Happy spook month to my Patreons! Es ist beggint! As always, thanks for supporting me and keeping this whole 'art business' alive! Seriously, you guys rock. And I hope October proves to be as productive as I'm aiming for it to be. So let's just jump right into it, shall we?
This is an all production update status, aside from making mention I'll be trying to make some time to watch some Halloween movies with family, and other Halloween activities this month.
So I'm going to lead with this bit because I didn't get a lot of feedback on this idea when in my last post. Mostly cause people seemed to be just so super excited at me being back at it again they didn't notice that part of the post, or perhaps because it was like the last part of it. But I want to bring up merch again. In my last journal, I put out feelers to see just how people felt about me making some sort of sell-able wares, as well as trying to get a feel for what kind of stuff anyone would want to buy. I threw out the idea of scrolls, mouse pads, and even daki covers. In that time, one of my backers did actually reach out and suggest starting with something simple, like stickers, which honestly seemed like the best idea. So, I ask you guys again. If I we're to make stickers of some of my characters, what would you like to see. And if you aren't into stickers, I'm still open to hearing out other merch ideas like “Legally Distinct Not Bellwether” wall scrolls, or a Val Daki or something along those lines. Again, your feedback is super appreciated.
So now onto the next order of business, and one I'm sure you guys are getting kinda eager about, the ask blog. Those of you who have long been wondering when I was going to get back at it, and wanted something a little more concrete than “Mid-October” rejoice! I will start answering asks again on Monday October 18th. So feel free to keep sending me asks as we get closer and closer to that date. Please do not feel obligated or pressured into asking “Sam Hain” asks this year. Honestly I'm so set back from the mess that was the rest of this year, I'm not exactly in the mood for prioritizing Halloween or Christmas themed asks, and that's going to go double for my usual art output. I'm not super in the mood to do a Halloween or Christmas themed pin-up, so don't expect one. This is of course, not to discourage those type of asks, I just mean I'm not locking myself into answering those specifically to be 'in time' for the holidays. Also, for those of you reading this update from the ask blog, you can also send questions for me, the author. They don't necessarily have to be related to AskDawnAndVern. I figured this was a good way to...sort of handle any possible future AMA style stuff, and keep it in one place.
As for my art plans? Well, I'm going to be opening public commissions in a few days so I guess you guys can start DM'ing me now. Furaffinity, DeviantArt, SoFurry, Twitter, if you are interested you can DM me at all of these places if you are interested, although my pricing is listed in Furaffinity, so I'd recommend looking there to gage what you want.

That said, the reason I said “A few days” is because I'll be re-evaluating some of the prices, so they will be subject to change a bit before I make a big announcement that comm's are officially open. I'd also like to state that in an effort to keep things in an order that gives everyone a shot at commissioning me, Patreon member's will have to wait till next month to commission special art. Sorry guys, If I limited it purely to patreon members being first in line, no one else would ever get a commission. Aside from commission work, I'll be trying to squeeze in more art studies and learning new software as best I can. So hopefully we'll see some progress there.
Last but not least, I'm announcing a very special project I have in the works...(I mean, aside from The Family Vulpes Chapters, And the Animal Crossing smut fic that I've been teasing since January.) I'd like to officially announce that I will be working on a comic called 'Savage Love'. Those of you with a keen eye might recognize the name from one of my fics, specifically the title of chapter 27 of my first fic, The Rehabilitation of Dawn Bellwether”, and that should clue you in on the subject of the comic. Basically I'm planning to make a comic of Dawn and Vern's first time directly ripped from that chapter. (With some streamlining to accommodate the format.) I figure it's a good way to get more eyes on the fic, as well as put some more nice Dawn smut content out there for public consumption. Something that doesn't have a domineering/rape theme like...probably the only Dawn comics out there. Needless to say I'm looking forward to working on it, and I hope you all will look forward to reading it.
So that's it, that's all the update I have for you guys for Spooptober. So I'm going to wrap things up by saying like...aside from the Asks, which I'm giving a hard date for, everything else is sort of, in flux. What I'm saying is, don't expect all of this all at once before the month is out. Some of these will be multi-month spanning projects, and I do have health issues that can screw things up. So, I don't want to make any hard time frame commitments.
Thanks for reading, and continuing to support spindly squid boi. Or the Woofloofaa known as Misfit...Yeah, I...er...I'm still work-shopping species names for the wolf/sheep/fox/eldritch creature that is Misfit, even if his race is comprised of two creatures total...Oh yeah, and Happy Halloween/Sam Hain Scare!
