I'm going to put the commission list on hold for an indefinite span of time. Right now I'm pouring extra work into project stuff, and when I do have the time and energy to do images on the side, my inspiration is taking me to things other than what's on my commission plate. The reserve list in all its enormity, will remain intact, and when I revisit commissions (probably in a month or two), I'll resume.

It's a regular cycle when I take commissions, I've noticed. I dig working on them for a while and I do my best with other people's ideas. After a time, the wind just leaves the sails, completely. Then the idea resumes anew later. I'll make another journal post when I resume work on the list, but right now I just don't feel good about trying to skirt my way through a commission list with only a cursory bit of grudging effort, and end up putting out images I'm not happy with. I appreciate everyone's understanding.
