Surgery Time (again!) Here comes a long art break!
Hey everyone! Thank y'all so much for supporting me thus far! I wanted to let everyone know that the time has finally arrived for my arm surgery (ulnar nerve decompression specifically). I'll be at the surgeon's office at 6:30am tomorrow. This surgery is gonna put me out of work for at least a month, possibly more, I won't know exactly how long until after the surgery. That being said, I won't have anything interesting to post on Patreon for a while, so I understand if people want to take a break from their pledges. But otherwise, I'll be completely unable to take commissions or draw anything at all for the duration of my recovery, so any support outside of that is most appreciated! Ways to support me!

Upcoming Surgery Update
Hey everyone, got a little medical update that will very much impact my art. Last year I had both carpal tunnel and ulnar nerve decompression surgery on my drawing arm. Carpal tunnel is all better, but there’s been a complication with my ulnar nerve and I have to get it operated on again. The surgeon didn’t seem completely confident that this operation will fix my pain for good, but at the very least, it should keep it from getting worse. I’m really hoping for the best, I want this pain gone It’s possible that this surgery will have a longer recovery time than the previous instance, and as it is, it’s scheduled to happen right after a trip to visit family. I’ll be unable to draw for a long while starting from about mid July to possibly the end of August or after. My surgery is scheduled for August 3rd, it’s far enough ahead to give me time to finish maybe one or two commission sets, but not much else. I have a good support system in place, so I won’t be in immediate danger from taking
Suggestions for more Patreon benefits?
https://www.patreon.com/deer_head_xiris Hey!! I'm trying to think of other stuff I could add to my patreon tiers that might entice more engagement, but I can't add anything that would require me to create extra art (ex: monthly postcards or something) because I'm aiming to free up my necessary art time in order to crank out more comic pages. Other things I can't quite add yet are private streams as that requires monthly subscriptions which takes away from support money, also I don't know what I would stream there other than comic pages which seems a bit on the spoiler zone. This might all change later on if I have enough monthly support coming in to reasonably cover those costs. Have y'all got any suggestions for things you'd like to see added as benefits? Giving examples from other creators on the platform may also help if you think it applies here!
Other Websites I'm On
People are making a fuss about eclipse and saying they're gonna stop using deviantart so if that's the case for enough of my followers here's other sites I use!

I'm also not a fan of eclipse but I don't think a website changing layout is worth that much upset. Sites change layouts over time, it's just something to adjust to. I hope people stay, but I'm elsewhere if not
