Update Status - August 2020 (Resuming Works & Charges)

Hello there,

I hope where ever you all are, you are all doing great even within all the dire circumstances we all are living in. Hang in there! I love you guys, girls and wolves. It really means a lot seeing that I still have your support after so many years. 

So...Where Have I been? Well I've been around, just doing other stuff in real life or just not doing much to be honest. I've been living with my family since Covid started. Trying to work on other things while supporting each other. 

But I have to say,  my lack of art content doesn't have ties with the current pandemic situation. Although I've had my fair share of health issues that I've been taking care off lately, luckily none of those have been related to this deadly disease.

My major problem when it comes to produce the content that you like, it had been related to mental issues. Something I've had to deal with  since my last time around here, and for those who follow me for longer, for many years now. 

Depression is a difficult thing to explain, it varies how deeply affects each person and sometimes it can even affect you physically, a result I've experienced it myself (Anxiety disorders, vertigo, intense headaches and more).

In any case, drawing was not an option when you feel so empty inside. And I know this has been a cycle with me for the past several years. And this may not be my last hiatus at all. 

But I have to acknowledge that there is something more clear to me now, that if I want to feel more at home when working and drawing is that I can't keep writing down promises that I can't keep for long period of times. 

And that means that much of the content I've listed for the past few years I can't keep delivering to the rate I've imposed on myself, without also feeling burnt out after two or three months. Meaning that Tier Rewards may be adjusted soon. I'm not sure what I'll take away or move around, but I just want to focus on 3 or 2 comics at much + commissions if possible.

Now, about the last months fee charges from Patreon...

I know you where charged on May and July (When I wasn't active). Because I just screwed up. Think about it like a light switch, One time I genuinely forgot about to turn it off and the other time I guess I clicked on it twice.

But I want to be honest with you, for many years I never charged when I was on a hiatus because that felt like the right thing to do and I still feel the same way. If you feel you've been robbed because of my miss management, or you're just having money issues, please send me a refund request through Patreon PM and I will do so (just a text with your email will do).

But if you happen to feel that despite my lack of new content you feel you were supporting the artist behind the content too, and you're ok with that. Then I really can't thank you enough. As I said, even when Covid hasn't been a factor on my output of art, it has slowly become a financial crisis that I'm managing with my family.

And I hope you manage to understand where I am coming from.

So, what now?

Well, right now I am resuming works and soon I'll let you know about the change on the content delivery. Tomorrow or this Saturday I should start adding new stuff. Until then, howls and again, thanks you for everything.

Don't worry about it Leo. Depression's a bitch that'll rear its ugly head from time to time. You're definitely not alone in feeling like that! We're all here for you! Keep sharing your amazing work so you can impress us with it every time!

Thank you for communicating this. I wish you the best in your struggles, and am still thankful for everything you've shared with your fans.

Glad to see you back! Depression is certainly very challenging. Don't be too hard on yourself. Your top priority should always be taking care of your own well-being :)

Rose Crowley

Leo, thanks for this update. I know how even mild depression can undermine your ability to live the life you want in so many ways, and how it can be hard to talk about. Just keep pulling through. And remember that you're still as good at this as you've ever been.
