Hi folks! You may have noticed I haven't been as consistent with weekly Slightly Damned pages as I used to be. I know I've noticed, and it sucks! My passion for making this comic burns brighter than ever, and I want to make making pages my top priority again!
I probably should have just taken an official chapter break now that we've reached the end of Part 11. (I think.) However, in classic Chu fashion, I believed I could will myself through an inhuman workload... but alas, it was not meant to be. Part 12 of the story is important and somewhat heavy, so I don't want to rush things right before I leave for Megaplex in Orlando, Florida next week!
I've recently announced some changes to my Patreon in order to get more breathing room into my work schedule. You can read the details here, but the short of it is that I'm not able to keep up with the Suggestion Box. I started to feel like it was holding me back from other things that were more important, including but not limited to: updating the lore & art on the Slightly Damned website, making better merchandise, and keeping the weekly update schedule steady. All patron rewards pertaining to Slightly Damned pages will not change, and in fact, stand to benefit from this change as I try to become more consistent again.
This autumn, I have three goals:
- Finish the remaining Suggestion Box sketches and wallpapers for July 2023 and August 2023
- Draw all the bonus content for Slightly Damned Book Three with the cooperation of Kickstarter campaign backers (and hopefully complete the book so it can be printed)
- Get Slightly Damned's weekly page updates back on schedule!
If all goes well, I'll be able to draw a wider variety of things while also giving Slightly Damned its fair share of love in 2024 and beyond.
Thanks for sticking with me for all these years! I'm looking forward to the 20th anniversary next March!
