2020 Patreon Updates
Added 2019-12-19 00:09:43 +0000 UTC
Hi everyone!
It’s been a crazy year to say the least. First of all, I want to thank everyone here from the bottom of my heart so much. When I started cosplay, it was extremely scary because I had quit 2 jobs in order to pursue it. If it wasn’t for all of you here on Patreon, I literally would not have had any means to be able to continue what I love. I am so thankful for each and every one of you, and I am so grateful out of all the people you could have supported, you were kind enough to support me.
With this being said, I have decided to change up Patreon for next year. It has been on my mind for a while now, and I think its time to be transparent with all of you.
The fact of the matter is that I am honestly not updating Patreon enough. I am so thankful that you have still chosen to be here despite my lack of content, which I feel awful for. The last few months in particular have been some of the most wonderful, but most stressful months of the year. What I have realized is that I have spread myself too thin, and because of that, Patreon has been lacking and suffering. I know most of you have told me that it’s not a big deal, but to me, I feel it has been unfair with how much you have done for me, and what I have been able to give in return. As a result of this, I have decided to change Patreon starting January into something that is less stressful, and hopefully easier for all of us!
**TLDR BELOW
I have decided to turn Patreon into more of a “tip jar” mentality, in that I will post whatever I can, when I can, but the content given with be the same for everyone. I will have 2 tiers: 1 tier for tipping whatever you’d like, and 1 tier for a physical reward (most likely between $20-$30). Thats it!
Doing this will allow me to feel less pressured to produce multiple sets of content, while also being able to give a monthly physical reward to people as well. One of my biggest regrets this year has been the neglect I have had to Patreon due to how chaotic my schedule has been. I’m hoping that this way, I will be able to get more creative under less pressure, which will hopefully give me a healthier mindset to be able to produce more content.
Hopefully this will be ok with you guys, I’d love to know what you think before I change things up and move forward with everything. <3

Though, with these changes, what will happen with Discord, Snapchat, and the Facebook Beanstreams? Will it be accessible for everyone who supports you on Patreon, or will there be changes/removal?
