Injured

General
If you follow me on Twitter you’ve probably already heard, but I was in a car crash yesterday. I’m okay, but I have a badly sprained/minor fracture in my ankle and lots of bruises and scrapes everywhere.
My glasses also broke and I cannot find my spare set. Will keep looking and will get new glasses asap, but work will be a bit slow for the next week or two. Thankfully my hands/shoulder etc are fine. Torso is bruised from seatbelt but I can move.
I should still be able to get to everyone’s YCHs and finish the Holiday art I already started, but obviously I need to prioritize healing and resting.

I'm glad to hear you didn't discover any more hidden injuries after your doctor visit. Hope your recovery is quick and the financial difficulties from this aren't too severe.

Please take care of yourself first before any art ;w; just glad you're mostly okay.
Me too <3 I’ll go crazy if I don’t get some work done but definitely going to take it slower
I wish you a speedy recovery! Car accidents are always a hassle on top of being terrible.

May I give just a little unsolicited advice from a friendly soul? Take care of yourself. If you draw, don't worry about drawing for others for a bit. Just doodle for yourself. It'll relieve boredom as you recover and might even help cheer you up. Make Christmas gifts for close friends! Just... take care of you. Outside of financial needs, commissions can wait. You are the most important thing, y'hear?
Yee <3 trying not to over worry about commissions. Gotta relax and recover.

Folks that care about YOU and not just the art will understand and support you. The art doesn't draw itself, you know? (And no, I won't drag the entire AI art tire fire into this). The ones that don't care about you and just want the art, well, let 'em learn some patience. They'll get their art in time. Recovering from the trauma is Job #1.
<33 thank you. can't help but worry a bit being self employed, but yee I need to prioritize resting over all else. i'll heal faster that way too!

I am very happy to hear you got off with minor injuries. Considering the damage WITH a seat belt, I dread to think what would happen otherwise. This is why I always bitch at people to wear their dang belts! Recover quick!
For sure. just las week I was telling my kiddo about how airbags and seatbelts worked and reminding her to always wear hers!
