My Future as a Writer...
4 years ago
Well, this is something I've been thinking about for a while, but I've sort of held off on actually discussing it with y'all until I could finish up some stuff.
You might have noticed that I've not been submitting stories for a LONG time now. The last story I uploaded was almost a year ago. Heck, I'd harken a guess that most of my latest watchers don't even care that I do stories.
Honestly, I feel weird as a writer these days. Drawing is a lot easier for me, but I still enjoy the simplicity of writing a story, but life has a way of getting in the way of things. Its hard for me to write stories these days; it takes so much time and effort to simply put words on the paper. It almost hurts. Whenever I get free time, I prefer to just relax or doodle rather than write. And yet, I still want to write. Its a bizarre feeling.
I've mostly been writing commissions. Its actually quite funny in a way; I remember how much I wanted people to commission me when I first began writing, and now commission stories, outweigh my original works. Its funny, but it also makes me sad.
This is just a roundabout way of me saying that I'm going to be stopping Literature commissions for the foreseeable future. They take too long for me to do right now; I'm forcing commissioners to wait ungodly amounts of time for me to complete a single story, the money I make off them isn't really helping me because of that and they prevent me from trying and working on original stories, which I really want to do. I want to write stories about my characters again. Its been too long for them.
So, this is how its going to go; I just finished my last two Literature commissions. One's ready for upload and the second just needs to have the commissioner approve it. After they're both uploaded, I'll be stopping literature commissions for while and I'll be moving to my original stories that I can take my time with.
Will Literature Commissions return in the future?
Maybe? Maybe not. I don't want to say anything concrete because things can change at the drop of a hat.
"I just want a short story commission"
Don't care. Not doing it. Sorry.
Will you still take on Art Commissions?
Yes; Art is a lot easier for me to accommodate because it doesn't take me super long to draw a picture, so if you want an art commission, we can talk business.
I'm sorry, if this decision upsets anyone; I know there are a lot of people who had commissioned stories from me in the past who might be upset by this, but I hope you understand.
If you have any questions on this matter, just comment it or send me a note and I'll respond as best I can.
Regards,
S.V.
