Going full time from February 2016

Hey there folks,

As you probably know, Patreon is being weird again. And it's incorrectly telling some users that I've met another goal. Though that's not quite correct, I'm pleased to say that I'm planning to go full time from February 2016.

Currently (between rent, taxes, utility bills, etc) I'm having to spend about $2254 on monthly living expenses. So this is the rough target to reach in order to keep renting/living where I am at the moment.

Thanks to your generosity, Patreon gives me $1,410 per month, assuming a single video. (and I'm confident I can produce much more than that)

Twitch currently takes in $4.99 for 240 Subscribers, to a total of about $1200. But there's a catch. After the first month of streaming, (having collected more than $100) a 45 day timer starts, after which the streamer is eligible for 50% of the total per month on a recurring basis. So after January 15th, Twitch tells me I'll be receiving about $600 per month. To all the Twitch subscribers, thank you for your kindness!

So this brings the total up to about $2010 from January. And though that's slightly shy of the target, I'm hoping between now and then there will be additional pledges that will push it over the $2254 mark. At which point I'd be able to hand in my notice (4 weeks) and begin working for you all by February if all goes well. 

You will then collectively control my food budget, and I shall slave away making bullshittery videos 24/7. I'm planning on many more episodes of Random Bullshittery, scheduled streams of all kinds, properly planned patreon rewards. And I'll generally be able to commit myself fully to this online lark :)

Thank you for your support and your generosity these last few months. It's genuinely humbling and I'm really excited! It's an absolute dream job and I can't thank you enough for helping to make it happen

Love Womble,
