Hiatus announcement + CH12 SNEAK PEEK!

Hey folks! TLDR:

Castoff resumes updates on the website on January 5th!

Patreon supporters have already started chapter 12...

But, you can read the first page of chapter 12, for free, in my new YouTube video. Go check it out! :>

(Also subscribe to my YouTube channel if you haven't already plz, I make a lot of videos and a lot of them are about comics. And I do livestreams over there too. WINK)

Enjoy, my lovelies~ (Also remember you can join the Discord if you wanna get updates and chat with the community!)


And now, the longer version with more details:

The video that goes up today is one I've had in the works for a few months- a breakdown of every step of my comic-making process. And since I wanted to use a page from Castoff to do it, I ended up recording the entire process of page 1 of chapter 12 and using that for the video!

But, since I knew the video would go up today, I wanted to make sure Patreon folks saw it first. So I posted it for them last week. And then I ended up saying "Yeah, sure I don't have a buffer built up yet, but if I drop down to 1 page per week for the first few weeks, I'll have time to build my buffer up during the rest of the month and then I can increase speed once I'm comfy". So I'm doing that.

Right now, Patrons are getting new pages every Friday. They have the first page of chapter 12 and the title page already, page 3 will be posted on the 15th, page 4 the 22nd, etc etc. My goal is to spend December doing 1 page per week, then start giving patrons 2 pages per week at the start of January.

This 1/week update pattern will also affect the main site updates once they start happening- same as Patreon. 1 update a week for the first few weeks, then going back to 2x/week updates once Patreon is sufficiently ahead. (Early February, if my math is right.)

This is the best option for me to pace myself and resume updates on the comic asap without burning myself out during an already busy month. I honestly SHOULD have let the hiatus go on for longer to I could fully recover from the Kickstarter nonsense, but... I'm really excited for chapter 12, you guys. It's gonna be a big'un. :3c

Anyway! Gonna be radio silence here until the 5th. Have a happy rest of December, don't go too crazy down in the comments, and I'll see you guys in the new year!
