...I'm going to stick to a standard of 3 pieces of content per week, spread over 5 days of work. 

I fully understand if that changes the equation for any of you subscribing - I know that last year, when I started doing this full time, I was WAY too ambitious and tried for one upload a day, 6 days a week! Over the last year and a half of this, I've started favoring quality over quantity. By doing three pieces per week, the average polish on each image is MUCH higher than last year, and it also opens up the possibility of at least one multi-image sequence per week, whether it's a poll winner or a commission. But still, it is technically a drop in quantity, so if you no longer think the subscription is worth it at 3 uploads a week, I fully understand!

Overall, though, I think it's the best thing both for the quality of each commission/poll winner I work on, as well as for my mental state. I understand that I'm extremely fortunate to be doing this for a living, but work is still work, and 8-10 hour work days 6 days a week, especially involving the repetition of certain parts of the artwork process, was leaving me very frequently at the brink of burnout. 

That said, while a 5 day work week with three uploads will be the new standard, I'll still periodically do a 6 day week with the goal of 4 uploads during those occasional weeks. It'll just be a kind of random thing based on my energy level and the complexity of commission work that week. 

Let me know if you have any questions or comments below!
