Hey Boo,
There are two things that annoy me. When the rules keep changing arbitrarily and people freaking out all the time.

Patreon makes both of these things happen. There's been a Patreon TOS controversy every week, without fail. I want to save my energy for being excited. I prefer people to be calm about this sort of thing. If you, my dear boo, had patreon suddenly review your page and didn't know what to do. I'd want you to ask for help, ignore the asshole who says 'you had it coming' and deserve it. Form a plan and lay in backups. 

To me, what controversy always means is that now is the best time.
-When should you support the creator you like? NOW
-When should you start working on that project? NOW
-When should you ask for support for that project? NOW
-When should you buy that game you've been wondering about? NOW
-When should you introduce that hobby with friends or join a community? NOW

*I never want people to do irresponsible things. Keep sheltered and fed, boo. 

I always think of Monster Girl Island. Patreon told him to change his game. They shrugged and said he had made enough money to finish the game and dip. Then, an unnecessary subterfuge happened that I don't understand (and I only bring up because people will try to tell me).

I love the feeling of saying that I have my support and community, if you don't want a cut--that's fine.

Progress!
I'm still working everyday. I'm always wishing I was faster. I'll be trying out getting some assistance for my renders and I'll see how that works. 

Long term, it's my goal to have artist and manager/programmer so I can focus on writing. I think part of that goal has shifted because I do really like making renders. Creating characters, images, challenging myself in a visual artistic medium is really cool. I'm just not fast. So, I'll probably do some kind of daz art as things grow but first they have to grow.

Free Version
I still plan on giving chapter 1 a free play weekend. The reason why it hasn't happened yet is that I want it closer to my release of chapter 2. About a week before freeweekend I'll increase the price of the game and put it on sale so that it is at the current price. That sale will expire on free weekend and there will be another sale masking it at a dollar more until the release of chapter 2. Then when chapter 2 launches, it will be at full price. That's the whole plan that I've been keeping close to my chest.

PATREON
So, patreon is having themselves a time. The rules have changed but they are mostly the same, only clarified and a little more specific. PUSSIES CAN'T BE WET ON PATREON. If you can't get a pussy wet in the first place, might as well make it a rule. A very shapiro move. dry Pusstreon already had rules against posting nudity to public posts and posting any sex on the site. This is why I do pin-ups for my patreon rewards. All of my past rewards are in line with the new guidelines. You can't have a woman presenting and spreading.

I've always done more than the patreon reward renders and some of those are on discord. 

If push ever comes to shove, I have a SubscribeStar and I don't have to post supporter rewards to Patreon. It would actually be more convenient if I could just post them to discord but not everyone is on discord.

Lucky Renders
OH BOY, I just thought of St Panties day! I'm doing that next year.

First there is Gail and Dora!
This was my St Paddy's Day render but now that the holiday is over, they can take off their green.

The renders might be added to the post later because most of the finished ones might look like a celebrity and some of those renders won't make it to patreon.

A lucky chance encounter has ended with you having lunch with Nena Quick. She rented out the whole restaurant because she wants to be extra flirty with you but she is afraid of the waiter catching you.

Rewards
No one stopped me from doing things differently. This month's patreon rewards are Oops all Redheads. I have special renders posted on the third Wednesday of every month for all 18+ tiers. This is going to be another thin month for pinups.
