but I have heard some spoilers, and I have a proposition for everyone to consider.
Just an average insane brony, doing average insane things. Professional Fanfiction Writer and Purveyor, relevant links are on my profile page.

There are things more important than money. This is one of them. If you know where Holy is, tell Estee right now. And if you don't, PM Holy and give him your support right now. If you're too young to know what we're talking about... I'm sorry to expose you to this sort of pain on this sort of site,
My last blog post was on the first of this month, and... it was a bit of a downer. I rambled about money and... purpose, I guess... And then I disappeared. First of all, I'd like to thank everyone who helped out, before I get on this.
I've been doing some thinking.
And it's not your fault. Not my readers, not my patrons, not my friends... I could say it's society's fault, but it's not like anybody could have expected this.
I spent so long working on collabs this month that I only got two patreon chapters out. And they're both first chapters. The first chapter of Psychosynthesis, and the first chapter of Hypersonic Boom.
That's right, this month was pure pony.
Well, half-pony.
Well, half-pony and a referece.
The eight-chapter story I'm calling P14 for shorthand came to me out of almost nowhere and has consumed my every day this last week. And now it is done. So if you want to read that, you can!
A little under seven hours ago, I explained my financial issues. I was expecting, maybe, two hundred dollars.
I have more than a thousand in my paypal account now.
That's...
wow.
That's just about enough to pay for next month, not even counting my Patreon income.
I need money.
Every time I say this, it gets brushed off. Because it's not an emergency, because it's not a big number, because it's not a one-time thing.
Here's my situation: My income is patreon, and that is it. I publish six chapters of fanfic worth a month, and that barely pays my bills. I go to the food bank twice a month to cover groceries. My rent is paid by my parents... who themselves have recently been fired because why the heck not.
I've been quiet for half the month because I've been working on a lot of projects.
A while back I bought an RTX pass. So I will probably go to RTX.
I want to go to Bronycon and participate in the Golden Oaks Bookstore thing. I do not have the money for either of these options and probably won't unless somebody funds me. Hooray living below the poverty line!
I am a judge for the FimFiction Feghoot Festival.
Just a quick recap, before we get into things.
