🕑 Added 2022-10-27 12:00:08 +0000 UTCHello dear patrons,
there's still time before November but I wanted to be upfront with you:
I'm not sure if I will manage to fully finish the ongoing witches animation in time for halloween.
I'm often feeling overwhelmed and tired lately. I can only speculate but maybe it's because animation isn't in my comfort zone yet, which makes it harder when not feeling at the best of my capabilities. With illustration I can automatically follow an efficient process without thinking much about it. It's not the same with animation and it takes more than a few years to really get good and consistent at it. I would feel relieved if I eventually manage to pull that off, but I'm considering going back to draw illustrations as exclusive content at best or pausing my Patreon until I get better at worst. I'm really sorry this is happening right now.
Anyway, we'll see how things turn out by the end of October. Any encouragement and advice about dealing with anxiety/stress/exhaustion are welcome right now.
As always thank you for your support, everyone. I truly mean it.

Yeah, a vacation makes sense but it's a tough choice considering I really need a monthly income. With proper scheduling taking short breaks more often sounds feasible though. As always thanks for rooting for me for a long time, Crufl! <3

Thanks Kinniku, I get what you mean but unfortunately anxiety and stress make it so difficult to keep a clear mind. Today I took a break and may have figured out a few things to do daily.

taking a break is generally how I deal with stress. I certainly wouldn't begrudge you a vacation after all the hard work you've put in this year. Whether you forge on or step back for a bit, I'll be here rooting for you.

I don't really have much advise I can offer, but I will say that I always encourage people to do what they think is best for themselves, so whatever you are most comfortable with at this point might be the best option. I hope you are able to find a good way to manage your stress and anxiety.
