Not sure if anyone read my last journal, but I've decided to push back opening commissions to allow me more time to work on my backlog.

Regular commissions will be reopening October 3rd at 7 PM CDT

So yesterday was my 36th birthday and that's given me pause to evaluate my life up to this point. I have much to be proud of and some things to be ashamed of, but I'm still fairly young and have a lot of work ahead of me.

Therefore, let's get to the update. First I'd like to let everyone with a commission due from me that I am working hard at getting them out to you. I'm dreadfully stressed out right now and wound up falling a little behind. In order to catch up I'll be postponing commission slots this Friday. This means that I'm going to be drop dead busy for some time.

Since keeping up with the work and the cost of living increasing I've been considering opening a Patreon account to help compensate. Should it be successful It would serve to improve my health and allow me to focus on some personal projects I've been itching to get off the ground. I'd be interested to hear some of your thoughts on this.

As it stands I'm swamped for the rest of the year and I sometimes feel that my heart's going to burst from overexertion. Worth if to see the wonderful comments from all of you.

That about wraps up this update, thank you for reading!

First off, I'm NOT cancelling streams today, so there's that.

Last week my brother-in-law passed away suddenly. This has left my sister, their children, and my mother in a precarious financial and emotional position. They are short nearly two thousand dollars to pay for funeral and burial costs. Unfortunately, do to my own problems and an upcoming move, I am unable to provide any relief to them. That brings me to the content of this journal.

I'm here today to ask if any of you can donate to help see them through this difficult time. Any amount will help, and the closer they can get to the cost the less difficult this will be for them. If you can send even a few dollars to assist, please send to the paypal address below.

Thank you all for your support, and thank you for reading.

Sorry to say, but we're having to cancel the evening stream. After looking at the work load in front of us, it'd be best to make a sacrifice and make sure everything gets done, and done well.

We may reschedule, so keep an eye out for a journal about it!
