I know I don't post much communication here as I probably should. To be honest, I find Patreon to be a little confusing. Case in point, I just found out about an area called Dashboard, and in that area are Exit Surveys where patrons can tell you why they are not patrons anymore. One reason kept popping up that says "The creator wasn't engaging like I expected." Now I know it seems silly to ask those who are still here why people would  choose this reason, but here I am, asking anyway.

Please, let me know what I can do for you and others that would make you continue to be a patron and would make you want to give me positive feedback. I am a really busy person and only do this as a side gig. But I can try and accommodate you. I hope you take the time to let me know your concerns.

Thank you,

Will admit that I'm not one for interaction, but I love your stuff. Always brings a smile to my face when I see you've posted something new. (Might request more water-based peril but that's just because I'm a sucker and have a type). Keep up the amazing work! :D

Well, "engaging" is a hard one to judge. So many factors come into play when i look at the artists im subbed to. I mean some people you get access to pretty much their entire patreon feedback years & thus their art backwards, but others keep a tight lock a month back &/or request money for past month art. Then there is the question of the "quality" of the art. In one end you have people like Calm or Sabu who ususally does 1 picture a month & the 1-2 picture you get is so detailed you can stare at it for hours with a magnifying glass. Then you have people like Skottie Kimble that get you a giant zip file at the end of the month filled with more simple 15x sketches, recolours & full pictures. Of cause the little punters wouldnt be getting that if Skottie didnt have like $100 rewards & most likely doing the drawing as "work" & not a hobby. Anways "engagement" is a hard one to judge & quite individual. Personally i see nothing wrong with your current rewards & art ratio output, but i do understand its also hard to compete with the youngsters constantly pumping out stuff & "selling" it cheap. Then there is the patreons themselves . Even i who have a full time job starts sweating when i put all those little $1-3 donations together and remember the extra 25% tax we have to pay here in scandinavia :D

For me, "seeing" you in "d"A and sitting in on the Thursday Night Streams gives me plenty of interaction. I do this to help support you as you really tick off a LOT of boxes of what I like to see! Or did the (what?) half-dozen or so commissions I've bought from you tell you that? ;D

That's good to hear. While I don't say much here on Patreon, I also don't get any feedback. So, I think this is nice to get an idea where people are coming from. As for water based peril, while I don't have any coming up, you can be sure that I will have more in the future. Thank you.

Thank you for the comment. I'm glad you took the time to let me know how you feel about my work. I will keep up the good work, I have no current plans to change the rewards.
