I kinda realized that the way things are set up for knowing how to see commission status, prices, log, and the personal backlog is pretty needlessly complicated what with being split between two journal entries. So I've decided to condense all the information into one journal entry so hopefully that should make things a little easier for people looking to commission or checking on the status of things.
So here we go. Your one stop shop for all things commission related and the personal backlog!

I'll do pretty much anything, so note me your idea and I'll lay down a verdict. I will not do Yuri, pieces related to Venom, political pieces, and anything that goes against a character's established character or personality (i.e. Bowser trying to destroy the world instead of conquer it).

All finished commissions will be deleted from the log at the end of the month. Any requests that you see on the log were grandfathered in from the old system.

Personal Backlog
Long Forms
- Group HCH - The origin story of Hyvett, Carter, and Hal as well as the story of their friendship and shenanigans with their powers in both their immediate vicinity as well as across the globe and dimensions.
- Friends Among Fish - Based on
's clownfish boy and mandarin boy, this series will explain their origins and friendship together. It's going to be mostly a diving story focusing primarily on the clownfish boy. I've already asked him about this and he's perfectly cool with the idea. - Geo Stelar: Space Explorer - Based on a commission from
that he did for me this month about Geo Stelar being trained to become an astronaut and going out into outer space to explore as much as he can in his own personal rocket and spacesuit. I really hope to get this started soon, and he's given me the green light to use the artwork. - Big Wheel Rider - I'm going to be a little more hush hush about the plot of this one but it's based off a piece that I saw on Pixiv that I really liked. I asked the artist if I could write about it and they said yes but that I couldn't repost the image to DA (obviously). I'll see if I can use it as a thumbnail as that's technically not posting it to DA but we'll see. If you'd like to see it beforehand note me and I'll send you the link to the page. You may need a Pixiv account to see it but you can log in there with Google or Facebook so it should be fine.
B.R.E. Stories
- I apologize for the length of this list. I'm always looking for new projects to do. So when I see something that I like and I think I can come up with a plot for I just can't help myself. And yes I have asked for permission for all of these beforehand.

Commission Process Questions
If anyone is wondering how this new commission process goes, it's actually very simple, and hopefully very fair to everyone. Since there were only a couple of slots available this time, and I guessed (correctly) that demand would outpace supply, I decided to forgo the first come first served model and instead make it merit based. When you submitted an idea to me, I would not reject it (provided that it wasn't on the won't do list) until I had attempted to write a synopsis for it. You could also submit to me several ideas, and I would write a synopsis for each of them. Once everyone interested had submitted their ideas, and they had picked their favorites, I would pick the ones that I felt were the best, and award the slot to that person. I did everything I could to appear unbiased and impartial, and I considered each idea equally, weighing their pros and cons, before ultimately making my decision. This is how I will be handling commissions from now on, and I hope you will all be

February Commissions Open and Announcements
Hi all! How's it going? Time for an MGM Update! To start off, some personal baggage. I just started a new job! That's right! I'm not unemployed anymore (for now). I'm extremely excited about this position. It's a lot better than where I was before, with the only downside in the short term being the commute. It's an hour away from where I live, so in the coming months I'm gonna be looking for places to live closer to my workplace. But for the time being, the ol' Beetle's gonna get herself a workout! Ugh. Good thing she gets (somewhat) decent mileage, but I'm still gonna be filling the tank twice a week. Also I'm broke! Flat out. Completely broke. Unemployment benefits are back to pre-Covid payouts, so my bank account is hemorrhaging money. This job could not have come soon enough because I just barely had enough for the rent yesterday, and that wasn't the only bill that needed paying. Ugh. First paycheck is next Friday, and I still have two weeks I can file for unemployment benefits,
MGM on Patreon and Ko-Fi
Hey y'all! How's it going? Last year, as I'm sure you remember, I launched my Patreon. It did okay, at least until Patreon fired some people on their security team and then the internet freaked out, but I wasn't as invested in it as I should have been. That changes this year. I've revamped the tiers and now am formally relaunching it. There are now only three tiers, and they are not split between SFW and NSFW content anymore. I feel that splitting my content only made things worse, as some patrons missed out on content because I posted to one and not the other that particular day. Link to Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mrgerudoman The tiers are as follows: Page tier: $1/month This is the base tier and grants access to a Discord server and early access to all fics, five days before they are posted to DeviantArt or ArchiveofOurOwn. Squire tier: $5/month This is the mid tier and grants access to all of the contents of Page tier, as well as access to WIPs and a 10% discount on
