Today, with snow and sketches

Sketch Fest is on, NOW: http://www.ellenmilliongraphics.com/sketchfest/sketchfestprompters.php

Clearing snow. Cleared snow yesterday, too.

Baby seems to be going through a growth spurt - we were up this morning at 4 AM. (Wait, this is the second time she's done this on a Sketch Fest night - maybe she knows!)

Dishes now. Laundry then. Sketches after that? And orders and Christmas cards...

Maternity Leave and Disclaimer

I am now on indefinite maternity leave! ETA: See below for updates.


By "leave", I mean I'm shutting down ordering at most of my sites, delegating projects, and automating as much as possible. The amazing customer service that people have come to expect from this one-woman show... is not going to be so amazing, and I'm not going to feel bad about it. I may reply to emails, if you need to cash out your credits, or want to order something I happen to have in stock, or need some kind of project help. I may also not check my email for a week or two at a time, or not have the spoons to deal with your request immediately. I may help one person and not another (this is not a reflection of favoritism, I promise). Basically, I reserve the right to be incredibly flaky.

By "indefinite", I mean I'll be back in business whenever I like - perhaps in May, perhaps in August, maybe in October. Chances are good that I will phase back into things - picking up various projects and catching up on emails as I feel ready for them, taking on more projects gradually as I figure out how to deal with my new life order.

And by "maternity," I mean BABY!

*ahem*

Important Disclaimer

I reserve the right to blog and not be "back". I reserve the right to post photos and not be back. I reserve the right to write and do artwork for myself, and share it, and not be back. I reserve the right to do a sudden madcap programming update and not be back. Appearing in social media, including commenting on posts or 'liking' things does not obligate me to resume my crazy-mad work schedule, answer emails, or conduct business in any fashion. In general, business will resume when I'm ready for it, and I will announce in no uncertain terms when that time is. Don't be fooled by any gushy enthusiasm, rambling, comments, or random blathering, in the meantime.



PS: No, the Guppy is not here yet. I will update this post when she is, never fear.

ETA: Guppy was born Feb 28th, weighing 7 lb 11 oz, 22" long, and is perfect (according to her mother) in every way.
