Buy me a latte? · 12:08am Jul 30th, 2017
Hi there ponyfolk, this post is no joke! Well it's not that serious either, but anyway.
Seriously though, some of you may know that I don't have a patreon, gofundme or something of that nature. So far I've chosen not to do this because I figure there are a lot of artists and creators out there who have such things, many of whom are younger folk, college students, whatnot, who need the money more than me. All the same, the vast majority of the money I make slaving away at my day job goes into bills, food, keeping my car on the road, supporting my significant other's business, and making sure my two adorable fillies have all the good things they need to make them happy.
I only get to keep a very small portion of the money I make for myself. (It's taken me the better part of a year just to save up for Bronycon this year - you better believe I'm gonna have a great time!) You've probably heard the adage many times, but every little bit truly does help, thus, I've set up a small donation button through Ko-fi. They call it 'buy me a coffee', and if you're so inclined, you can use it to send a small, secure donation through Paypal that will go either to buying some supplies for my anachronistic drafting methods (archival ink pens, notebooks, etc), or to make my wings buzz with that latte habit that helps me burn more midnight oil making words happen!
Anyway, please don't feel obligated, but I am as grateful for your gift of support as I am for any time you choose to favor my words with your time! 
The donate button is on my profile!
(Note that my most popular story at the time of this post, rated by heat, was tagged just to spread the word a bit. If you'd like me to talk about it though, here - would you like to see a Gleam or Shine III? Let me know - demand goes a long way!)
Of course!

Oh good, discussion. Total justification for attaching a story to a post like this. Well, as I recall part 2 ended up in the feature box for 3 days. Maybe that should be telling me something!
