It is that time of the month again: video posting day! (Yay, cheering sounds heard, woooo!)
I think that sometimes we are just so excited to get started on a new project, that we end up skipping over the all important mock-up stage. (I have certainly done just that a time or tw...
Hello to several new patrons this week! This week's video is a little more 'on brand', I hope you all enjoy!
2019-02-07 17:18:30 +0000 UTC View PostHello to my beloved patrons! I have been taking a look at my goals, tiers, rewards, and overall Patreon page, and I am realizing that I wrote a lot of this when I was still primarily writing blog posts, and mostly needing help with website fees and photography equipment. As I have gotten...
