Coffee Shop Closure and Other Bloggish Updates
Hello everyone! Happy Sunday! I hope you guys are having a fantastic day so far!
Updates and whatnot below the cut
Coffee Shop Closure
So, as the title says, I will be officially closing down my Ko-Fi (Coffee Shop). The reasons vary, but the big ones are:
1.) With where my IRL life is right now, I know for fact I won’t have time to take commissions in the near future.
2.) It was fun, but eventually I just didn’t want to do it anymore.
Thank you to everyone who has supported me in the past with commissions. I am truly grateful for them, and now that I’m at a comfortable place in my life, I no longer feel the need to do them. Once again, thank you.
Next up: 2023 Scheduling
So, I’m going back to school in January! *happy dance* The reason I bring this up is because the program in question is fairly long and demanding. I can’t say for certain yet, but there is a fair chance I won’t be able to post at my usual rate of 3 fics a week. My plan is to write/schedule in advance my fics before then, but after that, it’s hard to say.
The alternative is basically this:
At Best: 1-2 Fics a Week until April 2023 (The end of my program)
At Worst: A semi-writing hiatus on my fics until April 2023 (The end of my program)
I’m leaning towards the former, but ultimately it’s going to come down to what goes on once the class starts. I’ll keep you guys updated!
Candy Hearts In 2023
What hasn’t changed however is my plans to do the Candy Hearts Event again in February! I had so much fun doing it last year that I’d like to do it again with you guys! (Just without the treat box thing- that was a confusing mess for all of us). We’ve got new fandoms this time around, so look forward to that! :D
That’s about it! Thank you guys so much for all the kind words and support! I’m forever grateful for you all.

Terzo commission for @ghostchems <3
She said 'sexy Terzo, nothing specific, just whatever your heart desires :)' and my Victorian sensibilities said 'give that man sock garters... and make them visible (≖‿≖)'
Thank you for commissioning me!! :D
#I had a stupid amount of fun drawing this one xD#apparently all my drawings of terzo are just 'normal.. and then you scroll down'#commissions#(still closed)#terzo#papa terzo#papa emeritus iii#the band ghost#my art#my band ghost

wait.... wats that sound
its a FLASH SALE WOAAOOOHH
I'm doing a good ole fashioned commission livestream to try and recuperate my losses after the disastrous convention i just went to
70% off bust portraits like these ones (60 USD instead of 200)
I only have a few slots left, so please email me your refs asap at [email protected] with "Flash sale" in the subject line*
Then, join me on Twitch Thurs/Fri (May 25-26) around 1 pm EST to watch them drawn live! I'll be accepting emails until Friday morning or until all slots are filled, whichever happens first
*(You can get notified of open slots sooner by signing up for my mailing list at the bottom of this page, or by pledging to any tier on patreon for access to the discord)
#buckling down on regular commissions as well and i will probably close them so that i can catch up#anyway come hang out with me in stream

I need this panel in a gorgeous classically-painted-style redraw and I need it now (and possibly with other charas close to kdj at this point in the series but shh)
(Not actually demanding anyone do so but like. You see my vision right?)
#if I had the money I'd probably commission it tbh shfjdjfkdjfi#bc while I CAN do art. not like the style this clearly demands. not even close#wheres that post breaking down rennaissance/baroque/etc idr which this falls under and dont wanna say it wrong#but this Very Obviously falls under one of those exact categories#orv#omniscient reader's viewpoint#kim dokja#yoo sangah#lee hyunsung#shin yoosung#yoo joonghyuk#blablablah

alright, i think i'm going to close drawing requests for now. maybe i'll open them back up at some point but i'm going to keep them closed for now.
#not art#there's two reasons for this#1. artfight is upcoming ofc#and 2. i'm think of offically opening commissions at some point. once i get my own bank account#and yeah i know it sounds like a rip off to go from free requests to paid ones but i think it will be worth it for myself and you guys#and oh yeah this doesn't mean i'm not going to draw the other requests in my inbox rn#i haven't got to them because there's a lot going on in my life rn so there's not as much time to sit down and draw#but i will get to them. trust me. and if i don't then uhhhhhhh i forgor sorry#maybe if i open free requests again. it will be small sketches while my more complete drawings will be paid.#i think that's a good compromise for my bitches with no money but still want a cool drawing#okay i'm rambling but yeah. requests will be closed unil further notice

a few Howltar OC doodles
#howltar#closed species#was thinking of opening commissions in this style#but then i saw that howltars people seriously undercharge themselves#which drives the whole art economy down so badly in the server#it's just gonna hurt people in the long run#but ig it makes sense since most people there are minors and they don't understand these things so i shouldn't be surprised

running around in a circle tugging at my hair and holding back tears: too many things too many things too many things too many things too many thi
#if i could just. focus. for more than 30 seconds at a time#i write one sentence of a fic and then go and check my work emails#but while i'm there i'm like oh wonder if tumblr looks different on the remote desktop internet#it doesn't but i get distracted anyway until i realise and close it down#and then go back to my own desktop to look at tumblr#where i promptly get distracted for minimum ten minutes before i catch sight of the messages i haven't responded to yet#and i type a couple words out and then think oh shit i have messages on discord#so i go there#and get distracted by scrolling through not even new messages#maybe type a few words of a message before i mark it as unread because i'm like#oh i gotta finished writing the next chapter of my thing#and then i'm like hmmm but tempting commission work#and then i go actually i guess if i'm going to take a rbeak i'll do some drawing#so i grab my ipad which is still open on creepshow which i was watching last night#and so i start watching it but i can't focus because there's something else going on#and i realise i'm already watching the simpsons on my phone which explains why i have five different simpsons quotes on repeat in my head#and then i realise that there's a song playing on spotify on my laptop#and amidst those three noises i am also entertaining myself with in my head vocal stims and out loud vocal stims#and my anxiety is like hey... wanna worry about something#AND I JUST WANT TO FOCUS LIKE ONE THING AT A FUCKIN TIME ONE FUCKIN THING#finnie shouts into the void

Are you currently accepting commissions?
biting my nails... im so sorry i believe i had told someone months earlier also id check if it was possible for me to do this but i forgor!! i will try to consult with my sister whos a lawyer if it is truly possible for me to do so tomorrow maybe (long story short its a legal thing where i cant receive pay outside of residency but idk if that extends to freelance work outside of my field).
even then however... work n studying already take so much out of me, i want to at least have time to work on my personal art (specially tss!! i am so mentally ill about tss! it is my babyyy) n also chill when im off the clock that id have to think real hard about taking commissions. i dont really need the extra money atm even then, id just be opening them out of courtesy to ppl who rly do wish to commission me.
all this to say... no im not, but i can check on the possibility of opening them n think on it further. at this moment i likely still wont open them for a while but well see.
i think for now anon you should keep your money n focus on commissioning other incredible artists though!!
#the wh work i did n some extra work for a close friend of mine were very much exceptions#for wh... well cmon i wasnt gonna turn that down no way#n i wasnt technically paid by my friend to do the art they commissioned me#it was me paying them back for buying n shipping a celestial pony to me since fsr amazon wouldnt take my credit card#commander's answers

Gotta write a production report for two songs we recorded and I'm gonna have to do at least a third of it for a group of 6 after having done about half of the recording and editing work for one of these two projects...all that cause I still haven't found an internship so I can't just say : do it without me.
It's a little exhausting. I know they will work if I really push them but they'll do it super late and I'll have to revise it when I get back home from the small concert I've allowed myself to go instead of my portuguese lesson (brazilian artist so it's all good my teacher said, I still feel bad) and I'll have to run around tomorrow morning to print it and I'll assume the cost again.
It's...yeah it's exhausting. And my thesis is so far behind, and I still have no internship. I wanna keep strong but man that diploma is slipping away from me. I'm not even sure I have good enough grades at my exams now !
#yeah ok the anxiety is back#I have meds that are over the counter so like not great stuff but I'll just chug that down and hope it does something#plus I'm super stressed cause some of them are coming to a small party at my place (for once that I'm alone without my brother there)#and I was talkign with one of them (the closer one) about maybe coming out to them and he said yeah if you want :)#but now one of them is bringing his girlfriend and I am noooot doing that but also my place is a very intimate space for me#I so rarely invite people over because of that#I should stop drinking coffee it might be helping#my head is killing me#I'm so close to giving up on my studies all together and reimburse my mom#but I don't want to !! the people that inspire me the people i look up to the people i want to be like fought for it and never gave up#I'm not even sure I'm made for these studies. I have no ambition I just want to make people happy with music but the kind I love doesn't#really require me ? cause it's mostly small concerts with acoustics instruments#maybe I should have gone into idk social work but I'm pretty sure I would be way too anxious for it same reason i can't be a therapist#and the situation at home isn't much better rn#I really need to breath rn or I'm gonna be out of commission for so long that it will be even more stressful to do the reports at midnight#I'm gonna chicken out tonight as well and just stand there and listen and not talk to the artist afterwards and try to use the portuguese#I've learned nooo I'm just gonna default to english or french

Having another Obi-Wan kind of situation with drawing Anakin for the first time, and I imagine I'm only not raving mad about it because I can't get his nose exactly right still. He's got real pretty eyes at least
#alex rambles#don't mind me i just finally took the time to warm up before settling down to work on my commissions#drawing Tem again would have been too close to work so had to try the next thing#got Obi-Wan's space jesus face right on the very first try and that got me unreasonably mad#still does tbh#i get ticked off by the weirdest things#i cant be proud of myself so i get to be mad lmao
