Could you maybe dispute the transaction on Paypal or anything like that?

I put in a dispute today, but because I paid her via installments, only the latest payment is eligible for a dispute. So, I might be able to recoup ~$300 or so, but not everything (and I'm not really optimistic about the $300).
I don't quite understand what happened. It was going so well. She and I were in regular contact, she was showing me sketches, and promising to show more soon...and then she was gone. I waited a month. Nothing. Since I'd invested so much into her and comic, I decided to press the issue and fired off a few e-mails. Nothing. Tried a few more e-mails and notes later on, and gave a final attempt notice. Still, she said nothing. So, with the time I had left to dispute the latest payment down to 1 day, I decided I'd given all the rope I could.
I hope she's alright, and if she'd just given me some indication that something was wrong in RL, I would have been fine with that. But she gave me nothing, and so my benefit of the doubt faded. Sad.
But, that's life. If I don't get any of the money back, then I'll have just learned a painful lesson. That's all there is to it, really.
