Final Apartment Update and Donation Info: I am OFFICIALLY moved in! · 9:02am Feb 1st, 2018
That's right, guys! After working an eight hour shift at my overnight job, I went straight back home and packed up the last of my things before the movers arrived. They showed up around 8:30 am, and my crappy one-bedroom apartment was completely emptied out before 11. I just gotta say, it's so surreal to see so much of my stuff emptied out of the place, and it ended up looking smaller somehow. Of course, since it was where I've been living for the past four and a half years, it was really weird to know that's no longer my place of residence anymore. It was my very first place of me own, and it was my legal residence through so many aspects of my life.
I lived there when I was finishing up college. I lived there when I first met Stormy on Fimfiction and began to chat with him. It became my only convenient residence after dealing with some major betrayal from someone who used to be family, who I completely cut ties with just over a year ago. And until my unjust eviction notice, it was the first place me and my boyfriend lived together.
But anyway, after a couple more hours of getting everything from my old apartment to my new one, Stormy and I are happily in a brand new, TWO-room apartment in a much better side of town! Not only is it closer to my work, but it's also close to so many businesses within walking distance too! Although, given how chubby both of us are, I'm not sure if it's a blessing or a curse that a Wendy's AND a Godfather's Pizza are literally less than five minutes away on foot.
And like I said before, none of this would've been possible if it wasn't for people as amazing and generous as you guys. I've gotten assistance from other sources (extra hours at work, a loan from my Dad, etc.), but you guys went above and beyond to help give me commissions and keep any financial burdens fairly minimal. I still ended up spending a TON of cash to get everything situated, as well as keeping my bills afloat, but there's a good chance I would've been in the red if I never asked for your guys' help. And because of that, you all have my deepest thanks. You all are like a second family to me, and I promise to stay dedicated to my writing no matter what.
Now then! Since I got that taken care of, I wanted to give an idea for what I was wanting to try for February. I have several different ideas for a new story I could do to show my gratitude. However, I also need more money for upcoming expenses. Seriously, I don't get my next paycheck for another two weeks, I have some big things I need to pay off before then (internet bill, utility bill, car insurance, taxes, etc.), and I currently only have $114 in my bank account.
So for this month, I'm going to put up an official poll on this site showing at least five different NSFW stories. But instead of just having the choices be listed in a poll or by comments, I wanted to list the stories, and add my paypal link for people to donate and submit their choice. And whichever gets the most votes would win!
Now, if anyone has any thoughts or issues with this, please let me know in the comments below. I might be in a new apartment, but I'm still in a bit of a bind financially. But if you all are alright with the idea, I'll out up the donation poll tomorrow when everyone is most likely awake. But until then, just know that I love you all, and I promise to give you guys something worth reading.
This sounds like a great idea. It’s great to here that your both moved in and safe
I started reading your stuff when You were writing Brushed Away, and to this day, Troy and Canvas are my favorite couple of all time. I absolutely love your spike stuff, and if I wasn't in a slight financial situation meself, I'd donate to you in a heartbeat. Keep on writing man, I love ya.
Sounds like an awesome idea, man. Hope you and your boyfriend are happy in your new home!
I'm so happy for you, man.
Congrats on getting moved in.
Yeah it is isn't it. I remember when I moved for college, my entire life fit in my parents car.
I really wish I could help out financially but i'm in college and money is kinda tight right now.
