Life & Commission Queue Update: 2024-02-13

Happy New Year!
Wait, what do you mean it’s already February?
At this point, I feel like I should just call these updates my “excuses” for not writing as much as I intended to write. I thank you all immensely for your patience with a critter whose mental health has been all over the damn place.
For once, there is some new news: I’ve switched to using Linux as my main operating system of choice. My Windows install on my laptop had slowed down to a crawl; it felt like I was actively fighting my computer to get it to do two things at a time. Swapping over to Garuda Linux may have been a more experimental leap than I strictly needed to make, but it has definitely gotten the job done. I just haven’t made the time to set up PostyBirb on Linux. I’ll be trying to resolve that today. I’d like to get back into the habit of posting something every Thursday, even if it’s a short and self-indulgent piece.
As for commission work, things are moving slowly, but steadily. I’ve actually made progress on a couple things and reaffirmed that everyone currently in my queue is still interested in keeping their slots. I’m going to try stream on Picarto and/or Piczel at least once this week, hopefully twice. Having people who expect me to be live at a certain time and to be working on stories during that time can be a useful accountability device.
Here’s my current commission queue. Only the first three slots have been paid. As I’ve previously promised, I won’t bill anyone until I’m actually going to start work on their story.
• SilverClaw - 2,000+ words about a growing dragon. Paid. Draft approved, editing needed.
• Typo / Keireer - 3,750 words about Keireer being shrunk and casually bullied by Mala & Chrys. SubscribeStar reward. Outline approved.
• Kistaro - 500 words about vore, science, and the curious intersection of the two. SubscribeStar reward.
• Anonymous - 2,250 words about forced gender transformation and sexual assault. Outline approved.
• Nick - 1,000 words about a catox being cruel to Shira. Outline approved.
• Private - 4,000+ words. Details intentionally omitted.
