Change in Content schedule vote
🕑 Added 2022-01-06 23:33:51 +0000 UTCHello everyone, I hope you've been enjoying my content as much as it seems you all have! I've been considering this a lot recently especially after looking around in the space that I'm in and comparing my platform on all aspects. I think it's best for my work and for me if I reduce the amount of work I create per week/month, I realized though how my polls were working that the second I finish a work going onto another work s not exactly healthy and leaves no room for me to do anything else with my time (alternate free works or explorations). So I have this poll for how the work should be continuing on. I know it sucks to see that I'm reducing the content I'm releasing, my nature as a worker is that of a workaholic, when I don't have anymore work to do I just begin working again, however I know at this point it's not the most healthy and I should take at least one day off per week. I NEVER want to take a month or week off, I just want to have A somewhat flexible amount of time. Commissions will be added on top of whatever is chosen, rather than replacing planned content like it is currently.
I post a lot more WIPs in the discord so if you want regular updates you should check there, I'm also available to talk there and in the channel for contacting me!
No defined schedule, make as much work as viable: I suggest joining the discord, with this I'd be making work as much as I can or see fit, early access would still exist but I wouldn't need to hit the deadline of monday uploads, so if I got sick or needed to take care of personal responsibilities I don't need to rush the work, I'm pretty sure most patreons do this, if they don't their scheduled work is one piece a month or a little more than that. This one seems the most friendly, everyone would know when I'm posting and polls would be up regularly. I don't want to miss a week of uploading some sort of content. Hard schedules are great for people joining my patreon as they know what to expect, but at this point there is also enough content on this patreon to justify the $5 entry fee. The original purpose of the amount of content I was making was to give a reason for people to join the discord in the first place, since it did start with nothing, and I quickly wanted to get it up and running. Now that it is and everyone knows that I use my time to work I think this is a fine option to choose, and I may default to it if any of the other options cause issues, I would of course let everyone know 2 weeks in advance at least.
Comics on a bi-monthly basis: I'll create comics every other month, that means in between will just be single image illustrations, I may increase the single image illustrations in these gap months to 6, not sure, if I get way ahead of 4 (I finish early) I'd want to keep working.
2 pages of a comic per month: Instead of 4 pages on a bi-weekly basis this would be 2 pages a month instead, with the usual 4 single image illustrations.
single image illustrations on a bi-monthly basis: 4 page comic every month but 4 single image illustrations are posted every other month.
2 single image illustrations per month: comic every month but a max of 2 single image illustrations per month (I'm almost guaranteed going to be making more free works in the free time).
At least one piece of content a week, minimum (can be more): Self explanatory, I don't intend on not hitting this even with no defined schedule, but if people don't read these descriptions I write out this one may look different lol.
I'm going to finish January with the current schedule and go into February with whatever is voted to win. I'm sorry if this disappoints you but I need to take this a little slower and more realistically for my own health and livelihood. I NEVER want to take a month or week off, I just want to have a somewhat flexible amount of time.
Thank you for your support and patience as always. Even though I know this is the best thing for me to do it makes me sad.

Thank you, It's very nice to receive validation in this way. The way you put it, sounds so obvious and it never occurred to me that my enjoyment mattered. I do love what I do and enjoy interacting and entertaining everyone, but I hadn't considered myself. Thanks again!

Hmmmm I don’t think you should have a fixed schedule. You should do what you want and if you are feeling tired, take a break. You definitely don’t want to over work yourself and burn yourself out. Hehe we also want you to enjoy your art 😁

Thank you for the kind words! I can't help but feel guilty for this. II plan to stay close to the amount of content I've been making!

An artist must have their breaks in order to be happy and stress free. Do what's best for you!
