EDIT: All righty! Got some really good questions on this one. Gonna try to post them in chunks of 4 or so, and I want to get to as many of these as possible. Considering the response, I definitely have plans to do more of these in the future, so stay tuned!


Hey gang. Didn't take long to see enough interest in this from the poll to give it an ol' college try.

So OCs are now fielding questions.

Couple of things, though:

I can almost guarantee I won't get to all the questions, primarily if they're too similar to other questions, but I'll certainly do my best to have them answer as many as we can. I will also ignore "questions" that are just bald faced requests. Ex:"What would it look like if [blank] was in stocks getting her feet tickled?"

TO SUBMIT A QUESTION, you can either submit them as a comment to this journal OR you can send a question privately via DA notes. If you send your question via a note, please specify if you wish to remain anonymous.

Hey, gang! Thanks again for all the kind Birthday wishes and the like. =)
I much prefer to do one big blanket "thank you" as like many correctly assume, I'm not a very creative writer so it'd ultimately be a rapid-fire series of "thanks" and other variations of such.

Bit of a status report: I'm ramping up to the finishing stages of the 3 page comic I'm doing to sort of prep myself psychologically to start opening a few commission slots.
Major thanks again for patience in that regard.

I aim to do some streaming each night if I can since it's another way I try to keep myself sane in these unsure times. When I have enough folks in the chat I like to turn the mic on so I can more directly interact with the chat... with about a 30 second delay which is always great.

Anyways, stay tuned for farther updates!

Stream Tonight

So after last night's emotional attempt at bridge burning, I was gonna try for a bit of a stream. A bit of a low key one, since I imagine quite a few of you either work from home or are essential industry folks, but if people can make it in, the better.

I'm gonna aim for about 9:00-9:15 pm tonight. More dicking around, really. STREAM LINK

I'm still a bit away from having hard-fast Commission facts in terms of rates, since I also want to supply material to give a clearer indication of what each category entails.
What I can tell you is that the minimum is going to be in the $30 range for uncolored solid clean lines for a single character no extras. I may offer other deals in the future, but with this easing out of the driveway kind of stuff I'm gonna keep it somewhat free from too many terms/conditions.

Apologies for the suspense, but let's be frank: there's no way working for commissions at my level could be enough to warrant working from home.
I shouldn't even be doing art. I do like, what, a picture every 6-8 months? What right do I have charging money? I'm sorry to those that have and am thankful that they were far more patient than they should have been.

Anyone who has watched a stream knows my workflow and how inefficient it is.
Sure, practice, drilling, study... these are all valuable things that I just apparently don't have the drive to do. If I don't pursue it then I clearly don't care about it. Can't be executive dysfunction. Must be that I just don't care.

My new full time job is going to be begging super markets to hire me because as long as I'm in the house I'm being a fucking useless waste of humanity of no value only here to hurt those who have to work from home.
Hard to see the lie there.

This isn't me 'quitting DA' or anything like that. I'll still probably post stuff in the future. But christ, this is not a good day.

Stream Tonight

Hey gang,
I appreciate everyone's patience in me giving more updates on the commission details, which are still in development. Been a while since I've had a hard-fast price list and even then it always felt contextual, so please bear with me on that.
In the meantime, I'm gonna be streaming a bit tonight to test to see if my set up still functions well enough and to also just hang out with whoever wants to pop in and chat.

Click HERE to go to the streaming page.

I will primarily be using the microphone to communicate, so keep that in mind when ya' pop in.

I'm gonna aim to start the stream at around 8:30pm Central time. Hope ta' see you guys there!
