An apology/note to commissioners/etc.
14 years ago
Hey guys.. for those of you that I owe anything, I apologize for the lack of contact I have been giving you all. I struggle pretty heavily with organizational issues, and the more I owe the more stressed out I get about it.. so sometimes I kind of hide in fear until I get the guts up to face what's going on. I have not forgotten about any of you.
For voucher commissions at ESG, I had a problem at the con (my own fault completely) and I havn't yet been able to redeem the vouchers for money. This has put a temporary kink in the situation.
I plan to make an owed commissions spreadsheet here today and post it once it's finished.
Also, if you need to contact me regarding something I owe you, please email me instead of noting with "commission" in the title of the email so it doesn't just get lost in everything.
Anyway, I havn't been doing a good job keeping in touch and I am really sorry for that. I will, once again, be doing my best to clean up my act.

Also, I know hw it is to be behind... GOOD LUCK!!
I profoundly sympathise. I bet I know what you're feeling -- a sense that your obligations have become a huge scary beast lurking just behind you, and you can't even look at it because it might make eye contact with you with its murderous glare of guilt and fear. You know that if you pick up a stick and just start whaling on it, it'll turn out not to be fearsome at all. But first you have to overwhelm its nightmare charisma...
My therapist and I discuss the beast regularly, usually in the context of some important and expensive obligation of mine. She talks about "building up muscle" to face these ominous tasks. But, as with a wimp at the gym, the first exercises seem almost insuperable. :-P
