Proem: I have no part time job and I'd like spending cash.

So I've been drawing a lot lately, and I've in return to that have a little list of requests people have from me. Most of them are from BLf, and I still have to do them, and definitely will because my exams are ending!! But that's not what this topic is about.
I'm thinking about doing commissions for people on Twitter, I've got a pretty big following right now, so I'll definitely be able to get some people on the hook. I'm just a little troubled by the fact that I've never done it before.
Does anyone here know how it goes? Has anyone taken commissions before?
Do I have to watch rules/deadlines/etc.

I'm completely blind in this so, help! ｍ（＿　＿；；ｍ

The only time I've ever done something like that is having a stream and doing them for money. It's definitely easier to get people interested when they can watch you do it. They get the finished project and the entertainment of you creating it.

I'd probably die because my art isn't exactly good until it's done. It'd also mean I'd have to draw it on the spot, which is something I want to avoid until it doesn't take me hours for one picture.
I just get really anxious of people judging me.

Not streaming actually gives you more flexibility time wise anyway.

You can't tell me what to do.
Also I'd rather use Twitter but would post my art to Tumblr when I have it. I've got 260 followers and a bunch of connections so I can get a lot of bites from there.
