Beloved Constant Reader,

Nobody cares about Leisure Town except you.

These full-color features are created by a single individual. Each is the result of incalculable structural complication and financial expense. None appears to exist for a very good reason, and they can only continue with your generous pledge of support.

The income generated from banner ads, third-party text links or Leisure Town related “merchandise” is not projected to eclipse more than three or four dollars per month.

In today’s competitive literary and artistic arenas, every penny is a treasure. Without exception, online content providers must get down on their hands and knees, and ask each passing patron for spare change.

The characters in Leisure Town have nowhere to go. They’ll never be immortalized in print or make that leap to the silver screen. They can’t compete with robust, animated entertainment available elsewhere. They lie awake each night staring at the ceiling, afraid of their dwindling bank accounts and afraid of tomorrow.

At the core of their depression is an even harsher reality. Throwing money at a problem doesn’t always fix it. They could receive millions of dollars and still not have the strength to get up off the floor and participate in the world around them. They can’t imagine anyone giving two shits about their stupid opinions, their insignifcant problems, or their life stories.

They hate themselves. They consider suicide at least once or twice a day. At no point do they ever stop wondering if there might be a kind, conscious force at work somewhere at the universe, a god or a goddess like yourself willing to bear witness to their lives.

Thank you all, ever so much, for your time and consideration with regard to these delicate personal matters.

Very Very Sincerely,
