Short on Money for Living

Hey, Knight Shadow here. I haven't done this here before, mostly because I don't really feel right charging the wonderful community of the MLP Fandom, the Bronies and Pegasister, as well as any in between, for my work. However... I have fallen on hard time. So here we go, a little sob story to start us off, all 100% legitimate, I assure you.

As of the end of last year, I can officially, with 100% accuracy state... there is NOTHING on the other side after death. That's right everypony/creature. At the end of last year, due to issues concerning my weight and overall health, I died. I was dead for approximately 2 hours. But Knight, I can almost hear some of you saying, if you died, how are you still here? That sounds awfully accurate, yes? Well, I'm not entirely sure. I have two theories. And to those of you who don't believe in "magic" or "fate"... you watch a show about ponies who can do magic and sometimes mess with the fate of their own world... talk about hypocritical. Anyways, theory one is that it just wasn't my time yet. I still have something in store for me down here on the earthly plain, so I'm back. Theory two is that my grandfather, a great man in my opinion, told the big dogs up top that it isn't my time and all but forced them to put me back.

Now, here comes the "begging for money"... my mother is working a job that keeps her separated from, not just myself, but from the rest of her family as well as the outside world, just so she can afford to put a dent in the medical bills brought about by my hospitalization. My grandmother most recently was working TWO, not one but TWO jobs to pay bills for her house alone while also trying to support me. I hate that. I hate having to rely on others to take care of me now that I'm an adult. My mother doesn't seem to think I care much about it, being as how in her personal opinion I haven't really done anything as far as trying to find a job despite all of the applications I've put out as well as all of the phone calls I've made.

My request, of the fandom at large, is this... I am trying to earn money for my work as a fanfiction author, and so far I haven't gotten any bites from anyone willing to pay. I did receive one commission on a different site to this one but have yet to receive payment for said commission. If any are interested, please, send me a message here and let me know what you're looking for. And please, be as detailed as possible. I will attach my paypal, as it is the only method I have of receiving payment to the message containing your commissioned work. I am open to any and all pairings.

As for samples of my work, I will, within the next few weeks to months following this post, be uploading some of my own work so it can be read and viewed by any who wish to see it and see whether I might possibly be a worth while artist to commission.
