Dude. I start mega low. I'll be posting some commission type information soon. If you're really interested, hit me up after the 18th!
And thanks lol! I love doing little sketchy things like this the most. :3

Even low is unfortunately more than I can afford haha. But maybe if I end up having to self publish I can spend whatever I'd spend on stock images to make it myself and you can draw the cover I made.

On hold right now while I work on my story about my mom for a bit. I was burning myself out with the rewrite, getting nowhere on book 3, and just wondering why the hell I'm putting myself through this.

I think I need to take even more breaks on the rewrite then I have been and just not try and do jack on book 3 unless something actually pops in my head. I hate hate hate that I haven't worked on it, by the time I get to it I'll have no fans left :-p

I hate how slow all this is going.

Ahhh. That's probably a good idea. And no way! We'll wait! Think about how long people wait for those Clan of the Cave Bear books. LITERALLY A DECADE. You'll be fine taking a year off. It sounds like you're just burning yourself up now, like you said.
It'll be fine.

I just hate that I'm doing all this work without any kind of gurantee it'll pay off haha. That's the worst part. If I self pub then Freelander better sell otherwise I won't be doing this for Ewah. For people that want to buy it I might do a quick edit and temporary put it up but that's about it if I don't at least break even a bit for whatever I have to put out on Freelander.

We'll see. I haven't written or looked at it in about 2 weeks. The most I did was start the new Ewah cover today.

Well that's a good point, but it's sort of one you have in any creative field, art included. If you do prints, there's less cost time-wise, buy they need to SELL to cover the printing costs. Commissions are more profitable, but first you need to get people to commission you!

Oddly enough, that's a good analogy. Hmm.

You keep up that good work girl Relaaaaaaaaaax. We'll wait for ya!

Not bad at all for such a quick sketch, it has a rather thoughtful almost weary look to it. I'm not sure if that was intended, but it does manage to have feeling so nice work.

Thanks! It's in response to an ask on Tumblr. So it was basically just me going "mmmmm IDK" lol.
