sorry guys, not doing the new project
short story: ive been working on translation like a part-time job for months, and multiple hours a day as of my semester ending cuz i thought itd be worth it for my Japanese/an allowance, and while that was true earlier on, at this point it's getting minimal and negative return on those fronts respectively
my current projects will continue as-is as their time investment is much smaller
im only announcing this cuz I kinda promised it. im super grateful for all the support. i just cant validate spending $20 on new raws and then 300-400 hours or directing the project when i got $0/minimal japanese from my $9/50 hour investment (tonari)
if you followed me for info on the new project, feel free to unfollow.
this isn't trying to extort donations from anyone, as even if I got a $30 donation right now (which would cover both tonari and the future project's raws) I would still not pursue this new project
thank you all for all your support. I really do love translating, the series I translate, and the positive feedback. ill be working on other creative ventures ive been wanting to work on as my main timesink now
