Life, Patreon and YCH News! (a little wordy but please read)

General
Greetings fuzzbutts and cuties everywhere! I've got some cool announcements to make!
Now where do I begin? First I'm going to start with some background as to my life situation. I'm bleeding money every paycheck, and most of my cash goes straight to bills. That being said I'm also living with my parents and paying rent to them. They don't bother me a lot with my personal life, but I have to give them rent money, which kinda sucks. Also with my grandmother being sick and possibly passing soon, I've been devoting extra time to seeing her and taking care of her. This has pretty much interfered with how much art I can do regularly and rightfully so; this is the woman who raised me every summer.
Commissions are excellent, and I will not stop doing them. However planning ideas with people, getting them correct, and then waiting for them to show up in a stream takes a lot of time! I like doing commissions, don't get me wrong, but I need other forms of support. So this is where I'm going to announce my Patreon! It's still a WIP with different pay levels, but you're going to have the option to support me for just a couple bucks a month so I can continue making art! I'll make a journal when it's good and ready!
Now for the announcement of doing YCH's!
Before people get up in arms agreeing or disagreeing with me about the merits of YCH auctions, I just wanna make it clear that I WILL NOT STOP DOING COMMISSIONS. YCH's are a way for me to create a faster and more responsive revenue to help me pay with bills and accumulate money for eventually moving out. I want my art to be my cushion and it seems like YCH's are a great way to start with being that go-to artist.
So for now, I'm going to put the remaining commission list on hold (I hope you guys understand) and I want to try something new with these. I'm getting some amazing tips from other talented artists on how to approach them and I hope you guys find the poses worth a look!
ANYWAYS:
Thank you boys n girls n everything in between for supporting me and sticking by me all these years through my changes. I feel like 2015 is going to be the year I finally peak.
FA+

Best wishes with your endeavors and goals. I'm rooting for you.
good luck.
