Mistakes made, lessons learned
a month ago
Well then, Apologies for the long silence. I never get much engagement with journals but I ask that if you have even a passing interest in my stuff that you have a quick read of this.
So, I made the classic new commission artist mistake by taking on too many commissions at once, over half of which were comic commissions and those comics were not small... This resulted in a few clients being rightfully unhappy with the long wait and me getting burnt out on multiple occasions, so needless to say, lesson learned. As a result, I am not going to offer comic commissions for the time being. Instead I will limit my slots to around 3 per batch of which will be singular pictures, maybe small sequences no longer than 3 images at most.
For those of you still waiting for me to get to you, thank you for your patience, seriously! I am still fully intending on upholding my queue. I just need to knock out some of the bigger ones first.
I am also intending on giving YCH’s a go in the future, most likely focusing on the themes of possession, body control, hypno and swapping as that’s where my interests lie, and honestly, who wants to wait for October to get some saucy possession art >:3
I’m still working through my backlog of commissions but the big ones are almost out of the way now so here’s hoping that I can get some consistency going again in the following few weeks.
And for all those asking me where the next page of Ghost in the Works is, I hear you, I want to make the next page just as much as you want to see it. Give me some time and be patient, I don’t want to paywall my comics but given that I make no money from it, it’s hard to justify working on it and releasing it for free, so I may move to a 2 week early access SubscribeStar (Because Patreon doesn't allow Hypno/Possession themed content anymore) among other benefits. I’m not really sure yet and am open to ideas so feel free to leave a comment.
Cheers
Adaa~

Good! Artists so often overwork themselves, and I know why, but it's unfortunate things - I hope any unhappy clients understand your situation.
