Updates and Info (Changes, New Twitter, Etc!)
4 years ago
Hello all! First time writing a journal here on FA, but now seems as good a time as any.
In shorthand: I graduated from college about a year ago, and job hunting hasn't gone as well as expected. I realized I have work right here where I always have, so I'm putting myself wholeheartedly into this and trying to make it work as a form of income. There's a slightly longer, mushier version of this on my twitter, linked down below.
To do my utmost to make this work, I've made a few tweaks to how I handle things:
- I've been putting out more adopts and YCH, which means I owe you all a big thank you for putting up with the reminders! I really do appreciate it.
- I made a TOS! It's a little short now, but a lot longer and more clear than my, "please don't edit, please don't watermark" blurb at the bottom of most of my commission pages.
- I bumped my flat price commissions up by 5 dollars. That doesn't springboard me from hobby money to a living wage, but I want to make sure that my prices stay level with my art quality, and that's a start.
- I made a brand new shiny Art Twitter! This one will be much more focused than the one I've had listed on my profile for a while, which was a mix of personal content and art. This new one will have the same YCH, Adopts, and commissions that you see here, just posted on a slightly different schedule. I may also use it to advertise commission openings, depending on how things go.
I think that covers most of the changes I've made. Thank you all, again, for bearing with me as I get things figured out and get my sheepy butt in gear. I've spent the last year frozen up like a deer in the headlights, and in finally deciding what I'm doing with myself, I feel better than I have in a long time.

I hope to get more art from ya in the future too! Financially, things hasn't been very well for me to treat myself but I do miss having my characters drawn by you.
I'd be happy for the opportunity to draw your cuties again! I always love working with ya. I hope things look up for ya soon.
