100 patreons + other news

Though having my very first 100 supporters on Patreon Is no doubt a feat, it's abit difficult to celebrate it as the very nature of Patreon is that some of the 100 supporters are bots and some of which entered fraudulent credit card information. But still, eh, having 3 digits is a first for me! Thank you for the support!
On the other hand, lately I've been contemplating on leaving my main job. I mean it does pay well, but I have to be careful about what I say or do or post online as not only is my company government-based, it is also a family venue. I've been lectured before by my director on my comics and I fathom to think about what he would say about Toastwire. In addition my boss is hard to deal with and the nature of the job had me staying late nights and having bouts of stress to keep up to my CEO's expectations.
I've thought about the funny possibility if making Toastwire my bread n butter job. Currently waiting for my very first customized jockstrap, I've been entertaining the idea of selling my very own line of sexy underwear and clothing, in addition to my illustrations at conventions and opening up commissions once again. It's the idea of going all out. But it being still in the early stages of experimentation, it's not viable enough to serve as a solid plan b to me.
When the day comes. I would think about it.
And I'm grateful for Patreon n you guys. Because the money as it is now would be able to cover up rental should I chose to relocate to Taiwan. (My lovelife is very inactive n I'm tired of trying in Singapore, I might have a chance in Taiwan. To get a Taiwanese Boyfriend). If not rental, then it's good enough to cover for a month of food to keep me alive.
More updates to come!

There really is no right or wrong answer to it I'm sure that I'm with all your other (real non-bot) Patreons in wishing you the best in whatever route you choose to take.
