Patreon reactivation... and new pace

First of all the TLDR :

This patreon will resume charging on March. The amount of drawings per month will be reduced notably. Vip and Gold tiers will be removed,  €1 and €5 tiers will stay. In terms of value the best approach would be to stay in the €1, or join the €5 for a month to get all the old drawings you want, and then move to €1. 

Now, the whole story and explanation:

If you have been around for a while you might know that I put on hold this Patreon a couple of months ago due to some family issues (I had to take care of my father while he was getting chemotherapy, then some surgery that didn't go as well as expected and then chemotherapy again)  These and other things going not as smooth as they should (2021, you know), resulting in me being overwhelmed for quite a while. 

Now my father situation is quite stable and I finally managed to get some rest, but this whole thing made me realize that I live to near to the " breaking line". My work is quite time consuming, real life always require time and I also need to devote a certain amount of time to keep Patreon with the pace of content and rewards that I was doing till now. Due to this I've been living in an "always hurrying" status that now I realize that is not the healthiest thing to do, at least while I have a choice. 

I cannot take it easier at work and life is something that is not fully under my control, but I can take it easier in here. So I'm going to do two changes:

 In one hand I'm going to remove the Vip and Gold tiers. To be honest, I like these tiers, I like communicating monthly with you, my dear Vip and Gold patrons, but it also implies that every month I start with the pressure of having rewards to deliver, and not all months I'm in the best conditions to deliver. All of you have been very patient when I was not able to deliver on time, but I self imposed me pressure anyways. In this way the months that I feel stressed I will not have extra pressure, and the months that I feel with time enough I'll open commission slots (accessible for patrons of €1 & €5), based on the time available.

On the other hand I will reduce the time I devote to draw in general, so I won't longer provide with the usual 1 full drawing + 1 quick drawing per week. I won't guarantee any amount of content per month, altough I do guarantee that I will upload something for sure. The very least would be a drawing per month, but I'd be very surprised if that would be the case, I mean, I still love to draw! And be sure that you support helped me to keep that love to draw. I honestly believe that I would have stop drawing if it weren't by your support :)

At the moment most of you are supporting me in the €5 tier. Given this reduction in the amount of content I would suggest you to move to the €1 tier, as I don't see fair to get the same money from you in exchange of less content.

Your support has fueled me for long, and it might sound cliche, but whatever you decide to stay or go, you have my honest gratitude. Seriously. 

Stay safe! Best regards,
