Horror of horrors!
Added 2024-08-07 13:42:29 +0000 UTCDespite this silly schedule, I do get bits of time to myself throughout the day which allows me to multitask on labors (which, no doubt, will run me into the ground once again, but I cannot help that I am driven with the fiery passion of Aries). I am still working on scripts behind the scenes, including the commissions. Oh, how they have multiplied! I look back fondly at my early days of opening Patreon, when I was actually accepting two commissions per person per month. At first, I could meet that four week deadline. But then, I received more requests. And even more! My 3 notebooks are now a hydra of a beast! I (don't believe) I have overlooked commissions, they just take time to create, either with writing or with editing. I supposed my accursed perfectionism does not help, since I want to make each one its own cinematic experience (blasted perfectionism). Really, I should just blather away into the microphone without any editing or effects and just haphazardly upload them! I jest, of course, because such an ideation simply makes my skin crawl! ><
Someone might ask if I need assistance with any duties regarding the audios. While that is a selfless proposal, I am afraid I cannot accept (at this moment, at least). I am very, VERY stubborn and proud, as you can probably tell. I am my own director, and I know what to expect from myself. I know what I want written, I know my editing programs, and I know how I want the audio to sound. This is a creative process for me, and as an artist, I am terribly possessive with my art (this has always been the case). I have worked on collaborations in the past, and it ended up creating more problems than solutions (it wasn't all on me, rest assured, It was a mutual issue). I just don't want to oversee someone else's efforts, because it's not fair to them, either.
*Inhales like Charlie* And so, darlings, I am opening this thread simply as an updated status for any of you who might believe I have abandoned your commission. You are so very wonderful for putting up with my atrocious pacing! And if at anytime, you want a refund, I would be more than happy to provide one. And even if someone leaves the subscription level, I will still produce their commission, in case they ever return one day.
My coffee is now cold after writing all of this. :(

2024-08-07 18:02:41 +0000 UTCWhat a stubborn, busy little buck you are. It's almost cute. We are more than happy to wait this "atrocious pace" of yours and see the fruits of your labor. You already work hard enough, and we appreciate everything you do. Regarding the possible refunds, I get where you are coming from, but I hope you know that all your work and creations are worth so much more! If it does anything on your end, I'm tempted to increase the amount. Take your time. We can happily wait and entertain ourselves (and occasionally you). Don't stress out, dear Radio.

2024-08-07 17:46:57 +0000 UTC' I am Wisteria Alastor, the Diva of the Digital Waves. For any thinking that I've ridden the coat tails of the esteemed Radio Demon I shall simply say ... you are sorely mistaken. I'm here to change the order, dear friends. I look forward to working with many of you ... and devouring others. ' A beguiling and sinister laugh wafted into the air on that final note, crackling with dissonant yet sweet static. The crimson staff was tossed upward after a skillful twirl and shadows dispersed in a theatrical burst of light and darkness. Silence as still as death descended for a heart beat the the music resumed as if nothing had occurred. Wisteria stepped from coalescing pool of darkness at her father's elbow, returning the mic she had borrowed. She sat herself upon a bar stool and primly crossed her ankles after hooking her toes under the stool wrung. " Was that last part .. wise, kid? " Husk asked, handing her a Moscow Mule in a crystal glass. " Just doing what you do is enough to put a big target on your back. " Wisteria chuckled softly, sipping before giving an answer as Alastor stood by his expression purely unreadable. She could not even deduce what laid behind his smile as she typically could. ' I want the attention, Uncle. The Elders will observe my actions. Those with insecurities will seek to know me and in turn I shall know them. The weak? They will strike out of pure fear and I shall devour them and take their souls for my own. Is that not what Father has taught me? ' Husk's expression clearly said ' Holy Shit ' looking between what was once a darling little girl and the Radio Demon. He sincerely hoped there was no challenge in that explanation, even if he felt Alastor deserved to experience the scope of what he had helped create. Wisteria passed a fresh whiskey and rye towards her father and let herself lean to rest lightly against his shoulder, the demon stiff as stone. ' I do not challenge you, Father. I would never. I merely tread where you refuse. The digital realm allows radio to be experienced beyond its localities. My power, that you so lovingly nurtured, allows me to manipulate that realm's frequencies as no other demon in Hell can. If anything, I wish to Honor you. To be your Legacy. '
