Happy New Year

I wanted to say how thankful I am for everyone her to start. I appreciate you all and fingers and toes crossed that things will be better for us all this year. I know, especially for us in the US, things are not looking so great. I have been raw dawging life without health insurance for a few years and don't look like that'll change this year. I know that money is tight for us all, so with that said, those on a paying level, I really really appreciate you and do not feel guilty if you need to cancel for a month or more, or move to a lesser level. You gotta take care of yourself first. We are all closer to being homeless than being rich, and having been homeless before, I would not wish that on anyone.

Now to the fun stuff. I got all the rewards for this month already in my hot little hands, or rather the drawer of Patreon stuff and mailing supplies. I will put up a poll soon for designs for next month's rewards and am open to suggestions. So feel free to leave a comment on here of what you would like the theme or design for next month to be, if you are not on a paying level and want to add your suggestions in, you can do that through Discord. The "Ideas-and-feedback" thread is the spot for that. I will be adding the leftover stickers from this month to the shop next week on my days off from the regular job, you all will get 1st notice. The last few rewards will be going out in the mail tomorrow. I know 2 of those are overseas so they might take a while to reach you.

Also announcing my 1st event of the new year. Literally at the end of this month is Monroe Oddities and Horror show in Monroe Michigan, Jan 31- Feb 1st. https://www.facebook.com/OdditiesFest

If any of you are able to make it out, that would be great. I'm still unsure about out of state shows due to cost and travel. One way to help out with that is if I am a guest at a convention. Usually guests get their table for free, maybe even their rooms payed for. That would help with my cost a lot. You can go to your favorite convention site and there is usually a form or contact info to contact those putting on the show, and you can usually request a guest artist or creator. I am not all that big or popular so I doubt I will get in, but doesn't hurt to try I guess lol. You can request me as a guest at your local conventions, and my contact email is in my link tree. Besides that I have 2 shows planned for sure. The Horror fest above and Midland Mall comic con https://www.facebook.com/events/1035483218531344/?acontext=%7B%22event_action_history%22%3A[%7B%22surface%22%3A%22home%22%7D%2C%7B%22mechanism%22%3A%22search_results%22%2C%22surface%22%3A%22search%22%7D]%2C%22ref_notif_type%22%3Anull%7D

I have returned to writing on the Skin Woods, horror novel, still picking at outlines and characters for Where Roses Go To Die. Still looking for a suitable writer to work with on Incorporeal while just writing it myself as well, incase I never find the right collaborator. Also still working on the comic Daddy, where do monsters come from? and I still have yet to crack at outlines and character designs for Wheels on the bus and Black eyed child. Going into this month with the new patreon level structure, I should have more time to work on all of those.

With all that, again, thank you all. I will be back with a poll based on your suggestions, then sketches for you all to vote on. Thank you, and heres to 2026.
