Communication goes a looooooong way.

There are multiple ways to get in touch with me and, on the off chance I'm off in Outerspace (not literally), there are two people who can get ahold of me within minutes if the issue is emergent (not sure how art can be an emergency, but you get the drift). Those two people are  Takom13 and  DreamMerchant - they can also pass me notes from you on a non-emergent basis ;) That said... Please do not jump into a 3rd party's DMs and talk smack about me when you haven't made an attempt to poke me about something. I have been very open about the fact that I have a pretty awful short-term memory and tend to flit around like a bit of a hummingbird from one project to another thanks to ADHD, past traumatic brain injuries, a stroke, and autoimmune issues. Please, if you're feeling shoved aside, communicate. I can't fix what I'm not made aware of. I'm a lot of things, but a mind reader isn't one.

On another point... I do not belong to anyone. I am not your monkey and you are not my organ grinder - I will not dance for you. While I LOVE creating art, supporting artists, and sharing what I've created - I am under Z E R O obligation to post the art I create here or anywhere else. This is not an assault on you or representative of how I feel about you, your character, or the art I've done for you. It's representative of me having other obligations and the time spent uploading things and sourcing keywords etc is often spent on those things (fencing repairs, healthcare, kid stuff). I will catch up and upload your stream sketch or YCH or whatever when/if I get a spare minute. I am trying to be better about uploading art. Please understand that this isn't indicative that I feel some kinda way towards you for any reason. I am looking into other options to maybe have a close friend run a PostyBirb or whatever for me and get stuff up IF they have time.

We're all adults (or at least you better be an adult if you're creeping this page and engaging me in any way), and we need to pull up our panties and act like adults. No one has any idea what someone is truly going through behind the scenes. I've made mention of some of my struggles dealing with my health, horses, truck etc, but the nitty gritty details and additional events are not something I readily share with the general public. You have zero idea what someone's mental health is doing at any given time - so please. Try to remember this before you go making comments and speculations in a 3rd party's inbox.

I love all of you for the support and fellowship you have shown me. Some of you have become my closest and most cherished friends and I look forward to chatting with you each and every time we jump into one another's DMs. It hurts me to think that I have, in some way, failed or left you feeling underappreciated or forgotten. That is the last thing I would EVER want to do.

Always,
C
