So today I check my Patreon Pledge manager thingie, and it has this new thing on there now.
So now it actually tells me how much I get for the next few weeks in advance. This helps a lot. According to this, the first two weeks of may will cover the extra Kaerwyn's, the last two weeks won't. But all of them should cover BT's goal.
Crap, now I have to make more BT's.
I wonder if it'll show that on my main page? Oh well, I'm still probably going to switch to monthly donations starting in J...

Since I actually have a buffer of comics, this means that I can show you guys the comics before anyone else gets to see it! The comic won't update until 8pm EDT tonight. So you guys get to see it a few hours early.

Okay, despite my gripe in the previous post, I am going to honor this one no matter what the turnout is. If only because I really really like making the Kaerwyn comic. I'll start posting 4 next week.

At the start of the month, Patreon charges all the pledgers for their pledges and sends it to my account. The problem is that it displays the $112 per week on my account's page, however the money is not actually going through. I know people can place monthly limits on how much I can charge, which is fine. I just wish Patreon was more open about it.
That said, after the charges have gone through (I'm not sure if it's finished processing or what), but I only got $55 per week for April. This is ...

I thought I'd give you guys a sneak peek at Issue 6's cover. It has not been posted publicly anywhere yet, so you guys are the first to see it.

The end of the issue! I've managed to keep this up for a year, woo hoo!

I somehow missed out on two BT's. I'm not sure how it happened, I thought it was on track but the weeks caught up to me. Kaerwyn's Issue 5 will end this week, so instead of doing the extra two Kaerwyn's, I'll be doing the BT's to get caught back on track. I'm working on the next page right now. I usually take a week off between comic issues to work on the script and the cover. In Kaerwyn's place, I'll be posting Q&A's. Feel free to send those questions in if you'd like! It'll be in the...

So, when I sketch out the comics, I often write in bloopers that only the Kaerwyn writing staff gets to see. I thought it would be fun to actually post the bloopers for you guys as an added Patreon bonus!
If I did this right, only Patreon donators should be able to see it.

I really wouldn't mind some patron feedback on this. For the past few weeks, I've had a really difficult time trying to keep up with doing 4 Kaerwyns, a Kaerwyn Q&A, and a BT. (This is basically 6 comic pages a week). I don't really have a problem with doing the 6 pages per week, but it gets in the way of my other real paid work and this is becoming an issue unfortunately). I am thinking about removing the current 4-day Kaerwyn milestone starting in April. I may replace it with a higher s...

BT will be coming up a little later this week. It's getting to be difficult trying to do it after the livestream sessions.

Since I've started doing the Adoptable Character thing, I've decided that my Patreon donators will get a discount on 1 adoptable per week that matches their Patreon pledge! For some, that could be one free adoptable per week!

For those of you that have pledged $5 or more, you get to describe NPC's for Kaerwyn's comic! We've got some scenes coming up within the next couple of weeks that will require I make some background characters, so send me those descriptions.

I've added a $5/week reward tier, and anyone donating over that is allowed to submit "background characters" (no more than once a week please!) to be displayed in the Kaerwyn comic when background characters are needed (Such as town scenes). Feel free to PM me here, DA, FA or email with a description. Please note the limitations however. If there's a problem with your submission, I'll let you know so we can work something out.

Same Schedule as last week for keeping up with the goals! One Q&A page and four Kaerwyn comics!

I've added a new, more realistic goal for BT fans. If the pledges hit the $75/week mark, I'll guarantee that BT will get at least one page a week. I hope to get it started soon regardless of the donations, but this would definitely make things easier for me.

Since you guys have met two goals this week, I'll be starting the week off with the Q&A, and then Wed-Sat will get pages!

We've reached the $20 goal everyone! If you have a question you want to ask a Kaerwyn comic character, please email me at jakkal at gmail dot com with your question! Or you can PM it here. I think. Only those that have donated (either via Patreon or paypal) can submit questions! The best ones will be answered weekly on Kaerwyn's comic.
Please note that any character shown in the current version of the comic is eligible except for F-00-Bar. The reason is that his writer has passed away and...

I know $18/week doesn't sound like much but that really does help me out, and I really appreciate you guys for donating! This is enough to pay for the webhost for the comics as well as the servers/webhost for Kaerwyn's RP!
So thanks very much, even this much has helped out a lot!
