A Plea For Help For A Friend

A good friend of mine (One of the people who inspired me to write in the first place) is going through a very rough patch right now. His name is Kobalstromo, and if you have the means, he could use any help people could send.

Koba has sadly been struggling with writing lately, having no free time at all. He's basically working overtime to make ends meet because of student loans. But when he was writing, he produced some of the most interesting character pieces I've ever read. He's likely most well known for On Wings Of Change, which was an excellent twilicorn fic back when none of us seriously thought twilicorn would be a thing. But I also adored his takes on Trixie and Lyra (Who would have guessed they'd make Vinyl the silent one?) My hope is that he'll get his life settled a bit by taking advantage of some government programs that are designed to keep people from being destitute when they can't make enough to maintain. But that will help him in the future, not so much now.

In any case, he's basically in a spot where he needs around $250 to get by, and he's smart enough to not try to get a payday loan (my older fans will know why I mention that personal hell, thank god (and every single one of you who helped) that I'm out of that cycle.) He is looking into other means to find help, but this community here is one of those possible ways to find it. I know we all have our own lives and problems, and if you can't help, please don't feel like you have to justify that to me or him. But if you wish to, please follow the link to his blog where he posted his paypal information.

Thank you, whether you can help or not, just for reading this. If you missed it, the link to the blog is here , and even well wishes would be appreciated.
