For those that don't follow my Facebook, I regret to inform you that my father passed last night. He had several strokes on the rear of his brain last week. The doctors at Wake Med did everything they could for him, but it was all but a foregone conclusion. His wife, Anne, made the decision to disconnect his life support yesterday afternoon and he passed right as my brother and I were pulling into the hospital. We have made our peace, thanked Anne for the 12 years she was with him, and are doing okay, all things considered.
We are still coming to Animazement, but we may have to duck out periodically for reflection and a cry. Until June 1, Kat's Play will be closed for business and I will not take any new commissions until after that date. Thank you all for your understanding, condolences and support.

An annoncement regarding commission pricing
You may have noticed that the prices on my gallery have jumped significantly. This is because I have been charging $100 for every 10 hours (or "per day") of labor and then $15 for each hour after that. I did this to stay competitive with Chinese dealers and my fellow American commissioners.However, I can't keep doing this. I have been agonizing over this dilemma for a year and I've finally come to the decision that I need to raise my prices. So, after my current batch of commissions is done, I'm putting an end to my "per day" ($100/day where 10 hours is a "day") rate and charging a flat $15 for each hour of labor.For example, a 10-hour job...
Wow! Been forever...
I just realized it's been forever since I updated my journal on here.So here's the skinny...- Volunteered for Funimation at AWA for the first time. It was a blast.
- Did my first ever panels at AWA, Nekocon, AUSA, Ichibancon and Katsucon.
- Won my first "best LARPer" award at Ichibancon as Dorothy Wainright from Big O.
- Found out during AWA that my father had a life insurance policy that neither his wife nor my mom could touch. Half of the $38K policy went to pay off my Citibank card and car loan. So now I only have my main credit card to pay down.It's been a strange year since Dad died. But I'm looking forward to making this year an awes...
