I'll be the first to admit, 2016 hasn't been the best year in my life in or outside of YouTube. Still facing the trials and tribulations, I'm doing what I can to say positive by any means necessary. Unfortunately, after parting ways with a major retail store several months back for the sake of extra free time, it came with a hefty price. Unable to obtain the extra hours I need for my one reminding job, my debt continues to build to the point that it puts a even bigger burden on my physical and mental health.
Of course, I'm not gonna go down easily thought. After all that transpired, I figured since I can't get enough pledges for my Patreon page, I had to do the one thing to get stability with my finances: getting another job. Not too long again, my sister informed me about a job at a fulfillment center for a popular online store (of course I can't mention the name of the company due to legal reasons). While working third shift during the weekend at the fulfillment center, I still have my free time Monday through Friday while I work my evening job at nights. Given my free time during mornings, I can make time working on my content (all except Sunday and Monday mornings when I'm sleeping due to working third shift over the weekend). That being said, my only time to work on any of my upcoming releases are from Monday through Saturday Mornings. Given how busy I'll be during and after the holiday season, the most I can release are two videos (on YouTube and Patreon) a month tops. My main goal is to put out a steady amount of content while working two jobs. If my services are no longer required at my weekend job, I may put out more content rather than two a month, but I'm not making any promises (not at this point at least). Though I am fortunate to be earning a little extra with this new gig, I'm not out the hole yet as far as my debt is concern. I'm just thankful to catch a break, getting help to manage my stress more, and slowly going back to doing the things I used to do, and why mess up a good thing... `;P

I think two a month is just fine, all things considered. I'm gonna aim for similar results...quality over quantity.
