Updates about updates and more

June 14, 2023 bugbyte No Comments

Hey all,

I’m a bit late on the last two pages because I’ve been having some health issue flare ups in the past few weeks that have made it tough to accomplish much drawing-wise. I’m doing my best to get back on track, and I’m aiming for next Wednesday for the next Follower update. I apologize for the unexpected break, but that’s how it goes sometimes, I guess.

I am also currently running a small fundraiser for web hosting costs for the year, as I’m not certain that I’m going to make it. This would take Follower and Messenger and generally all of my work offline, which would not be ideal. The past couple of months have been rough for me and I’ve had to dip into my small savings for health and medical related stuff, which hasn’t left me with much, so I’m a little worried about this. If you’re able and want to help out, you can check out my current goal on Ko-Fi. Please don’t feel obligated, especially if it would put you at a financial hardship yourself. But the reality is, this has been a difficult year and I’m struggling to keep this little project together, so I’m being upfront about it.

Thanks so much for reading, and I’ll do my best to have something together for next Wednesday! 💪✨

Chio Club Stickers Are Here!

April 11, 2023 bugbyte No Comments

The Sticker Club stickers have arrived! They’re nice sturdy matte vinyl, so you can stick ’em on basically anything. Get yours (along with extra rewards like early comic pages!) when you join the Chio Club Sticker tier!

The Chio Club Sticker Tier is $12/month (including shipping!) and you’ll get an exclusive unique sticker each month you’re subscribed! You’ll also get other rewards like behind the scenes stuff and early pages!

You can join via Patreon or Ko-Fi at http://chio.club!

This is an experiement still, so if nobody joins, the Sticker Club just won’t continue since it won’t be viable to keep going. The Chio Club directly keeps Follower (and my other comics) going by paying for webhosting, software updates & subscriptions, domain renewals, and more.

I’m really hoping at least a couple of folks join in so I can keep this going! If not, these are going into the proverbial vault until I figure out what else to do with them.

An assortment of updates

January 29, 2023 bugbyte No Comments

Hey hey, it’s been a minute! Here are a few updates that may be of interest to Follower-reading folks!

I’ve been in physical therapy for my hand and joint issues and it’s going well. I’m slowly building up my strength and at my latest appointment the results were measurably improved. I may still be slow putting out new updates for a while as I work on rebuilding my hand strength, but rest assured that I haven’t given up on comics!

I’ve started my return to streaming, mostly as a way to hold me accountable to making pages, but also because it’s fun. I keep my schedule up to date on my Twitch page (http://twitch.tv/radiochio) but I also try to post it everywhere else. Right now I’m aiming for once a week, but as I improve I’ll likely be working more days in where I can.

Related: I have been uploading a backlog of both art and game streams to our Youtube page, so if you’ve missed out on past streams or just want to listen to me ramble for hours on end, I’ve got your back with a bunch of playlists: check out our Youtube channel here! Give us a follow to keep up on whatever new thing we’re working on at the moment.

I don’t have a solid date for a return to Follower updates yet, but I am doing my best to work on it while also not injuring my hand. Chio Club folks have gotten a few peeks at what I’m up to, but I’m working on increasing that output a little bit as I’m able to.

As usual, thanks for your patience, support, and continued readership! This story is far from over, I just have to get my hands working properly again and then I’ll be unstoppable. This could get dangerous.
