emergency commissions (a...gain)

So, my life is kind of falling apart and I am not okay, financially or otherwise. 

My furnace is no longer functional and I am currently living in a house with no heat in the winter, in an area where it routinely gets down to the 10s/20s Fahrenheit at night. I am also attempting to declutter, clean and pack up my childhood home in anticipation of selling it and moving into an apartment in the next few months. I feel so overwhelmed and frustrated. There’s a lot of sudden, horrifying, impossibly scary financial and mental burdens and I’m trying to do everything I can to meet them.

I’ve applied for state assistance for my furnace, but I’m not sure if I’ll be eligible. I have also applied to a charity organization for the furnance issue, though they can only donate so much to each individual who applies. I hope at least one of these options comes through. 

What I am trying to focus on right now is these two burdens: 

$300 apartment holding fee due January 11th to make sure I can get into my new apartment in a few months (Total fee is $500 but I can use $200 left in my savings.)

At least $200 in anticipation of the massive electric bill I’m going to have at the end of the month because of having to use a space heater to warm up one room for long periods of time to keep me and my cat safe while I try to work and/or pack.

So! If you were interesting in commissioning something, now is the perfect time. I love all sorts of prompts for commissions. If there’s a character from a fandom I write for that isn’t on my list, please feel free to hit me up with a commission request, in some cases I may be able to write that character since commissions have less restrictions than regular requests. 

Commissions are open! I have commissions starting at $5 for headcanons and $10 for 500-word fics, or $30 for 2000 word fics, as well as prices & options for something in between or even longer. If you are interested in a commission, please DM me (through the message system, not the inbox, as it’s best for conversations) with info to get started! 

I also have a Ko-Fi if you aren’t interested in a commission and might be able to help out! 

Note: Due to the nature of these life emergencies, please expect a turnaround time for commissions to be at least 1-3 weeks, depending on the length of the commission and complexity. I can provide an estimated finish date once I know more info about your commission. 

Sorry to post about emergency commissions so soon after the last time. I never understood the idea of “When it rains, it pours” in any genuine way until the last few weeks.

Thanks for taking the time to read! \o/

Because some people seem to have forgotten.

TO EVERYONE WHO SEES THIS POST, PLEASE REBLOG IT IMMEDIATELY!!! IT'S EXTREMELY SERIOUS AND VERY IMPORTANT!!!

WARNING!!!!

People, please be careful. There are also people tracking children and people and putting bids on them based on their profile pictures on whatsapp, tracking and kidnapping them. Especially young children, so please be cautious, especially parents who have their children as their profile pictures.

Please pass this on to everyone so that they are aware of the danger. I don’t how it is all around the world but I know it can’t just be here so please please spread the word. Thank you.

List of Things I Wanna Do

♡ Draw more often and ACTUALLY work on improving my drawing skills

♡ Write down story ideas and concepts + make a list of stories I wanna write

♡ Write down a list of content creators to look at for both fun and inspiration

♡ Create my Rewrite vs. Canon posts

♡ Give an official name to my Redesign, Rewrite, & Reimagine series (I was thinking of 'Let's Reimagine'; I got the idea from YouTuber CoziiDraws' Redesigning the Winx Club Fairies S1✨ | Let's Re-write (SPEEDPAINT) video + create a side blog for this series

♡ Organize my Amazon Fire Tablet (ex. removing some apps and adding new ones)

♡ Create some lists & posts (ex. drawing ideas, writing/story ideas, etc)

♡ Create new social media accounts (ex. A03, Wattpad, DeviantArt, YouTube, etc)

PSA to New Tumblr Users

DON'T CENSOR YOUR TAGS. DON'T.

Write out 'Suicide' Write out 'Rape' Write out 'Abuse' & 'Assault' & 'Gore'

If you don't use the real words in your tags? People won't be able to filter those out and stay SAFE.

You need to tag properly to keep everyone safe.

Don't water down warnings just because social media has trained you to water them down.

before you see something and recoil at the price, be it handmade items, services, art, whatever. when you see something and you think, "i wouldnt pay more than $15 for that," you seriously have to ask yourself: if i were offered that same $15, would i make this object? would i spend the time to teach myself this skill to get this done, for $15? would i do this service for that same $15? would that be worth my time and effort?

yeah, that handmade necklace is $140. you might only be willing to pay $40 for that same necklace, but would you make it for $40 if someone asked you to?

you want to pay the babysitter fifteen bucks for the three hours she's watching your child. but would you honestly do that for $15? would you go into a stranger's house and change their baby's diaper and care for its needs, for $15?

you think its ridiculous that this artist is charging $30 for an icon commission. would you spend years catching up to their skill level to make that same drawing, start using your skill to make some extra cash, and then spend three hours on a drawing just to get $15?

would you be willing to work for $5 an hour?

no?

then don't be angry when someone else won't.

you don't have buy the service, it's okay if some things aren't within your budget or comfort zone, and it's also okay if the product isn't worth that much money to you. but do not be angry. be glad, because you know of another person out there who isn't being exploited for their time.

Because some people seem to have forgotten.

My Spring Break Plans: 3/13 - 3/19

Inspired by @gritsandbrits' 9/9 - 9/15 week plans post from 2019

Since I wasn't able to complete most of my plans this past weekend, I figured I'd get to do them this week, especially since I'm off college for spring break. I know I said in the past that I would limit my plans to make things easier for me, but I feel like putting a lot of plans for my spring break as I not only have a lot of fun plans for my spring break, but I also wanna challenge myself to see if I can handle this many plans this time around. Not to mention I did say in a previous week plans post from 3/6 - 3/12 that I would think about tackling some more plans since I have spring break this week. And after some thinking, I decided to give it a try. Only this time, I want to follow through with these plans while also having fun with them at the same time.
