♥ 2020 Changes! - (please read!) ♥ (Patreon)

HELLOOOOO 2020! Thank you so much you guys for sticking with me in 2019, I know this Patreon has been a little uneven in the more recent months. Full transparency, I'm struggling to keep up with it. I feel like I don't make enough to satisfy my patrons with sketches, or with commission openings at least once a month, AND opening to the public regularly. SO- I've spent a few weeks thinking of how I want restructure my tiers in a way that makes sense. I really hope you guys find them agreeable and even more beneficial

**These changes will not happen until February!!** This is to give everyone a fair chance to read on how the tiers will change, and decide how you'd like to spend your pledge. With that being said, here's what I'm going to change.

#1 - Prices lowered on Rose and Gem tiers!

I've noticed that my prices overall don't allow me a ton of room for growth. On average, I see the "1, 3 5+" as the general format which can better help people who can't or don't want to pay $10 a month. For me, this is the tier that fluctuates the most and I don't want to rely too heavily on keeping that tier consistent. I will also streamline the tiers so it's very simple and clear on what you will be getting (basically cleaning up the text a bit)

#2 - No more first dibs 

This one was hard, but as result of the previous announcement, I am going to eliminate the first dibs policy. Again, going with the logic that it will help encourage growth for my channel if I level the playing field. I also felt like it was a little too "uppity" to basically say "people pay for the privilege of commissioning me" and I don't want to have that image. It's better for me mentally when I allow for a little more flexibility in my work schedule. >> This will NOT apply to getting previews of adopts, or knowing the schedule ahead of time for when I open for commissions!<<

#3 - ✨NEW tier will be added at $30 (limited slots)!

Pretty self explanatory, this tier gets everything plus a monochrome sketch every month! More details to come when it launches

#4 - ✨NEW reward! Access to private freebie streams!

Yes, I will do private freebie streams where I'll do sketches, funny doodles, chibis, your OCs, etc as well as just hang out with you guys! I will incorporate it into my new discord server to make it easy to access. I'm not sure which tiers will have this reward  just yet, though I am leaning towards $5 as a suitable replacement for first dibs getting the axe. 

#5 - ✨NEW discord server!

As previously mentioned in my last announcement, I'm working on getting a discord server together, mostly just getting a good team of mods who I trust. I'm not sure yet if I plan on making it open to the public or not, but I want it to be a fun space to have more personal interactions. Patrons will also get a special label  (or you can remain anonymous)  with access to Patron only channels  ^_^

And that's it! Again, thank you guys so much for making 2019 an overall success. I'm going to carry this new energy forward into my work for the new year!  ♥   ♥   ♥
