I've had a really rough week so I didn't get all that much done; I'll probably be lot less active than I'd like for the next three months due to family emergencies as well.

I'm going to keep trying to work, but please be patient; I'm having a really hard time. :')

Report Summary:
- commission progress
- adoptable progress
- adoptable sale

Business:
- Sticker sale: Last 2 still available!
- Finished adoptables have been reduced in price:
Cherub (30 USD)
Reindeer (15 USD)
Lemon Meringue Bunny (15 USD),
Champagne Rose Wolpertinger (15 USD)
Toxic Waste Wolpertinger (15 USD)

Additionally, ref sheets for any of the above purchases are 10% off if bought together with the adopt. (For reference, regular ref sheets are 60 USD, so 10% off = 54 USD.)

Goals:
- 31/2000 USD earned for my second art raffle goal. Hopefully this one is met faster than the first, but thank you to everyone who helped out the first time! The prize for the big raffle is a fully lined piece with a complex background and up to seven characters.
- 84/400 for my subscriber goal; I lowered it since I'm making more on commissions lately, and I found a place with more reasonable rent. Please help out!

Raffle Updates:
- Due to the aforementioned issues, the August 1 raffle has been moved to January 15 of 2024. The next few months are going to be pretty tough for me, so I hope to start the new year that way.

Other Writing:
- Wrote a couple paragraphs of Devilfish chapter 2 to relax.

Probably should've bundled this with the earlier update. Whoops.

Added a donation widget to my carrds and removed "Knot A Problem" from BMAC until further notice. Don't worry, it'll be back! I just want to polish it up for art!

I've also priced my "March of Robots" zine 1 USD since BMAC won't let me do a full pay-what-you-want, and put up a download link through google. Please consider donating if you like my work, though!
