Mainly posting this here for posterity.

So, I'm not doing well mentally or physically. SAD is in full swing (catalyzed by IRL events), and my RSI is acting up again. It's severe enough that it is badly impacting my work.

When it comes to subscription platforms like Subscribestar and Patreon, I'm engaging a break/vacation mode/freeze cycle, whatever you wanna call it for the next month. It'll go until December 20th. During this time, payments and time subscribed will be paused. On Patreon, new users will not be able to sign up (though evidently Patreon is planning to change this to allow for it even when billing is paused), while on Substar, new users may join and will be charged, but their sub time won't count down until after the vacation is over.

Existing users will basically just skip their next payment cycle for both platforms. The archives will still be updated as appropriate, but there won't be a character poll for this month. I still might post some works here and there, but it won't be consistent until I'm fully back.

Sorry things have been so slow this month.
