Ugh, I need to whine/emote/something, because...UGH.

It looks like I won't be getting art for my [livejournal.com profile] holmes_big_bang because my artist flaked out and didn't bother to tell anyone that she was going on vacation for four weeks A WEEK BEFORE THE ART DEADLINE. The only way I know this is because I sent her an email asking if she had any questions about my story, and when I didn't get response I checked her LJ and saw that her last post was all "Yay, leaving for four weeks tomorrow!" And that was on June 18th. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK. I emailed the mod, who hadn't heard anything from this chick either, but she said she'd try to find a pinch-hitter. But at this point, with posting starting in a few days, I think I'm pretty well fucked.

God, I am SO FUCKING UPSET ABOUT THIS. I have been working so hard on this damn story, and have been looking forward to the art like you wouldn't believe. That's a big part of the whole reason I'm working my ass off to finish in time; there are so many talented artists in this fandom, and it's a privilege to have them illustrate for you. And now, through no fault of my own, I'm getting nothing. I feel so stupid that I'm crying over this, but goddamn it. I deserved at LEAST an email letting me know she was douching out on me. Gah, I could punch something right now.

EDIT: The artist just emailed me to say she's got finished art. ASFK;SDGFD >:(

And this is on top of the huge fight I had last night over aspects of my grieving being "annoying". Yeah. The last twenty-four hours have been awesome.

Oh, honey, you have every right to be upset. It is incredibly rude for someone to sign up to do art and then just fuck off like that. It's not fair to you, and I'm incredibly sorry it happened. :(

A part of me wants to send this chick a really hateful email, but she probably wouldn't read it for a few more weeks, anyway. >:|
