I almost forgot I set up the poll last night, namely this one: https://www.patreon.com/posts/question-for-ya-125328114

So yeah, look forward to the croc in May.  Maybe; correct as of time of posting (11th April 2025).  Thank you so much to everyone who participated.  Textless version attached.

Just a Reminder…

In relation to this: https://news.patreon.com/articles/understanding-apple-requirements-for-patreon 

I've een hearing a bit lately about those who’ve been affected by the add-on, both as Patrons and Content Creators…  so yeah, as I said way back way the news first broke last August: 2025-04-10 22:12:14 +0000 UTC View Post

Correct as of 6 April 2025...

 ... there will not be charges enacted in May 2025, because I won't be producing work this month of April 2025.

If you're on the newer anniversary billing thingy they've made everyone go on since November 2024, where you're charged on the date you initially joined, don't panic. For example, if you joined 10th March and you see a charge on 10th April, that's norm...

... you ought to know that April will be a hiatus month. This goes out to anyone arriving here in April. I'll be back after the Easter break, hopefully May. Sorry.

Take care and thank you for your interest.

Announcement Ahead of April...

Granted, I'm not sure what's going to happen with how things will work with the annivesary-style billing thing they've made everyone go onto since last November, amongst other things.... we'll see how things fare.

At any rate, once the payment cycle goes through, I'll pause charges on this account and will let you all know accordingly.

I’m very sorry; I was only just able to get Infurlation Redux done on time.  But I am too burnt out on comics to do anything else.  Don’t get me wrong, I love writing and drawing them.  However, it takes a lot of effort, especially as I’m now at a tricky stage with all three and I’m more...

Question For Ya...

 

That's it, that's the question.

This will be for when I return here in May, so I know what I'm doing to provide for you Patrons in terms of Vinnups and stuff.

One vote per Patron, so think carefully.

Vote closes... hmm, let's go with 8am, 10th April.  Two weeks ought to be enough, right? I'll illustrate the results and if applicable, I'll do anoth...

In other words, me forewarning you that I'll be absent from here come April, therefore no new art or updated content.  

As I went on about waaay back in 2020, I usually run out of steam if I do more than two consecutive months' worth of work on here. So I opt to take a month off to recharge, ala so:

In relation to the archive keys, which, as of lunchtime, Wednesday 5th March 2025, have been dispensed. Just a reminder that I'm going to take a break in April. So there won't be a new poll this month. But I'll post a reminder of what's coming. And, that's it for the moment. Please enjoy the past and look forward to the new works coming before April arrives.

Stay safe, stay well and thank you so much for your support.

Thank you so much for your support, and moreover, helping me pay for my new glasses, which I'm collecting today.

Oh, Hi March...
