It never rains but it pours…

I’d taken a bit of a break from commercial commissions this past week or two to get some originals done, since James now has a solid freelance gig, and I’m no longer the sole breadwinner. I was assuming that once I got back into it, it would still take an additional few weeks to get the commercial stuff flowing again.

But no. Instead, in two days, I suddenly get hit for four covers, two due in two weeks, and one in three weeks. The heart quails. (Admittedly, three were from the same company, but still! I’m glad they liked my first cover–the Yakuza tattoo one–enough to commission more, but I didn’t expect quite so many all at once. Not that I’m complaining…)

Even this, however, cannot stop the march of cute to come!
