Ask ARA - Updates, and August Q+A (Patreon)

I haven't been nearly as active with Ask ARA as I used to be, and I think it needs a little reworking. A lot of it because some answers felt forced or dull in my responses, and I don't yet have all the 'reaction artwork' for both ARA and other characters that I would like to have made. I'll need to sit down and draw those at a later date, but for now, I do want to make a few changes:

First, I don't think the 'guaranteed 25$ tier answer' is necessary, and it often forced me to think of stuff that I'm just unsure about. Instead I'll just try my best to answer these, but I can't 100% guarantee it.

Same goes to all questions, I would like to just answer the questions here in Patreon, ON Patreon, instead of making a Tumblr post for each. So I'll have myself (or the characters) answer as such here, in direct responses, and for those questions that seem to earn artwork with them (usually random, if it hits me), will be then put up on the blog as well.

Ideally, I'd have some kind of "one website" to submit all Q's and then keep track of what ones have been asked, sort them into categories, etc. But I don't know anything about programming or websites, so I'll just have to sit on that for now.

I'm going to take a page from the Dreamkeepers Patreon and sort it into a Q+A type post each month, where you can pick a category to ask:

Artist Question: Questions for me, about art, plans, products, comics, etc. Anything to me directly, I'll try to discuss in this type of query.

World Question: Queries involving the world itself. How does FTL work, what kind of other animals are there, etc. These will be answered by either me, or a certain character depending on the category.

Character Question: As it says, ones directed at specific characters, that I think they'd answer. Once I have all of the 'response artwork' that I want to make, at least for the main characters, I'd love to take the best questions from each month, put them into a small collective image with some of response art, and upload that to galleries, the blog, etc.

That's all for now, sorry if it's felt lagging a little bit, I'm trying! It's been one thing that's bugged me about being busy with the comic and other things as of late, trying my best to pick up the pace and be a little more organized with my work schedule... I really appreciate your patience and support!

Feel free to ask questions for the month of August below!
