SP UPDATE: Slowing Down!! Hiatus Soon!
5 years ago
Hey all!! Just a little update journal from me to you, I'm probably going to be slowing down how many comms I take, and will probably be closing up shop for an indeterminate amount of time soon!!
I'm just becoming WAY TOO BUSY in my life to keep up with a super full queue like I used to!! I can't keep up with the workload at a pace I'm happy with, and I cant give clients the attention y'all need! This is really weird for me, as my motto has always been "my inbox is always open!! feel free to lemme know what you have in mind!" but I just don't have the time and brainspace right now! So i'm trying to transition gracefully from someone who does this on a regular basis to someone who maybe only does it once in a while.
Lastly: I've been doing this pretty regularly as what is essentially my day job for like 5 years! And it's kinda wild to be like "I just dont have time to do it anymore" but that's just where I am in my life rn! I wanna add a small thank you if you've ever gotten a comm from me OR ESPECIALLY are a regular client of mine. I appreciate each and every one of ya!!!!
If you've read this far, thanks for reading, and I hope you have a lovely rest of the year!

SO!
1) I will obviously finish all the work currently in my queue, and if you sent me a note/email about comms and I accepted it rest assured you'll get your owed work as normal!!
2) If you sent me a note recently with a comm idea and it's a little too involved, I might turn you away!
3) By the end of December/start of January I'll be closing comms! I just won't be takin em anymore!
4) I may open them every once in a while on an extremely limited slot basis! You'll just have to keep an eye on journals for when that is.Lastly: I've been doing this pretty regularly as what is essentially my day job for like 5 years!

Sad to hear that things are going this way, but I understand that that's just the course life takes sometimes. I hope you're at least doing well for yourself, whatever it is that's occupying your schedule now. And I'll still do my best to keep an eye out for your occasional openings. Thank you for the update, and I hope you stay well going into next year!
