I hate to address this again, but here we are. Recently, I had someone follow me and start trying to make a comment thread to lead to art commission solicitations, which is mostly (being generous here) a scam going around. I do not allow this and will block immediately. 
          	 I realize a scammer will not care about what I have to say, but if you’re a genuine person trying to drum up business, I have some things to say and I say this with all due respect regardless of who’s reading this. 
          	 1. Because scams are going around, it’s not a good business model to solicit your services.
          	2. Most people in need of an artist for various purposes will search you out. You can create your own accounts and advertise to your heart’s content.
          	3. When artists/writers see comments, they believe someone genuinely wants to discuss their intentions and behind the scenes info about their stories for no other reason but that this person deeply enjoyed the story, NOT as a springboard for a sales pitch. As an author/writer, I love discussing my works deeper and it is deeply frustrating and hurtful when someone pretends to be a fan, just to start a sales pitch I’ve heard ad nauseam. 
          	 4. It is not a compliment to turn a conversation into a sales pitch that is near or outright verbatim from the other sales pitches I’ve gotten. It is an insult to me, especially when I made my own cover art and wrote my own stories.
          	As a side note, Fanfiction is a side hobby for me. Something to keep my skills up and learn the bare basics of being a published author. If I had a desire to turn my fanfics into comics, I would’ve done it. But I had no interest for spending money on fanfiction. I would do that for my own works and I will seek out a team when it comes to it.

Please do not use my Comments or reviews to spam me about commissions. I do my own artwork. Fanfiction is a side hobby that I am not spending money on. If I wanted to do a comic, it would’ve been done already.
          If I ever want commissions for my original works, I will seek you out and contact you. Then, you’ll go through a lengthy interview process.
           I will not do anything but block unsolicited commissions asks.
