Guys I really need to put emphasis on something. I may have "Numbers" here for followers and on twitch, but I can't begin to explain to you just -how hard- it is to be a freelance artist with a TON of student loan debt in your pocket to boot. I'm trying EXTRA hard (thread)

to give you guys free information in my OWN free time about where I go for manufacturers, what I do, how I do it, and more. I try SO HARD to keep you guys enthusiastic and not ask for much back. I feel really, REALLY bad ever asking for RT's and the likes, but sometimes

I REALLY HAVE TO ASK. I need YOUR HELP to keep me doing this. RT's of my art, RT's of kickstarters I do, RT's of my friends, helping me stay connected to the outside, even. What's going on. What's hot. REAL interest in my work, Commissions, etc. THIS IS SO HARD TO DO AND I

I CAN _NOT_ DO IT WITHOUT YOU. Word travels, and I want to make the absolute BEST experience for you all for as cheap as possible, but it's absolutely TAXING on my life to keep it up. I want to, so, so bad, so any ANY support, from patreon, to RT's, to telling me a cool thing

coming out, to product you like, to things you're buying from me, to twitch subs, to keeping HERE WITH ME. MEANS. SO MUCH. I don't have extra time to just play games right now. I don't have extra time to give you all the details of everything. I hardly have time to keep up as is

I absolutely have NO CHOICE but to keep up on my bills, my student loans, my rent, new product, how to do it, how to apply to a new con, looking up new manus, looking up how to draw something new, keeping my art fresh, keeping my mind and body together so I can work...

that making all my stream stuff great, making sure I keep up with you guys, keeping up on social media, RTing all my own stuff, staying on Tumblr, Twitch, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, checking shipment prices, making sure customers are happy, double checking my work, double

checking taxes, did I do my write offs right, did I do my bills right, did I pay my bills on another state correctly, did I take care of my booth, do I need to do new displays, do I need new content for stream, do I need new content for patreon, what can I afford for stream

how can I afford it for stream, how can I do give aways without eating into my wallet, how can I travel to the next con as cheap as possible to say hi and give advice, what other advice can I give, what will keep people coming back, what will keep customers interested, what do

people want, ETC ETC ETC. The lists goes on. I'm constantly in a loop of all of this.

Now mind you, I DO NOT MIND GIVING OUT INFORMATION THAT I CAN. Im just saying, I RELY ON YOU. I want to keep this possible, but to do so, I NEED YOU.

And I hate asking and I absolutely HATE having this thread, but I can NOT express how much it helps when the shop does good, or patreon goes ok, or twitch subs are in and people are having fun. I'm trying. But I need your information, RT's, Help, guidance, just as much as

you guys need me and my information. I want to keep this hand in hand as much as I can. I want to give back as much as I can. But that's so hard without your help.

AND I AM NOT A BIG STREAMER. I'm not big at all! I'm a tiny person who many really don't know. Compared to your

"super large well known streamers" Im not. I get like 30-50 viewers at a time. THAT'S VERY SMALL. It's an art stream. I get very little responses here on twitter. I get very little of ANYTHING so it's not easy to get a reach out especially if I'm doing it wrong, but I don't know!

Help me help you. You need a retweet? You poke me. I'll do what I can back as well. I'll give you all the information I know. I'll help sit down with you if I can. I'll do everything in my power WHEN I can. But I am only one person...

WIth that, thank you for listening and understanding. And I hope you guys understand my big thread here. I love you all greatly and a lot of you have done SO much for me and I continue to appreciate that. Let's keep working together to make all of this happen. <3
