Yeaaaahhhh SodiePawp, what DID happen?
Well, the TL;DR of it is that I've been on a crippling art block lately. Like, all month just about, and it's only recently cleared up.
The slightly longer version of it is that I've been kinda doing that thing again where I wanna be working on the personal stuff, but I also know I should be working on what I owe people, and I wind up kinda paralyzed by it. ^^; I've closed down commissions just as silently as I'd opened them, I'm already dealing with enough, but I needed the funds real bad there for a bit.
That was the second half of the month at least. The first half was simply a matter of me working on physical arts that didn't involve drawing or kinks. Mostly clay and fabric. Made a gyroid out of polymer clay and a purse for mom for mother's day. Once I got those done, then came the part mentioned above where I need to get my momentum going for drawing again. But then that paralysis happened. And so now I've been on an art block until just a few days ago where I drew humans for practice and a character of a style I'd never attempted before.
So, what's happening next? Well, I've got two half done, so unless I can finish those up and do two more by the end of May, then I may need to make it the deal for June instead cuz May turned out to be a bad month for art. <X3 I'll try my best, but if I have to extend this to June instead, then I will do more than the quota four.
Maybe I'm worrying too much about this? Taking something that should be fun and making it too much of an assignment? Maybe. But I do take this a bit more seriously by default. I hate that I seem to have dropped the comic I'd been doing, even though I insist that it'll be done eventually. I don't wanna fail at this too, it's become more personal to me than it was meant to originally. But, I am only one boy. I have weaknesses, and I'll try to do my best when I can. We'll see how things go in the next few days, but if I gotta extend it into June instead, then consider this the early announcement. ='P

Naw, don’t even worry bout it! We love it when you make art and if you don’t, no big deal! There are tons of orher Sources (granted less good But that’s my opinion) of tickle art out there! We would rather have a slow trickle of art, then you Bankrupting yourself and Becoming miserable.
Sodie, we love your art so much, we are willing to live without it. Because the artist who made it Deserves to be happy.
(I just woke up And I get weirdly emotional when I’m tired...still, don’t worry ya Jackelope! We’re happy with whatever you do!)

Its alright! I think you had to delay one of the other things before too? Its not that big a deal. I dont think anyone here actually expects to get art of your highest quality within just a month when you have so many other Life things going on at once. Its understandable and you shouldn't worry about it. Although I will say giving everyone a little post like this to tell them why things are delayed is very good, keeps a lot of the impatient people calmed down.
