How the Sausage is Made

Added 2016-02-18 17:44:42 +0000 UTC

During an errand-run yesterday, performing your average everyday royal duties, your Chancellor was caught waiting for a regal fax machine to get its gears together. Instead of allowing the cold-hearted mistress of boredom lay siege to my brain, I did what any sane man would do & picked up a book from the store to stare at while I waited.

Well, after staring at the book for a good few minutes or so, I made a potentially world-changing discovery.

There are words in books. Everywhere.

Anywho, this book in particular, Show Your Work! by Austin Kleon touched on topics involving the un-killable love I have for my precious civvies.

It talks about ways to connect, expand, promote, teach, learn... And all the while reading this, it got my cranium gears turning.

By keeping the process stuff exclusive to Patrons, I feel like I'm withholding info that could not only grant me connections with my darling readers, but potentially help other amateurs like myself. Needless to say, after ingesting only a few chapters before being forced to put it down, I'm inspired to share the process of my art instead of only supplying the finished products.

So, I'm redressing my Patreon rewards and bringing those goodies to Deviantart for public use. My Patreon instead, will be a place anyone can chip a dime in if they so feel like helping a self-employed Chancellor, with the reward of knowing their money is being turned into food for my organs.

To current Patrons- If you're still up for contributing to a part of my paycheck, great! If not, now that most rewards are public, I totes understand!

Thanks for lending your eyeballs to me!

That's all I had!
