Announcement - Hiatus (PLEASE READ) (Patreon)

Hi Guys!

I just wanted to thank you all and express how grateful I am for the support you've given me for my being on Patreon for roughly a year and 2 months. It's been an enjoyable time being here with you, and your selfless support of my craft has allowed me to really grow as an artist.

At the same time, with the juggling of the pandemic, my dayjob, my health and my art -- unfortunately, my mental health has taken quite a bad hit. I haven't been sleeping well in the last few weeks, I've lost my appetite considerably, I've been swinging wildly between moods and I've resorted back to my old vices of smoking and drinking. I know I'm being unhealthy, and I realized it's time to give myself a break. A part of me doesn't want to, knowing that many of you have been with me right from the start and I know how hard it is to find support like that, these days, but I also realize that if I don't take care and be a little kind on myself, I don't know how far off things will be.

With that above, I'm announcing a hiatus not on just Patreon but on art in general. I don't know when I'll be back, if it'll be next month or months after - and I do not want any of you to be pledging your hard-earned money to a dead account.

Which is why, on the 25th of March 2021, I will be unlaunching my Patreon account. This means you will no longer be charged on April 1 and the months after should your account still be pledging/supporting me here. Should I return to this, I will then relaunch my account - of which you will receive a notification and thus can determine if you still wish to continue or not.

I will still be posting content until March 25 2021 as part of the rewards package you have all pledged to, and thus I urge you - should you wish - to download and save the content I've posted here before March 25 and the unlaunching.

Until then, let's make the best of our time here. Again, I can't express how grateful I am to have had this support on my art - I've never really imagined myself growing as an artist, as it was a hobby and a dream I've shelved time and time again. 

Thank you for letting me have the opportunity to realize that dream, no matter how short it was.
