Practical Tips to Create and Configure a Patreon Account and Start Creating
You can do this in less than an hour with my practical tips. Bonus: importance of building a community on Patreon. When I published my Substack Mastery book, I got in touch with some readers to obtain feedback on their first impressions.. One of the questions was which chapter was the most useful for them. It varied among readers, but one pattern emerged when I analyzed the data.  Readers from…

For anyone keeping track (no one), I have started watching the first Avengers film (MCU not the 60s TV show) but only while eating lunch so it's gonna take a while. So far Nick Fury has been assembling the Avengers (the film was initially released in the UK as Avengers Assemble - because of that 60s TV show - but it's not called that on D+ so I'm calling it what the Americans called it, just FYI) even though there's not yet anything for them to avenge as That Suit Guy (j/k I know his name too!!) isn't dead yet, and now they're on THE FUCKING VALIANT FROM DR WHO and I assume we're gonna continue assembling for a while as they're not all there yet.
MEANWHILE Loki (who is neither an alligator nor a woman in this???) is in a SECRET UNDERGROUND LAIR with a bunch of his stans who are... idk something technobabble that involves irridium and anti-protons. He is there looking for the tesseract on behalf of ???? who I know will be revealed 47 films from now as... no, wait, it wasn't, was it? That was just announced on a website or something? So it could be LITERALLY ANYONE. The Avengers (in-progress) also seem to be after that thing, but I have already forgotten why everyone is wanting it, assuming it was mentioned (it probably was).
Thor hasn't shown up yet, but Arrows Hawkeye is working as a Loki Stan and there's Steve Rogers and THE HULK and The Only Woman One, whose power is that she's a Cold War assassin (??) and I think this one is the film where she gets called a cunt (!) and honestly I am not sure which of the men she's getting officially shipped with, I think Arrows Hawkeye though? Fairly sure, as the alternative is that a man and a woman like each other as people but not in a lusty way, which would never happen obviously. (Hey I may ship mostly het* pairings but I don't always like it!)
Based on the Valiant (if u don't know who she is get da hell out of here!) I am guessing that the film ends with Loki dying in Thor's arms romantically but then I remembered that I know it can't because one of Loki got kidnapped from... either the end of this film or the start of the next one or POSSIBLY just from a later film's time-travel bit (???) but like... maybe they've edited this film secretly and I was right after all? But nobody else has watched it on Disney + recently so nobody knows yet? IT COULD HAPPEN.
Not sure what to make of this film so far, a lot's been going on yet also not much has been going on, and the one I like best so far (Suit Guy) is gonna die (NOT EVEN IN THOR'S ARMS ROMANTICALLY) and god Iron Man really hasn't aged well now that we have that one tech billionaire being a twat in public all the time to remind us what such people tend to be like. WHERE IS THOR????
*I say het but everyone in everything is bisexual, I know this because I thought of it and announced it on tumblr and will now say "I don't make the rules" to make it an objective FACT. I don't make the rules!!!
#the avengers (mcu edition not the 60s one)#(though if u close one eye and tilt ur head the black widow looks a wee bit like emma peel maybe?)#i like to think the lair of loki stans exists after this to post angrily on social media about how actually he did nothing wrong etc etc#let me know if loki's just working from a subway station that's still in use in this that'd be hilarious he'd be so annoyed by it all#torn on the tortured-by-thanos issue so far he does look messy but he might just have the flu and didn't want to back out#a lot of people are depending on him to jumpstart a movie superhero franchise he can't just take the day off can he#if loki took care of himself thor would be LITERALLY UNEMPLOYED how could he? how could YOU?#(the 'god of thunder' thing isn't a job he doesn't get paid for it so it's just a hobby)#(he doesn't even monetise that hobby! you think iron man would give you storms for free? EXACTLY. he'd have a patreon AT LEAST)#(“if you enjoyed this torrential rain pls tip me on ko-fi which is not pronounced like you think it is because it's a really BAD pun”)#and whatever the fuck my loki character tag was#like i said i really do need to categorise my lokis more it's been bothering me for a while#reminder: i am here because they cast a woman in a previously-male role and SHE'S NOT EVEN IN THIS FILM. OR ANY OF THEM. D:#don't think the alligator's gonna turn up here either :( :( :(#otherwise it's just kind of fascinating what this film assumes i do and don't know about these characters#nick fury's a goth right?#mcu tag

also one real post about this and like, plenty of ink has been spilt on how disconnected watcher entertainment seems to be from its fans but i think the missing piece here is how disconnected watcher is from the rest of youtube. when the catastrophe hit i went to all my terminally online friends, the same way i did after the hbomberguy james somerton video, or after the ned fulmer fiasco, or the creepshowart scandal etc, or every time jenny nicholson dropped a new evermore video, including the ones behind the $2 patreon paywall we all gladly pay for, and for the first time...
no one knew who i was talking about.
these are not insulated people. these are people i can trust to have at least name recognition of almost any youtuber i mention. they know downtherabbithole and strangeaeons and cjthex and kappakaiju and miniminuteman773 and kazrowe and somemorenews etc etc etc
so when i put in the group chat, with no context, 'he wasnt even on cribs' or 'we have no cats kathleen' or 'only humble pagan commune schemes' or whatever, i usually do so with great trust that at least half the group will know what im on about.
this time, crickets.
i backpedaled a little and pulled up the 'ive connected them' meme and the fuzzy blue professor, and i got nothing at all. the only recognition i got was when someone belatedly realized that he had seen the goatman video when it dropped (although he had no idea that they had their own company now), and another person remembered that they had offered to collab with danny gonzalez, a youtuber with twice the subscribers
Tumblr media
because she had checked back to see if danny went ghost hunting again, and lost interest because he hadnt.
i also brought it up in my dedicated buzzfeed unsolved group chat but ummmmm i am the only one in that group still watching ever since the shift to watcher oops
the only splash they had made in my again, TERMINALLY ONLINE friend group that watches hours and hours of youtube a day was a buzzfeed video seven years ago, and when they had failed to collab with someone more famous than them. i found myself in the unusual position of having to explain the situation to a bunch of dirty internet gremlins, all of whom heard the whole story and said 'why would they do that'
not 'why would they do that to their fans' but 'why would they do that as youtubers'
even aside from the moneygrubbing, we watcher stans were confused about why they tried to offer us a service we didn't need or want, and i think it obscured the confusion on why they thought it was a good idea at all, when so many other models were available to them. why werent they using their patreon like other youtubers? why weren't they collaborating with other youtubers? why weren't they putting out regular, lower quality content like other youtubers? if they wanted higher quality content, why weren't they partnering with nebula, like lindsay ellis, or netflix, like bo burnham. why didn't they run their ideas past someone like the green brothers, who have jumpstarted scishow and many other similar projects successfully, and are famously good to work with/consult with? why would they try to pull a roosterteeth? don't they know what happened?
and i think the answer is no. i think they just don't know those things. and they didnt bother to check, because they think all those things are beneath them. because they think corporate content is the only worthwhile kind there is.
why else would they think they have to have an office building, keep dozens of people on staff, buy expensive cameras, and build a streaming platform? why do they only collaborate with actors and singers who have corporate entertainment approval? why are they reinventing the wheel on buzzfeed when thousands of youtubers build perfectly stable careers with a mic and a camera, and sometimes hire an editor?
i guess my takeaway from this is that, at least they didnt break my heart as a fan entirely because they fundamentally misunderstood me. they did it, at least in part, because they do not understand how youtube works, or what part they play in it.
they dont understand how people use youtube. it is not a cinematic event worthy of the big tv, it is line goes up playing in the background for the 400th time as i wash my face and put my laundry away.
that is why they spent months and months planning this without ever noticing it was a bad idea, while millions of youtube viewers knew instantly. thats why they didn't start with a more moderate solution, why they never used their patreon properly, why they cared so much about the production value, why they thought a youtube audience, any audience at all, would jump at the chance to leave youtube.
bc youtube as a creator sucks, and we all know that, but youtube as a viewer is extremely comfortable. all i ask of youtube is to be mildly interesting in the background while i do other stuff. it is filler. some of the filler is extremely good, yes, but there is no room or reason in my life to give more of my money and attention to my filler, let alone to get a bigger screen for it.
and honestly, this is why i and others stayed on with the ghoul boys even though their quality dropped. because it's filler. im not even looking at the screen you apparently spent 100k on. im flipping my eggs. im washing my hair. im waiting for the bus with my headphones in and my phone in my pocket. thank you for being my background music. in return i will sit through your ads and push your view counter up by one. i may even hit the like button by accident bc my phone is in my pocket.
this is not to say i dont enjoy my filler. i would absolutely die without it. but it is not and never will be exchanged for the instances when i make popcorn in The Big Bowl and turn on a Real Movie on the Big Screen (my old laptop that is 15 whole inches) with my phone turned over so nothing can distract me.
my filler can't be my movie, and vice versa. nor should it be. but watcher doesnt understand that, apparently. they think youtube is cruelly preventing them from being netflix, and they think we want netflix, and they don't understand that, even with that half-assed apology that they didn't explain their dream correctly and they are jsut so destitute they had to take extreme measures after they went to europe 6 too many times...
there is a fundamental misunderstanding about how people use youtube , both as creators and as consumers. they didn't just misunderstand their fanbase. they continue to misunderstand the entire ecosystem. idk guys. maybe you should have learned something from those youtubers that you apparently think you are too good for.
and as for me, welp. i've booted people from my filler line-up for less. and there are soooooooooooooo many other fish in the sea, and they are not asking me to pay them 27 corporation salaries from my own pocket. they are asking for me to bump their view counter up by one.
goodbye boys. i really hope you find a way to fulfill yourselves artistically or whatever. but you have burned this particular bridge, like. forever. and i don't think i'm the only one who feels that way.
and not because i dont support people getting a living wage, you guilt-tripping vultures, or because i dont believe in following dreams and wishing on stars and whatnot.
but because i prefer to consume content from people who know what they're doing, and i simply no longer trust that includes you.

Okay a little bit about my life here, I realized I only spoke about it on discord!
- In July I had appointments and eventually a corrective eye surgery called PRK.
- The eye surgery went well but the healing part did not, which led me to become blind from an eye for a day. Due to this I underwent another eye surgery.
- Even the results of this second one weren't that great and it appears my eye heals very slowly. I am currently seeing very blurry from it and sometimes I use an eyepatch 🏴‍☠️
- Overall this has been a nightmare.
- I currently can't open commissions like I promised I would, neither jumpstart my Patreon like I promised I would.
- I do plan on making quick colored commissions (same style I have been doing for art fight) to try and get back some of the money i lost on missed planes and bus trips.
So this is it and basically, I am trying to recover and thank you all for your patience 😌

2023 in review
Just the fannish creations, thanks. I don't want to think too hard about how fucking weird and stressful the year was outside of that. XD
I found some old 00Q art hiding on my hard drive and posted it in Feb.
I wrote a short Inception ficlet for @ladyprydian in April to try to jumpstart my muses. It didn't work.
I binge-wrote a whole-ass Sandman fic with (gasp!) fade-to-black porn in it in May.
July brought the Stony games! I was much less prolific than last year, but I managed a few things, starting with 3 little drabbles about perception.
I did a giftfic for the games! It starts in media res and I, being a troll, titled it In Pornia Res because yeah, this one's just pure porn against a background of worldbuilding.
I posted a longstanding WIP that was 100% self-indulgent trash, with Tony and Steve getting Bucky as their new sugar baby and treating him them right. Absolutely just the fluffiest of trash, but 66K of it!
I posted another longstanding WIP that's really pre-slash (I KNOW so weird) but involves catboy Tony, catboy Bucky, and a puppy Steve who's gonna get both (after the fic anyway).
My last little Stony Games fill was 8-bit pixel porn, because of course it was.
Later in August I did the "write what you want to see" thing and banged out (heh) a very kinky Stranger Things fic with Steve/Eddie and a leather bar. Somehow, it's still extremely fluffy.
I drew! Fanart! With pens and shit! Also Steve/Eddie.
And then I made pixel art of them, because why not.
Another Steddie fic, this time a modern AU with 'lost touch' feelings and also banging the rockstar in his hotel room.
And finally, my MTH2021 fic is posting a year late, and will continue on into the new year. It's all done and edited, I just like the daily posting method for getting drip-fed dopamine and also sitting there posting 29 chapters at once is no bueno.
You can find all of this stuff here, so I'm not link-stuffing the post: https://archiveofourown.org/users/swtalmnd/works
What's Coming in 2024 (besides my blorbos)
I have a few more Stuckony WIPs waiting in the wings, including my MTH 2022 fic, which I hope to finish in time to actually participate in 2024.
I have at least 1 novel coming out and maybe 2? I didn't publish ANY original fiction last year (gah), but I finished 1 draft (the sequel to Hive) and am plodding along on 2 more (Julian 4 and something new). I am so slow these days, tho, gah. I have no idea how some people put out multiple books a year, year after year.
I've got a few more Eeveeon arts to share, which I always forget to do on Tumbls.
I might actually open commissions next year (for art, I don't enjoy fic commissions).
I'm gonna a Stuckony Valentine thing, so you'll get at least one short fic from me in Feb.
I'm hoping something new will sweep me into its fandomy arms, because while I do love my current blorbos (MCU & Stranger Things), neither one is really doing the full fixation dance in my brain and that's sad. OTOH I'd like to finish my MCU WIPs before that spark fully dies ahahaha haha ha.
As far as art goes, I'm keeping up my Patreon sketch cards and not a ton else, but my new-new meds are helping me Get Shit Done, so I'm really hoping that I can get back into larger-than-a-playing-card artwork, both fannish and non.
I'm still gonna do more of my 8-bit bullshit, though.

Episode 612 - Roland Allen
With THE NOTEBOOK: A History of Thinking on Paper (Biblioasis), Roland Allen explores how the proliferation of paper & binding changed culture, business, and maybe the nature of human consciousness. We talk about how keeping a diary got him obsessed-ish with notebooks, how he found a narrative and protagonists as he delved into the history of notebooks, and what it means to see the notebook as a piece of technology/hardware. We get into their influence on art and the Renaissance (and the theory that sketchbooks allowed artists to move toward realism), how diaries created a new, private persona distinct from the public self, how he discovered a new reading for a line of Hamlet, and how digital options never manage to replace the paper notebook. We also discuss how Moleskine came to dominate the notebook market and how Bruce Chatwin's The Songlines jumpstarted their craze, how Roland learned to switch off the "this isn't interesting" filter in his own diaries, how writing this book made him a better notebooker, the way Dutch album amicorum (friendship books) served as a social media precursor, how our notebooks can outlive us (and his posthumous plans for his diaries), and a lot more. Follow Roland on Bluesky • More info at our site • Support The Virtual Memories Show via Patreon or Paypal and via our e-newsletter

hii! I’m sorry if this is personal question (u can skip this), but after how long did you start your patreon? And is it a good earning for a broke uni student? Bc I'm considering it as a side earning, it would help my financial situations😭
Hi hon! It’s fine! I started my tumblr blog in may 22 and then patreon in Nov 23. I wanted wait until I had a certain amount of followers here on tumblr before I started. You do need to have some followers and have a little traction in order to get paying patrons. People will want to already be invested in you and your writing style before they might be willing to pay.
So once you have those elements, you can set goals for yourself on how often to post and what you’d like to charge then get some fics ready beforehand that you’d like to jumpstart your launching of patreon and drop posts here on tumblr with teasers to attract new subscribers.
I hope that helps a little and good luck 💕💕
Xoxo

Heroes Never Die
Chapter 1: The Road Taken - Page 108
Mr. Bus Driver tries to keep his cool.
P.S.: Please DO NOT jumpstart a car engine just like that, especially when it overheated! I have zero car repair skills and wasn't researching too much about car/bus breakdowns.

✮ mini shadow reading ✮
pile one, two, or three?
Tumblr media
˚ ༘♡ ⋆。˚ ❀ pile one
[temperance reversed + ten of wands] hiii pile one. so your shadow is very indulgent, i see. you may over spend, over analyze or just over do a lot of different things in your life. taking on too much responsibility may be one of those things. i feel like you take away your own free time and give it to others. your shadow is imbalanced, pile one. i understand that hard work and responsibilities are important, but rest and peace is just as important. you may feel like a failure or lazy person whenever you rest, but that is not the case. when you don’t get the rest you need, you’re likely to burn out and you’ll put yourself in the energy of wanting to give up on everything all at once. you are capable of everything you wish to achieve, just please allow yourself to take frequent breaks. you deserve peace, i promise.
˚ ༘♡ ⋆。˚ ❀ pile two
[ace of wands reversed + three of swords reversed] you have so much potential, pile two! why do you think so negatively about yourself? why are you doubting your purpose? it’s normal to have some moments of doubt, please don’t let it keep you from jumpstarting your dreams and finishing your goals! i understand life can seem so harsh and things take time, but remember that the universe likes slow. the sun is 4 billion years old, and it has 4 billion more years to go. imagine if the sun was impatient? please take your time and allow yourself to grow at your own pace. don’t compare yourself to others, your story is not their story!! you have so much within you that needs to be released into the world, you’d explode if it all happened at once. be patient with yourself.
˚ ༘♡ ⋆。˚ ❀ pile three
[ace of cups + the devil reversed] you are scared to share yourself with those you love, aren’t you, pile three? you may think they won’t love you anymore, or they’ll view you differently. you may also have trouble trusting those you love, thinking that there’s a darker side to them that they are keeping from you. well, everyone has their secrets. some people have more secrets than others, but everyone has something they’d prefer to keep to themselves, at least until they’re comfortable opening up. don’t assume the worst, pile three. try to be more accepting of others and yourself. it’s okay to have limitations and boundaries, but i promise you there are people who will accept you for all that you are.
thank you for reading and interacting! <3

Er-what does Eddie Rambler think of B Dylan Hollis?👨‍🍳
So fair warning, I find his tiktoks (as I do many tiktoks) super difficult to watch, so I've never watched one all the way through with sound. I've seen bits and pieces of plenty, via tumblr, so I know the general gist; this is absolutely nothing against him, he's doing great work and he's cute as a button, I just am not actually all that familiar with his ouvre in detail, and don’t know much about him personally.
I think Eddie probably thinks he's super cool, nothing but positive things to say and definitely he follows his work. But Eddie doesn't really see them as working in the same niche -- which is good, because it means they're not trying for the same viewers. While they both work broadly in food entertainment, Eddie's primary aim is to talk about food -- how to cook, how to think about food and culture -- while Hollis's primary aim is to entertain with food. Those aren't competing goals, they're two different and equally vital parts of an ecosystem.
Also he has mad props for the fact that Hollis doesn't pull punches -- if something that sounded gross tastes good he'll admit it freely, and kitsch game recognizes kitsch game.
Eddie would have come up in food entertainment just slightly before the rise of foodtok/foodtube, and he was instrumental in developing it, so he has a head start on a lot of the young, slick food entertainment stars that are now coming up, many of whom in some ways are biting his style because he’s what came before. He’s got a slightly bigger fanbase and they’re old enough that some have disposable income with which to fund patreons, buy cookbooks, and all that good revenue-stream-developing stuff. 
So Eddie is, though it’s kind of a funny pun, a “kingmaker” in his own way. He’s been able to help publicize a lot of strong talents with shoutouts on his already-established influencer platform, and an endorsement from him can jumpstart a career. So he has definitely referenced/publicized Hollis's social media in the past and thinks the kid's going places. If he ever finds a suitably appalling recipe in the Shivadh National Library archives, he’ll pass it on. :D

Its surgery day! OMG I never thought I would be this excited to get knocked out and have my face sliced open wait that sounds not great huh. REWIND. Sooooo I head to the hospital in about five hours and am just killing time like a murderer until then, I’ve got ants in my pants and am doing a funky dance, hey can anyone tell I’m excited?
ANYWAY. Just want to once again express from the bottom of my heart how grateful I am for all the help getting here. I have legit been working towards getting this surgery for about five years now and the last couple of years especially with the pandemic have felt like standing still and I was starting to think it would never actually happen. I would not be able to actually go and get this today without all of your help, whether you just signal boosted donation posts or sent stuff in, so thank you, thank you, thank you. This will literally transform the entire quality of my life and enable me to do all kinds of things that I was working towards BEFORE this happened but got put on indefinite pause while I pretty much devoted my entire life and focus to getting my jaw fixed.
I’ll be going radio silent now and likely for the rest of the month, though possibly I’ll be ‘back’ sooner than then. Don’t be surprised if you see me follow you all of a sudden this weekend, I’m probably gonna be loading up my dash with a lot more people to keep me occupied while I’m bedridden - like, don’t get weirded out if you see me suddenly follow you and yet not interact with your posts at all, it doesn’t mean anything other than that for the moment I’m mostly just likely to be scrolling and reading.
I’ve got a lot of stuff queued up for this month under both my TW and Batfam pseudonyms, the first ‘new’ chapter of LC should post later today and will be followed this weekend by a Dick and Cass one-shot, and then there should be stuff semi-regularly throughout the month. In addition, since once I’m back on my feet I do intend to dive in to jumpstarting a lot of original projects that have been on hold for literal years, I’ve got posts about some of those queued up to hopefully get some people intrigued by those. First up there is a deep dive into my big space opera universe, so hopefully people who enjoy my worldbuilding will get a kick out of that.
My patreon is queued up to ‘open’ next week, once some of the posts about original projects are up, with the stuff for this month on it pretty much automated, and then next month I’ll be adding more stuff and more tiers. I will be back on my feet next month and able to work regularly at non-work from home positions again, and without the need to pay for my super pricey insurance anymore, I’ll be MUCH better off financially and should no longer need donation posts anymore in the future. My queued fic posts for this month will include links to my ko-fi and paypal (which can also be found on the main page of my blog) if people feel inclined to leave a tip or whatever, because I flat out will not be able to add any new income this month, and I am still gonna have a lot of work ahead of me getting new teeth, lol.....but the goal is by next month to have shifted entirely to just supplementing my work income with actual content creation via patreon and possibly commissions.
My post with a list of all my Batfam WIPs will be popping up again this month, as will a post with a list of all my unfinished or unposted TW fics, and while I can’t put a timeline on anything until I see how much more free time or energy I have to devote to fic in the coming months, I WOULD like to pay forward what I can from all the help I’ve received in the form of fic. So make a note of anything you’re particularly interested in, whichever fandom you follow me for, and if you’ve donated to help me get to my surgery, feel free to message me at some point, even just on anon if you prefer, with the name you used when donating and what fic you look forward to, and I’ll try to prioritize accordingly. If you donated completely anonymously with no name attached like via ko-fi, I mean, I’m fine just going by the honor code but I am more likely to get to ones with a name attached sooner rather than later, just because like, when people donate with a name attached to the donation that tends to linger in my brain and like, I have various names in my head that I’ve been desperately wanting to ‘give back to’ in some way for a long time now, if that makes sense? 
But just to be clear, I’m kinda gonna be winging this entire process here and it’ll be more an evolving situation kinda thing as I experiment with my newfound time and energy and focus and fold this in around my other work. Its definitely something I plan on committing to for as long a period of time as I need to be able to at least give back or pay forward SOMETHING to as many people as want it. If there’s one thing I’m good at, its committing longterm. I spent the past five years working towards this damn surgery, I do not at all mind spending the next five years finding ways to give back to those who helped me get it. (As an example but not limited to the following: people with the initials A.A, A.R.C., Z.D., K.C., M+L.T, D.V., I.B., H.J., T.G., D.G., C.S., S.M., E.N. and the mysterious ‘K’......YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE - even if I don’t, lmao. Well I know some of you, but some of you mystery strangers I wanna gratitude-doxx so hard, you don’t even know).
I think that’s all I wanted to say for now, but watch me recollect a whole five other paragraphs I wanted to add the second they hit me with the anesthesia lmao. For now though, I bid all of you lovelies an eternally grateful adieu, and I’ll see you all on the other side of Actual Jaw-Having!

Selva Collection: Narina Set
This set was inspired by Selvadorada, obviously, and jumpstarted the whole Selva collection last summer (I have four more sets ready to match this one in addition to Colors Set and Basic Panelling Set). Prints in this collection are jungle and rainforest-themed, colors warm and earthy. They match perfectly with the EA palette and some of the colors that my favorite creator @peacemaker-ic  uses.​
The matching full wall panelling can be downloaded here.
basegame compatible
4 wallpaper variations
12 painted wood colors
7 wall types
all wall heights available

Faebruary 2022 the twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth
So firstly, catchup for day 27!! Prompts from PadawanDesign (jumping backward on their list a bit) and PhoenixFeathersArt – “Mech” and “Stars.”
So, some softness for Onna after the angst I drew her in yesterday, and something a bit AU for her and her dear Tock (both of “Tock the Gnome” ) – or at least we’ll see if this happens.
I know how it would fit. I know what certain new jewelry means. I know who would give them wings like this, and for what occasion…. 💕
And secondly, day 28!! From HitorikArt’s “Key” (from day 27) and PhoenixFeathersArt’s “Moon” (to pair with the Star theme above, since the prompts were presented together!).
Featuring my friend @glombie's OCs, Frelwic the Gnome and his boyfriend, Ælfric the knight. We’d talked about them a while back, and I was so excited to finally get to draw them both! ….I do not know what their story is yet, though, so I hope this doesn’t contradict anything – but even that, making it AU in that case, is in and of itself very Faerie, yes? That space of liminality. Possibilities. So I feel like both of today’s entries are a perfect note to end on.
…..and not just because of the schmoop. Though the schmoop helps.
(And everybody check out Glombie’s work, it is super charming! Go go!)
Aaaaaand that makes a complete challenge!! I went into this intending to be super casual about it, and of course failed at that, and still have so many things bouncing around my brainspace that I’d hoped to draw for this but didn’t make it in. Still, I chose to participate because I hoped it would jumpstart my creativity and get me set to work on commissions again (since this winter has been a challenging buttwaffle) and it has done that! Thanks again to everyone who puts out prompt lists and keeps the event going, and especially to Hitorik, who invited me in the first place.
Here’s to whatever is next! I’m gonna go take a nap.

Class poll + updates soon + new schedule
Tumblr media
Don’t forget to vote here on the patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/class-poll-69211028
Hello everybody! Sorry for the slow updates the past few months. A series of work, personal, and family emergencies meant that for a while there I was only ever at work or at my parent’s place taking care of them. Things are still pretty buckwild over here but I’ve recently gotten a laptop so I’ve started working on ETD on the go. The upshot of this is that the old weekly-ish update schedule is starting back up soon with an update about a week from now. This update will contain at the minimum art for 4 npcs. Over the summer I will be working triple speed to get caught up on all the updates I missed this year.
To get a jumpstart on things I’m posting the new class poll today, please it out!
Lastly I am adjusting the development schedule for the new cutscenes. To keep myself from burning out on writing tasks I’ll be spreading them out among the updates and doing them 12 at a time instead of all at once. The new schedule looks like this:
