Next PWW Stream on Saturday - Doctor Who themed!
13 years ago
Ok, here's the deal for the next Pay Whatcha Want batch! I know folks were disappointed that they weren't able to catch a slot the past couple times and Moxie's doing better, so here's what I'm gonna do..
On Saturday evening (aiming for 7PM PST) I will be starting another PWW Stream. Same parameters as last time (G-rated single character only, no background, minimum $5 preferred), only there will be ELEVEN slots available before I close the queue. Why eleven? Well, there's eleven Doctors! Each character will be dressed as a different incarnation of the Doctor, from Hartnell on up to Smith! Why? Because I love Doctor Who. I mean, you're talking to the dimwit who dressed her daughter up as all the doctors here. :)
- Do you have to be present at the stream to get a slot?
Yes, you do. I know the time's not gonna work for everyone, but keep in mind I will be opening back up for regular commissions at the beginning of the new year, and those you won't have to be on stream for. :)
- Do I get to pick which Doctor I get to be?
When you send in your paypal payment (and please don't send anything UNLESS I tell you you've got a slot!) you can request your top three or five picks in the notes section and I'll do my very best to match you to your favorite. :) But it is first come first serve so someone may get to pick before you.
- Are you doing all eleven on Saturday?
Nope, I'm going to aim for one or two a night. My hopes are that I can get this project complete for you guys in the next few weeks.
- If I don't get a slot this time, will you be doing more PWW streams?
Yes, but I won't open for anything new until all these guys are finished.
- I don't want a slot, I just wanna donate.
LKSFHIUWFHLWIFHLKSJFHLSKJF!! I'm really touched that people have been offering to do this. I have a hard time accepting gifts for reasons that
genesisw has been able to explain far more eloquently than I ever could, but please know that if you offer/have offered, and I seem flustered, it's just that I'm overwhelmed with gratitude. Heck, I'm overwhelmed that people have actually been buying these PWW commissions from me! Every little bit helps right now and Arty and I are so, so SO grateful. The money from the last batch has been used on gas so we can drive up to the hospital to visit our little girl.- I don't have any money, wish I could help.
Well, if it's all right with you, would you advertise this stream for me? That'd be huge! It'll be located at http://www.livestream.com/vincifruit and the plan is Saturday evening at 7PM PST. All proceeds from the stream/commissions are going towards expenses for my little girl Moxie. She's a week old and currently in the NICU for ongoing respiratory problems.
- How is Moxie doing, anyway?
She's getting better! Here's a video of Arty holding her: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRjPHxZe9ZU
She's on room oxygen now (finally!!) but is having feeding issues and is back on IV fluids for the time being. Once she's able to eat we can move onto the next set of milestones that need to happen before she goes home. Hopefully that will be next week sometime.
- Where is the money going towards?
1. Gas. The NICU is 35 miles from our house, and we go up and back multiple times a day.
2. Hospital grade pump rental. I opted to rent a hospital pump to ensure Moxie gets as much milk from me as possible, since I can't physically nurse her right now.
3. Supplemental income. Arty's going to take a huge paycut if he needs to dig into his Family Leave, which is looking more and more likely the longer Moxie stays in the hospital. I'm trying to save up so we're able to pay our bills during that time.
4. The NICU bill. I'm not looking forward to seeing that thing, but my daughter's life is priceless, so...
Anyhow, that's the whole gist. Please please do pass this around, and thanks again to everyone for your well wishes and support. Moxie is a lucky girl to have so many caring friends already. :)
FA+

Hope to catch the stream this Saturday (even if I don't get into the cue it's always fun). And no problem advertising the stream - will do that regardless!
and just see who notices
I'm so glad Moxie is doing better. <3
I'll keep an eye out on LJ for updates like usual.
As for your stream, I hope I can make it, though there may be other things in my plans. I do so love the Doctor.
I are sadpanda now!
Glad to hear she is doing better.
[betting the line will be for Four, Ten, and Eleven]
However, if a slot for Doctor #2 (Troughton) should happen to open up, please let me know!
