Hello all of you people,
I realize that I've strayed from the path of literature, to posting images of my work. I get not everyone is going to like that. Many--if not most--are here to read Transformation/Furry themed tales of adventure, action, romance, and bullshittery. Well, it has been a long while since I've set my mind to writing for the public. For the past couple of months, my writing has been exclusively private. That means I'm still writing, just not for anyone's eyes but my own.
The recent posts are focused on promoting my craft. I make tags, pendants, props, cosplay, and I even repaint certain objects (though that is mostly a fun hobby.) I won't deny they are solely promotional--I need the support and money. College, rent, groceries, materials, books, and clothing all adds up to one hell of a bill every month. I can barely do it. My current job is about to end (it is seasonal only) and I have no idea what I will do if I can't line something up soon. Don't think I'm asking for money.
I'm not.
The goal is to spread my business around as much as possible to garner the most attention. By gaining attention, I hope to expand my sales further. It's that simple. My plan is to be as transparent as possible. I earn what I need. Working is all I know.
So what about this page then? Am I going to convert it to my personal billboard?
As tempting as that is, that is not what I'm going to do. Written works will return to this page--along with my pictures of the things I make to sell. I'm also reopening written commissions! So if you have a story you need written, I'm available! I love writing! For years I've practiced and honed my skills as an author. I don't plan on being officially published. There are plenty of other ambitions I want to achieve. Don't let that dissuade you, however, I'd love to help put together the world in your mind through the magic of words!
So keep me in mind when you're thinking about that character you'd love to add some background to...

Commissions
Commission Details Prices and Returns: $15 per 1,000 words standard rate, or 1.5¢ per word. I use PayPal. I don’t have any other means of accepting payment. Editing during the drafting stages costs no extra. Should the final draft be agreed upon, but a large edit would like to be made, there will be a $10 fee incurred. Unless the edit is grammatical or syntax-related. That is on me, and I do not charge for those edits after the project is finalized. The outline process does not cost anything. This is the stage where the client and I brainstorm together. These discussions will provide details for what the story will be about, what kind of characters will be in it, what the setting is and so on. The outline will be sent to the client upon completion so it can be assessed and tweaked as necessary. Before writing begins, I do require half of the payment be sent as a held fee. This protects my time and work. There is a diminishing rate for returns if the client would like to cancel
Stress, Career and Commissions
Howdy everyone, It's been a hot minute since I've touched DeviantART. I hope you all are doing well and holding up. I know things have been kind of hectic since 2019, but hey what can you do? Just keep on keeping on; that's about it, right? I'm going to give everyone a brief update on where I've been, outstanding projects, plans for the future and what's in store for my page here. If you're looking for a Tl;Dr, it'll be included at the end. So let's get to it. For three years I worked at a local hospital. I'm no nurse or doctor, I was just someone who cleaned and disinfected operating rooms after surgeries were performed. I worked there through the Covid pandemic. It was not a good place to be, though not only because of Covid. The job itself was exhausting from the overtime, lack of staffing, management was drowning, and as things got harder the higher-ups were demanding more and more from us. I'd lost all time to myself, and my drive for writing died. I kept practicing on the
It's been a long time.
It really has been quite the span of time. Adult life turned and dumped me off at a crossroads where I took the wrong turn. I made every single bad choice, lost a lot of people in my life, took on massive debt from medical bills, watched my family leave my side, and so my love for writing died with nearly all of my passions I had. Despite all of this, life found a way to mend the bad and there's a light on my horizon now. For all of the people who left me, I have a resilient group who remained through the good and the bad. Thick and thin--as tired as that saying may be--has shown me no matter how difficult the road gets, I will inevitably encounter good souls along the way. The best of them all, of course, is my partner. She's been truly sweet to me, and her company is not without healing. That healing has ignited an old itch I didn't think would return after my mom passed away. I feel the need to write, and so I have been writing. The products have been small and cautious little
Ideas and Questions
Howdy-howdy folks,
I hope you all had a great Halloween (a bit late, I know) and that all is well. Nothing beats the season where the leaves start dropping and the temperature spikes down close enough that the promise of snow is ever present. My sarcasm doesn't leave much room for me to get by when it comes to snow. Despite living in a pretty darn cold state, I do not enjoy the frost and ice much.
What I do like, however, is writing. In the spirit of the northern winds that keep on sweeping through, I'll keep this breezy.
I have a couple of rough drafts sitting here in front of me. Some of them are traditional horror pieces, anothe
