Shit happens... I've got one client where I ended up not being able to get to their project as soon as I said I could and then due to not answering my questions thoroughly as to their requirements things dragged on and on.. i.e. I'd ask 5 questions and 2 would get answered... So both sides to blame as far as I'm concerned..

Got another one where the same beginning happened but then I started to bang stuff out.. asked for a bunch of clarification on some things and 2+ weeks later I'm still waiting for answers so am in limbo. Paid me upfront so not too worried but I really hate owing people stuff...

Another one where the client and I worked on getting everything ironed out ahead of time and I banged his stuff out right away...

People are people and everyone is a fuck up sometimes. At least I can say that I never disappear when there's still work to be done and I always deliver more than asked or paid for.

I should mention that programming is something I do more on the side than as a full time gig but since I've been doing coding for 25+ years my stuff is solid.
