On Commissions!

(Who wants to make me an “I’m not dead yet” icon) (Or some sweet Good Omens icons) (Or any MCU icons at all, I guess, I’m like 20 years behind on icons)

I LIVE.

Things are both exciting and not, and I’ve had some grand old panicking, and I’ve had a lot of sleep and alcohol, but today I’m here to talk about commissions.

I intend to open up a second round of commissions, all of which will go towards a new laptop and a mobile upgrade. I am finding my old laptop only barely adequate for (a) the work I’m currently doing (the screen is being a weird with spreadsheets etc) and (b) the other activities I’m picking up. For many things I can use my iPad Pro but it’s still a mobile device and I’ve found some definite cases where I need the actual power of a computer. Desktops no longer interest me, I’m a mobile person, so a laptop it is. I don’t need top of the line or SUPER gaming power (I’d like a little, yes, but I’ve also found I much prefer games on console when possible) but I do need something sleeker, quicker, and more stable than what I have, which has aged poorly.

But: I opened commissions in February, and here I am in July, still finishing them up. Is it stupid to open another round? probably I’m actually gonna say no, really, cause I learned a lot about what works for me and what doesn’t, and I’m hoping the next round of comms can be a lot more successful and efficient. So, in the hopes of people still being interested in a commission, here are some things I learned.

I have a draft, right now, I’m working with to consider all of these things together. Thoughts from anyone, commissioners or not, totally welcome!

Basically I’m recognizing a point where I can offer commissions as something different than the other fanfic I will continue and write and post for free, tl;dr, i still need money lol.

Lessons learnt, though, lessons learnt, thinky thoughts, god where is my lottery ticket the eND
