    I need some help

    So, I'm in a rough place. I've been struggling to get enough money for my rent, but my hours have been butchered. I need at least $200, so I'm opening commissions. $15/1k words. DM me for details.

    If you'd like to help but don't want a commision, you can donate to my Patreon, here: https://www.patreon.com/Shirotora

    I'm in need of money, fast

    I just lost my job. My supervisor basically just straight up lied to get me fired. This has been the third job in a row where a coworker screwed me over. So, I'm trying to get a laptop so I can work from home. The problem is, I have no money. my last paycheck is just enough for my rent, and that's it.

    FiMFiction Tutorials 3: Staying in Character

    How would you react if, in the Avengers, Captain America agreed to bomb a building full of innocent people just to get a few bad guys? How would you feel if Twilight started treating her friends like dirt for no reason? How would you feel if Superman was fighting Zod, not caring about the collateral damage and causing countless deaths?

No more internets, and a Novel update · 6:13pm Nov 2nd, 2015

Well, I lost my internet again. I'm trying to get up enough money to pay it off, but it's hard. As before, I'm still working on my stories (though my block on Nightmare's Dream persists), and I'm not too far from finishing the first chapter to A Wizard's Tale. As my oh so wonderful readers, I'll be posting that in ItB: A Mare's Tale as a sneak peek for you guys. It introduces the main protagonist, Tara (which I found is a Celtic name for 'tower' while searching for a good Celtic name. How perfect is that?) an apprentice mage. The first few chapters will take place in this setting, as well, before she's thrust into the future.

Also, it'll be a rough draft, so don't expect too much from it.

Again, I'll ask if anyone can help, please support my patreon. I'll never paywall, but there are a couple benefits to supporting me.

Do you have a laptop? You could maybe use it in public places? But I know that can be frustrating...

Actually, I now have Decent job... And as fan of your stories. I might be able to get some 5$ monthly for you, or at least some 2$.
I'll when I'll get paid at least.

3517322 That's why it's so perfect :twilightsmile:. I was looking for a good Celtic name, as the character lives in 13th century Europe, off the coast of Ireland. I was looking for either a name started with 'T' that sounded similar, or one that meant 'Twilight'. Instead, I found that Tara is a Celtic name meaning 'tower'. Not only does it tie into Twilight with it being the name of her voice actress, but she lives in a tower.

3516000 I'd appreciate it a lot.

3515965 I do. That's how I posted this blog. Unfortunately, the library is the only place nearby.

Something you may want to look into is a chromebook. It's built entirely around Google's bullshit, but frankly that's all I need a lot of the time because it gets me a direct line to what's in my gDrive. Word of warning, it can't do that much without an internet connection, but there is offline kung fu you can do to make things work. Skype me if you're interested.
