I'm feeling it, both as an artist and a consumer.

As an artist, my con sales have dwindled to mostly nothing, my Etsy sales have been limited to a few cat-related non-fantasy ACEO originals, and the group trunk show I did a few weeks ago was so dismal, they refunded our space rental fees.

As a consumer, I'm stunned by what I'm spending on gas and groceries, I don't pleasure-shop anymore, and I'm ever-so-thankful that I currently have a day job. (And hope with every fiber of my being that my employer stays strong enough to keep this lowly marketing chick gainfully employed.)
