I have someone that is spying on his Patreon posts...
Hi everyone
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all the amazing messages of kindness, support and solidarity over the past couple of weeks since I announced I would be significantly reducing the number of uploads on the channel. I'm very humbled by your belief in me and my work.
Right now I'm taking the opportunity to decompress from all the changes. Up to the moment it was decided to close Ipsilon Media I was going 100mph and had just started filming on the Sunday Morning convention rebuttal, fully planning to finish convention season and get up to speed with all the JW Broadcasting rebuttals including August.
From that breakneck momentum I'm now at a standstill! As heartbreaking as it is to be stopping under these circumstances, at the same time my soul is crying out "thank you" that I can just breathe for a while and use this as an opportunity to recenter and figure out what the next chapter looks like.
I've also come off Twitter which has been very much beneficial to my mental health.
I want to reassure you all that your messages of love and support have been heard and are incredibly meaningful. I also fully intend to get back to putting out content on the channel beginning next month at the 1 or 2 per week frequency I mentioned. My plan is to use the extra time to go back to my writing and finally get the Second Edition of The Reluctant Apostate finished (in both English and German) before moving on to adding more books to my body of work. I was a writer before I was a YouTuber, so reconnecting with my passion for writing is a very exciting prospect.
If you have any thoughts or ideas regarding what you would like to see as patrons and YouTube channel members moving forward, please do let me know in the comments. In the meantime thank you SO much for your patient, persistent support. I owe each and every one of you a hug, if hugging is your thing!
