So, I'd like to take this opportunity to say that I am sorry to all artists and others who I left unanswered and unresponsive for so long. The truth is that I was in a dark period of my life and I was trying to get out of it by spending money I couldn't afford. It became an addiction. I would fall into a depressive mood, and, in an attempt to lift my spirits, I'd find cute YCH's to either bid or commission on. The problem was, that depression got deeper every time I clicked "submit comment" with my bid amount. So on to another auction. Then another. So on and so forth. By the time I had managed to pull myself out of it, I had wiped out 1/3rd of all my college/university tuition savings. That was when I realized I had a problem, one that was being fed by the relative ease of online auctions. So, with a heavy heart, I made the choice to step away from this website. For my own mental health. As well as financial health. I was ashamed of myself. I didn't want anyone to know how bad it had gotten, so I thought it best to just disappear for the time being. That was the wrong thing to do. I should have at least reached out and said that I would be taking a hiatus temporarily. Except I was too scared to. Once more, I'd like to say I'm sorry to everyone who wondered where I had gone and if I was okay. I'm back now, but my problematic spending remains. I hope I can have better control of it this time around. Thank you.

Well. The CanFURence convention 2017 is over. My open mic panel "Luna Eclipse" went as well as I thought. Maybe better.

Told the story of how finally gave in to peer pressure and got the spoof GPS app to use while playing Pokemon Go. The first time I watched her use it, which is still as vivid as the day it happened.

Met a furry from Toronto who was friends with her as well. We hugged.

Now. Something I have not shared with many people. Only a few know this.

I turned 27 the day after was laid to rest. She was taken too soon a week before my birthday.

Not sure if that day will ever hold the meaning of "celebration" again.

So, I have seen plenty of artists who do amazing drawings. I usually cry and say "Why can't I?" Then I came upon a thought: what if I offered commissions of what I am good at. Writing. Specifically, finding people who are curious to see how their drawn characters translate into the spoken word. Since I figured that there'd be at least a few visual artists who have thought about what it'd be like to write their character instead of draw.

Then I gave it more thought and came up with some rough ideas if the breakdown. So, here it is:

Character Sketch: 1-2 pages
-Name
-Coloration (hair, eyes, skin, markings)
- One hobby they like to do
-Setting (basic)

Next, we have:

Day In A Life: 2-3 pages
-Name
-Coloration (hair, eyes, skin, markings)
-Typical day routine
-Setting (detailed)
-Solo/Multiple Characters
*Extra for More than 2 Characters
-SFW/NSFW

Then I drew a blank. If any of you have ideas, suggestions, feedback, I'd greatly appreciate it. Of course, with this, I will be posting a couple of examples so you can get a good idea of what exactly it would entail.

This is still all very rough, and I may end up not even doing it, so. Just leave your thoughts and I'll see what the general reaction is.
