Starving Artist Appreciates Help





Hey, What's up? Cool.
Hey, normally I wouldn't do this but I really need all my viewers help. I've been going though some tough times and that's why I have been losing all my focus on my artistic endeavors. You know like my poems, essays, and articles. I have also be remiss in help some of my friends with their artistic projects all because of the all consuming need to survive.

You know the deal. The bills, the rent, the food, all need to be paid for with money and usually my mode of getting those funds usually starts with some part-time job and ends with me on government funds. Well I was and I am getting really tired of the endless cycle. At this rate I really feel that if I could only publish my works and find an audience that I could be on my way to being self-efficient. Not rolling in the dough and all that but at least less dependant on government funds and more able to focus on the work that I love...writing.

So what does this all have to do with you the viewer? Well as much as I'd love to write a little chapbook of poems and selling them though PayPal and such I can't. Why? Because of what I've mentioned above. Now not even the local government agencies can help me. (Not that they have been very much help in the past. But perhaps more about that later in a more appropriate forum. Perhaps my political blog?  ;>) Needless to say that their main goal is to keep the status quo and get the lower-income public more lower income jobs that barely pay the bills but hey shows all the "tax-paying" citizens that a particular government agency is helping people with lower income. Gotta love that cycle. But I digress. Here it comes viewer and some of you might not like what I have to ask but if I didn't ask then I wouldn't get. Not an answer yes or no from anyone if I am not brave enough to ask at all. So ya.....

...can you please find it in your heart, soul, or mere moral conscience to donate what ever you feel is  appropriate. From your PayPal account to mine. 10 cents to 25 dollars, any little bit helps. Click on the PayPal Icon on your right and find out all you need to be kind as well as discreet. This starving artist thanks you in advance. And please if you don't have anything nice to say keep it to yourself. Thank You.
