Important Notice (Patreon)
Content
Hey all
So, I don’t think Patreon says anything to you all about this, but I’ve paused billing at the moment, but I also don’t plan to resume billing any time soon. Please read until the end, because while I may be stopping this, I’m not stopping in general.
The short and sweet is that I think it may be time for me to move on from this part of my life. I’ve had fun making these videos and hosting the Patreon for all of you, and I’ve endlessly appreciated your support. You all have quite literally made this possible. The new Starry model wouldn’t exist without your support, same goes for Stelle and basically all the assets you see in my renders.
Why are you stopping your Patreon?
In a few words, it isn’t healthy for me anymore, mentally at least. It isn’t about the likes or statistics on my posts, but more about how under the surface I’ve felt like I’m in a constant race against myself and the people around me. I feel like if I’m not doing bigger and better things that it isn’t going to do well. There’s also the aspect of how mentally this has slowly taken control of my life without me realizing it. As soon as I’d go a week or so without taking new photos or having a new video idea, I’d start to stress out. I’d become hesitant to check my page here because I’d know I’d see cancellations- And that’s the right move on your guy’s part. It’s your money and you have the right to do that!- but ultimately I’d use that as a weapon against myself. It would go from “oh man I need to make a video” to “I haven’t made a video in too long, shit.” To “I can’t do anything else until I make a video.” And, unfortunately, that would just turn into me forcing myself to make something that I’m not really proud of. Sure, it’s nsfw material, it’s hard to be “proud” of it, but it’s still an art in a way you know?
But regardless, I’m rambling.
I’ve been thinking about this for a while now, and the recent break I’ve had in videos and such has given me a good opportunity to finally act on my thoughts.
I do truly appreciate all your support.
HOWEVER
While the patreon era of Starry may be over, I am not done in general.
Fansly streaming is something I’ve been meaning to start doing, and still plan to do. I’ll basically be moving over there instead— just without the expectation of weekly/bi-weekly videos. Frankly I much more enjoy how I can set up things to be on an item-by-item basis instead of the pressure of fulfilling a schedule, plus streaming as Starry has been insanely fun on the streams I’ve guest starred on!
EDIT: link for that: https://fansly.com/StarryGTS/posts
probably would’ve been a good idea
So, while this is over, I hope to see you on the other side of the road. This page will stay around as an archive, but I’m going to be shutting down any paid aspect about it.
Thank you all again. There’s really no way for me to express just how much this has meant to me, and how much your support has given to me.
