This seems to need to be said, so here we go. As a reminder... I have a life outside of art. I have an autistic child who I care for every single day, especially now that she is schooled from home. I personally have anxiety and depression that I deal with that often times saps the hell out of my energy. I work as quickly as I can, however, sometimes I do get backlogged. I also do sometimes read notes and have to get back to them when I have a bit more time to sit down and actually write a response. Because yes it takes less time to read a note than it does to look at refs, look at the base, see if the character fits, find an appropriate price point for the complexity of the character, and respond back. I am sick and tired of people being nasty for absolutely no reason. I have been entirely transparent about my life. Sometimes I am quick as lightning because someone else is watching my daughter, my queue is cleared up, my muse is high, etc. Other times it may take a week for you to get your piece. I always try to be kind. I always try to be open. I always try to make sure everyone is happy.

You do not have a right to be nasty to me. Least of all when you have not even paid me! From now on I am just blacklisting people. I am done. I will not deal with people being nasty to me anymore. Period. If you decide to be nasty and rude, I will block you. Nobody, I repeat nobody, deserves to be treated the way I have been treated lately and it only seems to be getting worse not better.

As a side note... to those of you who have always been and continue to be pleasant and supportive. I love you. Thank you for being the way that you are. If it were not for the kind people who always have something nice to say, who always seem to be there to support me, and who always reach out with positivity then I would not be here anymore. So THANK YOU.
