Heat, Memories of Friends Passed, Depression...
10 years ago
General
Was wondering why I have been in an art doldrums the past couple of weeks. And it became pretty obvious in retrospect. The passing of multiple friends and fellow artists both in the fandom and without, the sheer oppressive heat over here in California, all leading into a nasty bout of self-pity and depression...coupled with new medications i'm taking for the host of OTHER issues I get to deal with...it all just came together...and did nothing. I kinda figured out what's been affecting me, and now...now I get to take action and remedy it all. This is actually a GOOD THING (tm and patent pending). See, for many years, I'd just be in these funks, and pretty much unable to find a way out. Well...at least there's SOME improvement, cause I'm fixing the situations, and getting myself back out of said funk. '
Course, now I have to start that whole Patreon thing...and I am WOEFULLY underprepared. But we need the finances, so...it's either take the risk or stay where we are at, which is...just BLAH.
SO...First question...how the bloody hell do I even create a Patreon page? I'm gonna work on some artwork this week for said page. Advertising blurbs and such. UGH so much to DO.

Let me know if there's anything I can do for you. As far as setting up a Patreon correctly, well, go look at Jay Naylor's page, or Jeremy Bernal's. Both effective and well-done.

At least you recognize that there is a problem! A lot of people don't realize they're in said funk until someone ELSE points it out to them! :)

Actualy working on that. Painting the house, dealing with a roach infestation, and 40 hour work weeks are taking their toll on me.
