This is going to be very difficult for me to say, difficult enough that it took me three days to finally do this because of how guilty I feel.

I hate to be a disappointment, you all know I do, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to close down ragdoll production for good this time if not take a very long hiatus. It took some time and some help through my friends' eyes that, between both my mental and physical health as of late, I'm unable to keep up with requests like I used to over a year ago, which should have been more apparent to me considering how much I've struggled throughout 2017. I couldn't stay true to my word in the last announcement because of a chronic pain that incapacitates me by restricting my movements and breathing for several hours or days (three days in this case), and soon after I fell into a depressive slump and went missing for about two weeks, which I apologize again to those I made worry during that time. I want to try to complete all of the current requests, but I honestly can't promise when they'll be finished.

In the meantime I want to announce that I will be accepting requests with payment, and the only reason why is because I'm losing more money than I can make between rent and bills. I'm still working out the details with help from a friend, but the cost for one ragdoll will be 5 USD at the very least and the price may go up a little due to complexity. Whether these new commissions will stay here, move to my profile, or a new group entirely is something I'm still figuring out, but if anyone is interested I'll be sure to keep you posted.

Until then, I want to thank you all very much for the support throughout the past couple years. This has really been a hell of a ride. I hope this year treats you well.
