has been on a small niche of fetishes that I had to stick to because it's what I needed to make money.
In the simplest of truths I have ran out of ideas to write about and I can barely get the drive to work on the ones I do have. It's why I've been doing art so much recently was because it became an escape from doing this. And having to run from one hobby because I'm frustrated with another is not a healthy state of mind and productivity. So I'm just eating the potential loss and making a change I should have done awhile ago when it was clear this was not going to keep working
This decision was also made by things in my personal life like an extremely hectic job schedule and going back to school for a certification. Both of these have tanked my free time to where I have to basically choose between this and doing something for fun. It's been incredibly taxing on me and despite hoping I would bounce back in time I am clearly not as my schoolwork becomes more of a challenge. So I feel it is best that I do this now before I upset anymore people by not delivering on things I promised to do.
Starting next month, I will not be doing monthly stories and LOD updates. I will be scaling back tier rewards heavily and making this into a tip jar. I will still post my work early here and I do not intend to take down the server so you guys can enjoy the stories. The story suggestions will become something that I do when I feel the drive to instead of something I feel forced to deliver.
New tiers will be $3,5, and 8 depending on how much you guys want to support me. All rewards will be the same so it will be purely your decision on how much you want to support me.
Thank you guys for sticking around as long as you have and know that I won't be upset if you decide to leave because of this decision. PLEASE SWITCH YOUR SUBSCRIPTION TO THE NEW TIER SO YOU ARE NOT CHARGED FOR MY OLD TIER PRICES

Adding to this that the only tier that will be changing in price is Prime Packers. You will need to change to the new tier or Patreon will still charge you guys $10 next month.
