Sneak Peeks, Plans & Updates for the Week of March 21 (Patreon)

Hi, patrons! Sneak peek time! And with them, the results of our last poll. This week's audio will be Yandere Angel and Demon Fight to Become Your Girlfriend! Yay! Here's the thumbnail I whipped up for it!

Recording for this one will be very last minute, as scheduling has been a bit of an  issue this past week. If all works out, it'll be a collab with Juniper Justice ASMR. If not, it'll just be me yelling at myself in two very silly voices! Fun times. Either way, the early access audio should be up here by tommorow!

Speaking of collabs, I'll also be appearing in a dual Lamia audio with Juniper on her channel this week. Theoretically. Fingers crossed! I'll post that link when it's up!

Other things I've got on my plate:

Planning for my next event! April is coming up fast, but that means May is right around the corner, and so is the MAY MYSTERY EVENT which will not remain a mystery for long! I'll be revealing that to you all at the start of April. This will be the first time I involve my audience in the planning process in any capacity and I'm really excited about that. 😁 I may spend all month scrabbling around like a panicked possum caught in a flashlight beam, as that's what my planning process generally looks like, but it should be entertaining at least!

Remastering an older audio! I promised a remastered library as one of my Patreon perks and I'm getting ready to deliver! Honestly it's a little scary to be going back to my oldest work to try and spiff it up, but I sort of know what I'm doing now so...maybe it won't be so bad! (She says, trembling in low level terror.) My biggest concern is that the files you can currently hear on youtube won't be able to be remastered properly, and I'll have to edit the raw audio (the original recordings that have no cuts!) from scratch. It's doable, but it'll take a lot more time and effort if that's the case. Either way, I hope to have the first remaster done by the end of March!

As I work my way through my back catalog, a handful of remasters will be released as freebies since the original script writers would prefer they don't go behind a paywall. (A couple other writers apparently dropped off the face of the internet, so those audios will also be freebies since I can't secure their permission to make them exclusives!) Basically, while the bulk of the remaster library will be higher tier patron exclusives, everyone will get to hear at least some of them!
