Wanted to make a post for my current commissioners specifically.
New contact email: arphcomm@gmail.com
Other still works, but I'll be replying with the above address.
I am no longer taking new commissions so things should run a little smoother from here until the completion of each of your pieces.
Seeking volunteers for refund: I cannot tell how each of you feel about the possibility of a refund, even if the max wait time hasn't come up yet, but I do plan on making a push of print sales on Furbid to collect money specifically intended for refunding those who are okay with it. I'll be emailing offers for refunds first to those who've waited the longest and go down the list from there. Also, if I'm in the middle of your image progress-wise and I offer you a refund, it would be a full refund and I'd be more than happy to send you what I've already done on it. There's many ways we could arrange things, but for the moment I'm going to take it slow on this refunding thing, collecting the means first and foremost. In the meantime, I wished to put this possible option out in the open so you'll have time to think about it. If you think you'd be open to volunteering for early an early refund, email me at the address above and let me know. Likewise, if you wish to continue to have faith in my want to complete the entire list, feel free to email me as well. I certainly wouldn't mind where everyone stands on this idea.
Long story short, the story I'm writing is pulling at me severly. Also, I have found the stresses over oweing people to weigh heavily on me. Pretty much all of my commissioners have been marvelously patient and it makes me feel pretty bad to know some have waited as long as they have. This is why I'm doing this. As much as it takes a hit at my ego I just feel its the right thing to do. It wasn't an easy decision. I do not like letting people down, but its give this option or feel worse for not giving it when I feel I may have the method in which to make such an offer.
I hope this message is recieved well and again, thank you so much for your ongoing patience with me.
