Ricepirate Update : August - October (Patreon)

For those of you who've followed my journey from Minnesota to Philly, you know that the last couple years (which happen to be the same years I started this Patreon) have been absolutely batty: divorce, cross country moving, starting a business, ending a business, and oh so much more.

Well, 2016 just doesn't stop droppin the heat (apparently for most of the world lol). 

Here's the current state of our adventure...

___________________________________________________________________

PHL : August 9-10
Twitch-Audience animation collab streaming for 2 days to make a cartoon for LORE's 5th anniversary.

___________________________________________________________________

PHL to LA : August 11-13
Was at Maker Studios shooting "LORE live", also for their 5th anniversary. 

___________________________________________________________________

LA to SEA : August 13-Now (August 18)
Surprise! My grandma's health took a nose-dive. She's 89 and there's no cure for old, and some of you have maybe seen tweets or pics related to her decaying state of health over the last year, so while it wasn't a surprise, it wasn't expected. Based on estimates and her obvious condition, she could pass tonight, tomorrow, honestly every night I've been here the whole family has pretty much considered it her last night. SHE A FIGHTER TO DA VERY END!

___________________________________________________________________

SEA : August 18-September 5(6?)
Initially, I was gonna head back to Philly after LA, catch up on work/streams and fly to Seattle for PAX. Obviously, this situation (including the inevitable funeral) has me locked down in Seattle til (and through PAX).

What does that mean? THANK MY GOSH DANG LUCKY STAR Nikki (NikkiNacks) is returning to Seattle from her stay with Zach (at our house in Philly). Mercifully, she's bringing some of my work station, so I can continue streams, animation, art, and not getting boned in the bung by hovering self-inflicted deadlines.

In short, starting tomorrow (barring my grandmother's death), I'll be back to work and streaming (doing the best with what we got, equipment-wise).

If yer at PAX, hit me up here or on twitter, I owe you all drinks.

___________________________________________________________________

SEA to LA : September 6-20(?)
Apartment/house hunting for a place in Burbank. Time to take the voice career more seriously, and that's the place to be.

___________________________________________________________________

LA to SD : September 20(?)-October 3
After finding a place, and find a place I must. I'll head down to San Diego, staying with Megan until TwitchCon. Again, if yer going to the event, smack my face : drinks on me.

___________________________________________________________________

SD to PHL : October 3-October 30(?)
Once I return to Philly, I'll cook up a couple more solid weeks of work and streams, then we pack up the place, load up the trucks, and drive across the country (AGAIN lol). 

___________________________________________________________________

PHL to LA (Burbank) : October 30(?)- ???
The trip takes about 4 days, especially with 2 vehicles and a house of shit to move. 

___________________________________________________________________

LA : ?? -???
After the move, that's it. Time to create a schedule and dig in. I plan to do a lot less cons (unless flown out), I plan to do a lot more cartoons, videos, tuts, audio stuff, all the shit I've been wanting and promising to do since I started. All that, and hitting the pavement in the voice over audition arena.

___________________________________________________________________

That's it for now. Obviously this is the plan, but plans are made to be flipped the fuck over by the unexpected spasms of life.

We'll be in closer touch <3
