Happy second week of August, everyone! Sonya has been busy behind the scenes helping entrants participating in the Fairytale Jam! We are also planning to introduce a new moderator to come help us out, she will make an introduction in the coming week as our new fairy mod!

Other than that, Cybunny is still on break. I am the substitute PR moderator for the meantime!

Featured Article: Brand Toolkit

Here, Sonya shares 6 tips on launching your own crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. These six tips can be used to run any kind of fundraising campaign, it doesn't have to be just Kickstarter:

Visit our blog page to see all the tips for yourself! Click below to read the full post: https://blog.cloudnovel.net/2019/10/03/kickstarter-advice-from-sonya/

Sonya's Twitch Schedule

Hello everyone, last week Sonya couldn't do any streaming (we are so sorry) so this week we are changing things, and attempting with a 1-day streaming schedule. As for whether or not we will be able to go back to a normal 5 day a week streaming schedule, it looks like we are going to stick with 1-2 days streaming per week. Sonya is trying to get back into the rhythm of a normal sleep schedule, so this might be the best schedule moving forward.

You can look at the full schedule here: https://www.twitch.tv/cloudnovel/schedule

Sonya's Development Update

Here is Sonya's official development update for this week:

Hey everyone, this week I cleaned up the database and made minor bug fixes all over the site. Quite a couple of web pages have new or updated titles, so if you check your current browsing tab in your favorite internet browser, a few CloudNovel web pages have brand new page names!

That's all I have for now guys, sorry for skipping streaming all this week, been super busy!

Ciao~

Sonya's Closet Tour

This is our weekly newsletter section showcasing all of Sonya's favorite things from her apartment, new and old. Every week, she will share a few items that she uses in her everyday life, just like a closet or apartment tour!

Gameboy
Ever since she was in middle school, Sonya loved playing games on her pink gameboy. Every Thanksgiving or Christmas, Sonya would ask her mom to buy her the latest gameboy game.
Kitty Mug
Sonya loves her favorite Japanese cartoon cat, she even has a pink mug that she bought all the way from college in Boston University in her freshman year.
White Rabbit Candy
Since Sonya is Chinese, of course she grew up eating this brand of popular Chinese candy called "White Rabbit" a creamy milk candy with melting paper in your mouth.

New Resources of the Week

Wow, talk about another crazy amount of art submissions this week! So many people from our community created so much art this past week, it looks like a museum! These are just 8 of them from this week!

End of newsletter

That concludes the second newsletter of August's news updates, from none other than me, @WineChan! 🍷📰

We hope you guys continue reading our weekly news updates, as we'd like to continue providing new content for all of you guys! Have a good weekend everybody!
