Soul on Fire and Financial Problems. · 5:34am Sep 25th, 2014
So here's the deal I'm officially cancelling my story The Speechless Spartan.
....
Just kidding (I can almost feel the dagger you all wish to stab me in the chest with for that little joke)
The story is well and alive but this post isnt about the story. Its more or less about things that might prevent me from writing it like for example the financial hit that I'm about to take which will be leaving me somewhat dead inside (I'm a cheap bastard at heart which means this will be like someone playing banjo with my nervous).
My friend got left behind by his roommate on a 12 month lease 2 bedroom apartment that costs 1200 dollars and he cant afforded so I will be leaving my apartment and going to live with him. To finish my lease I need to pay a total of 885 dollars wish will be handle by me and my parents. Now being a college student without a job and government financial aid you can already imagine my blood pressure slowly rising as I too imagine this.
Now some of you may read this in the forums before or maybe not but until a few weeks ago I was trying to make some quick money doing cheap commission deals to buy a new tablet. Thankfully it was successful enough for me to buy the replacement parts need to fix my old tablet wish means I'm back in business. At that moment I though "Gee for the first time I have save up enough as well as have enough stashed money away that I might be able to buy myself some nice things like meat for the fridge. Maybe even go crazy this next October in which I turn 21." well life decided to whack me in the head for having aspirations for more and now the game has changed. I need to save up to 435 dollars by November which means (my cheap commission deal will have to be extended and hopefully people will want some special commissions made for them) that I'll be working here and there to make ends meet. I will be giving you your TSS chapter like usual but it might be smaller.
Im am not obligated to vacate my apartment and go live with my friend, but I will not stand by and witness how my friend suffers through this while I can do something to help him.
Anyways this blog post was more or less to vent, promote my cheap commission deal, and give you guys a heads up about the TSS chapters to come.
I'll see what I can do about commiioning something, but I can't promise anything.
What's happening with 1337 then?
2481904 1337 is still there, though Im sad I cant give it as much attention as Id like. Maybe in the future I might ask around if someone is willing to take over it.
It's wonderful when friends can help out like that. Good on you. Hopefully you'll hit some financial breaks soon. I would say good luck but we make our own. Keep up the good work!
