Personal Update
Added 2020-04-30 13:18:58 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
Before I post the monthly pinup tonight, I just wanted to give you a head's up about some bad news in my life. A little less than two weeks ago, I got the news that my grandfather passed away. It wasn't covid, he was very old and died peacefully in his sleep, but covid has meant I can't go home to be with family, and we can't hold a funeral. It's been really hard to accept, grieve and deal with that extra level of isolation all while keeping up with my usual responsibilities.
I'm considering refunding the Fancy Felines for April since I only managed one post for the tier this month. I had a short story planned, and I was going to draw a world map, but I just ran out of time. I'm going to try and get more content out next month, but if I can't I'll just issue refunds. Luckily, the lockdown means I'm not really spending any money on transport or eating out with friends, so I can handle things financially.
I just need time to process things. I really appreciate you all and don't want you to think I take your patronage for granted, so I'm letting you know why I fell down a little this month.
To try and end this on a happier note, I've put together the Discord and just need to tweak it a bit before opening it up to you all!
Thanks so much for your patience and understanding. It's been a rough couple of months, but I'm comforted by the thought that I have so much support to help me through it <3
Cheers,
Demi

It's always rough, just now more than ever with what's going on. I hope when all this is over you have a chance to hold a memorial service, at the very least. Just keep on doing what you can until then, though. 💙

2020-04-30 15:23:26 +0000 UTCI’m sorry to hear the bad news. But I would rather you don’t refund me. I joined (even suggested before you made it) the fancy felines to be a larger giver to you. I love your art and I love being a part of supporting that.

2020-04-30 13:30:56 +0000 UTCYou have my condolences. It's awful that you can't travel home for the funeral, but perhaps you can have a little personal ceremony of remembrance? This pandemic has been hard on all of us. Don't push yourself too hard <3
