Small Update on Uploads
🕑 Added 2017-10-12 01:28:17 +0000 UTC Hey everyone. Just thought I'd give a small update about the state of the channel. Some of you may be wondering why I haven't been uploading too often lately, and I just figured I'd address this in case anyone's curious.Throughout the summer, I averaged about a video every 1.5-2 weeks and had enough funds to make YouTube one of my primary focuses. But by mid-July or so, I needed a bit of a break. My brain was kind of fried and I was pretty burnt out, and I didn't want to force myself or churn out any videos that might have been sub par. So I worked super hard in late July to get as many scripts done as I could manage, and made the actual videos in early August before taking a few weeks to do nothing except my part-time job and fun leisure stuff.
However, in early September I had to start up school again. Knowing that I'd have to make an adjustment and spend less time making videos once September rolled around, I decided to space out the videos that I had made in mid-summer and release them through late August-September. I figured I'd adjust in time to pick up the slack right at the beginning of October.
Unfortunately, adjusting to school has been a bigger challenge than I thought and I actually needed a longer break than I thought. So that explains the lack of content since my last upload in mid-September. I realize that this can hardly be considered a hiatus given it hasn't even been a month, but I think that I owe it to the people who pay me monthly to explain the slight change.
The fact of the matter is, up until last week, I hadn't written a script since mid-July, and I hadn't written a HxH video since the Kurapika one in June (The Gon/Hisoka video was from remnants of the Gon video script). So it's taken me a while to get used to writing again, but I've learned some new stuff that I think I can implement well in both my video ideas and my editing, and I'm excited to get some videos out again. My next couple are chugging along well and should be out pretty soon.
TL;DR - Thanks for sticking with your patronage despite a bit of a lean last few weeks. I haven't written or edited a video since midsummer, but I've gotten back into the swing of things and I hope to have an upload ready for next week.

Haha. Well thanks a lot, Jon! And no worries if you can’t maintain pledging at your level. You’ve already contributed a ton :)

You know, I've become so busy too that I forgot to comment on this for almost a week xp As long as you don't abandon us like Every Frame a Painting I'll be happy (though tbh I'm not sure how long I can keep the patronage at this level :< ). But this is how I feel when you haven't uploaded in a month: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fuI4LqiTdY" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fuI4LqiTdY</a>

Hang in there man. I'm sure most of your fans would agree, it would be better for you to be rested when making new content. We all got lives out out there and I know how it is, so I appreciate how hard you work on the channel. On that account, I can't wait to see your next video. :D
