On the road and almost back home! Thank you #PAXU and to all the wonderful friends that kept me sane, happy, and excited for working in TTRPG.
So many conversations I've had reinvigorated my love for the hobby and the entertainment focus. I've had a hell of a lot more positives to say then/1

Thank you to everyone who has been sharing.
Currently I’m overdue on my electric bill and looking to be short on rent - in total between the two, about $500.
I have my commissions open, startplaying games and hate to ask for help.
Any help is appreciated.

Unfortunately bills continue to gather & asking for some assistance.
I'm offering up a number of D&D Oneshots up on Startplaying games right now from Monday - Sunday.
All funds are going towards my electric bill and rent.

Here’s another pearl you can take from this weekend.
You need to consume to create.
Take interest in what your peers are creating, to be curious, want your contemporaries to run pace beside you. Consume their work.
