Good morning, I took a long look at what i've been doing this morning and I realize i'm letting you down all of you. Updates are months apart if that and really they aren't as great or as long as I wish they were. There are many excuses I could give but it comes down to this. Please excuse me if I ramble a bit.
When I was little I always knew there would come a time i'd have to care for my mother, she was born without hip sockets and has had 42 hip procedures, of those 11 were hip replacements. She is in amounts of pain daily that I don't know if I could manage. Mom is unable to walk on her own and has to use a walker to transfer either to bed or the toilet. For years my grandfather has been helping us out while I tried to finish school with my own heath problems. That however has ended as I type this out, my grandfather and the man who raised me is in at home hospice dying. If you are my friend on skype you know what a wreck I am about this.
So this is what it comes down to. money, Marc *my husband* Quit his job at walmart so that he is better able to care for my mom but we are taking a pretty spectacular loss in funds due to this. This leaves me two options.
One: Get a full time job, this would give me pretty much no time for writing so i'd have to leave the site as a writer at least temporarily.
Two: You guys pay me to write. This will give me more reason to be on the computer writing these chapters you all seem to love and right now even a few bucks tossed my way will feel like the greatest pay day.
So i've started a pateron here is the link. It will also be posted on my user page as well. I really don't know what else to say. Just thank you for being my readers i'll do better by you for now on I promise.

I can't imagine the hardship you're going through. I can't give much, but I hope every dollar helps. I wish you peace and good luck.

Thank you, anything helps even thoughts and prayers. Thank you.
I wish I could do something than just offer condolences. Normally I'd be making a contribution to your patreon, but I after recent events I just can't afford to do so. Maybe at a later time when my money has recovered.
In the meantime, I wish you good luck.

Thank you so much for your thoughts. I hope your situation improves.
Wow, that's a lot to take in there. I would help by donating money, but, sadly, I do not have any. I really hope that you can get through this really tough time in your life. I know what it's like to go through a really rough time like that. But anyway, I hope things get better for you soon.

Happy thoughts towards me and my family are a wonderful help thank you!

Don't you worry about me. I'll be fine, more so than 90% of the people on this site.
...
Y'know what? Screw it. I'm gonna make a donation. It's not gonna be anything like my usual, but every little bit helps.

Thank you so much, you don't know how much I appreciate this!
I'll try to make a donation. You're an amazing writer, and very much worth the money, but I'm not sure if I'll have the necessary funds. I will send anything I can, though. I wish you and your husband the best of luck through these dark times, as well as your mother.
Stay strong,

You're very welcome. I'm going to post a blog about this. Hopefully, you'll have my followers' support as well.
2664188
Thank you. I can't say anything else but thank you...
I hope you pull through. I really wish I could do more than just give you some words on a screen, but as it turns out I'm broke. If I get some spare money I would donate it. Anyways, I hope you pull through, if there is going to be a Christmas miracle this year it should go in your direction. Until next time,

You have no idea how special words on a screen can make a girl feel special. Thank you so much for your thoughts.

You're very welcome, Foals. Just remember to stay strong.
(Thank you for the follow, by the way. )
While I am unable to donate I would still like to give you and your family my best wishes and say thank you SO much for all the entertainment and joy that you give me and many others with your wonderful stories.

In the same way that artists and bloggers and tumblr users and analysis video creators can be C&Ded?
Well, yes, they could, but it would be frivolous.
Geesh...I really wish that I could help...I can by offering condolences and giving my thoughts, but I can't really help...money-wise. I'm really sorry

When ya ain't got nothing else, losing a job at Walmart is enough.
2664508
Pretty much what 2664535 said. Losing or quitting any job suddenly is going to put a big gaping hole in your money.

I, uh... was making a joke. I think that, most of all, those who are stressed and afraid ought to be the ones who are allowed to laugh.
2664823 Oh, I completely missed it
My bad, dood.
2664823
You're not funny. Don't quit your day job.
2665514
I made that joke while at my day job.

Hmm . . .
Then don't quite it.
Not taking a job even though you need money, so you can write ponyfiction, is a bad decision. I'm not even gonna qualify that. Sorry. Good luck.
