I want to make Christmas a good time for my family this year, because my mum recently lost the government child subsidy that she used to get, since my youngest sibling turned eighteen.

Hey all. You may know it’s been rough the past few months. It still is. One way it’s rough is that my family is bleeding money as we try to get a handle on all of my child’s emergent needs. American health care system–yay! (not really yay).
I am starting to sell clothes and shoes and miscellaneous stuff we can live without. I have some old jewelry to take to the We Buy Gold place. The 21st century crowdfunding, please-give-me-money-for-nothing culture is not something I can get used to, so I will offer what I can, which is stories. My current energy level and time constraints dictate that I should not commit to a million things, so here’s what I have to offer:
$75 will get you a story of 3k – 5k words, using yr prompt, written ASAP. This will mean putting aside work on my current daily writing project (also my NaNoWriMo project for 2018), the sequel to Boyfriend Material. So here’s a thing you might like to do instead: $75 would sponsor two chapters of that project. Same amount of work from me, just less specifically tailored to you, and comes with my gratitude for passive income on work I’m doing anyway. Message me to discuss yr commission/get my paypal email address.
It helps me out if you buy At Night in the Floating World (the eBook actually pays me more commission, but paperback sales are awesome, too), or the paperback collection (including a story never published on the AO3) of Dawn Before the Rest of the World.
I hate to have to ask for help again, but my precious boy is sick and needs to see the vet for a series of tests to see if the medication and special diet he’s been put on to help him is working or not. Any and all help, whether sharing or financial, is appreciated.
For those on twitter, I have a pinned post if you would be kind enough to share, that would be appreciated.
Thank you all for taking the time to read this,

Evening folks The last test results from the last round of testing just came back, while the first three were good/neutral, the fourth test was bad. So there will be another medication added to his diet.
As such, I will be adjusting the total to add the new meds and the testing needed to make sure that it is working.
Please continue to share. Thank you to everyone who has helped in some manner. Jaimi
I’m back on a bunch of rounds of doctor’s appointments in the next few weeks, this time about my sleep apnea and other breathing problems. Which means I have to put out my little tin cup, to get help with transportation.
I you could donate a few bucks to my Ko-Fi fund, it would be an enormous help. If you can’t spare anything financially, it would also help if you reblogged this to share it around.
I will be posting a wide range of tutorials, recipes, patterns, art, and more. Becoming a 1$ patron will give you access to everything I post before it goes public elsewhere, as well as entries into any raffles or giveaways I will do. Higher tiers have more fun rewards.
This page has been in my head for years, before Patreon was ever a thing. So, if you’re feeling generous, consider pledging a buck or more, to join me on my crafty journey!
Just two more days to sign up for the $15 tier at my Patreon to get the September monthly mailer! The $15 tier is a subscription club where you get a package filled with my art, always valued at more than $15.
