Update #51 - COMMISSIONS CLOSED
3 years ago
Howdy folks, it's been a minute!
The title up there is accurate. Commissions are closed until the list is done. Thank you to everyone who submitted entries for the list! We have a lot of interesting concepts this time around. About half of y'all are new and half are repeat customers. Either way, I'm thankful for your business and hope to do you proud.
In flesh news - school is almost out! Some of you know this already, but my part-time job for most of this year and the previous was working in school. The last week of the semester is coming up, and after that, it'll be nothing but summer and writing work. It's bittersweet - a break from the commute and daily grind will help, certainly, but I'm going to miss the kids I work with. The pandemic has been rough on them, especially those who were already dealing with poor home lives. Here's hoping they make it, yeah?
Summer's also pulling me in a few directions too. I can't say how exactly, but there's something on the wind pulling me between multiple places and people, and even without school taking up my time, I worry I'm stretching myself out too much. Precarious! Or maybe just a lack of direction on my part.
Check next week for last month's ditties. I was delayed by this massive project I'm still putting the finishing touches on. If you're wondering how massive, I'm actually considering putting it on Amazon marketplace as my first novella. I know I know, deep breaths, but it's like - it's really got my attention. Getting a cover and everything for it. Once it goes live, I'll post a teaser here. Don't worry, this isn't the moment where I sell out, the novella will be affordable for anyone who regularly watches my content (~3-5 dollars max), but it's something to experiment with, see if there's like, a market for my weird hyperfixations???
Oh, and something I've floated for my patrons and might as well float here - starting July, how would you guys feel if I hosted a raffle for Patreon subscribers? Anyone already signed up with my channel would have a chance to win a 1.5-3k story slot for the end of the month. All patrons have an equal chance of getting it except Story Corps peeps - who get it anyway. Would y'all be interested in that sort of thing, or is that asking too much? I never know.
With all that, that's how I'm feeling right now. Tell me how your summer's looking and what plans you've got! I'm interested!
