Monthly News Letter #2 01/11/2016

Hello! One more month has passed by and... Well, oddly enough it hasn't been much different from last month in certain aspects that you've been able to see from our messages:

Elli's computer failed on her once again  just recently, so our struggle with technical difficulties did slow down Small Trolls for a while. But we got her computer to a working condition again (let's hope it won't break for a long time now) and we're just full steam pushing on new pages, thumbnails, and plans to finish our first chapter

 * .Also we have just started preparing for Christmas season, now that Halloween is over, and we've been preparing something for all our Patrons and we're trying to gather more to join in for the merry gingerbread holiday season!

 * So, it's been two months of Patreon, and honestly it's seemed longer than that! Karo for one finished a full-time job, and immediately started doing a part-time job to get some extra money. 

 * Buuut back to comic business!  Considering Small Trolls, we do know that the first chapter is going to exceed 40 pages! Which is a little bit longer than our initial goal, 30 pages. But it's nicer to be able to make a little bit longer introduction chapter. * We've also been starting to look at our first book prints and what we would like to include in them, and we have a pretty clear idea of out format. Ultimately we do want to make that whole book with every single story in them, but we're really fascinated in an idea to make multiple smaller books as a nicer collectible.

 * Year In Hereafter is still going on strong. Karo managed to build up some buffer to be able to work efficiently on Small Trolls for a few weeks, but unfortunately Tistow has suffered from Elli's technical problems, and she decided to halt the updates until she has more of a buffer. Small Trolls comes as our first priority right now.

 * We've been constantly brainstorming merchandise ideas too, not to mention the videocontent we want to start putting online, but we decided that we really need to focus heavily on making the comics of course.  Otherwise our attention just derails and sometimes it's hurting our working process.

 * So that's what has been happening lately! We've got few more Patrons since the last post too, so thank you~ Two patrons are on the verge of getting their first traditional reward next month, and we're able to send out one artpiece for October. x3 * 

Cheers everyone~
