Please help if you can. (Car repairs and commissions)
General | Posted 7 years agoSo here’s the deal.
Last week Draggy’s car broke down 2 hours in to her delivery shift. The car now currently in the shop. We thought it was gonna cost a couple of hundred to fix, which would have been tight but manageable for us but now it’s seems that the issue was the fuel pump or something and we are looking at a bill of something around $1,300. Now we can’t afford that up front so we are having to look at some options to cover that. But the thing is Draggy can’t deliver and earn money with out a car.
I don’t know what to do as I’m not a mechanic.
So here is what I am going to do. This coming Saturday from 8pm central through Sunday and until I cannot physical do any more I am going to hold a gaming marathon stream to help cover some of this cost as well as our Normal bills etc.
Also commissions are open. And I’m offering pre-orders so if you know you would like something from me and can’t think what you like or want to have some time before asking me for it, you can pay upfront and pay for a commission slot in advance.
Tips and gratuities are also welcome.
This journal will be updated as and when I have more news.As well as details about the marathon.
Update: So the repair guy was awesome and found the pump needed cheaper. So it looks like it’s actually only going to be around 700 with labor.
Edit: Forgot to put the Paypal Addy: ShineyKittybird[at]Gmail.com
Update: 2 so, the price is back over 1000, as labor and a couple of small parts have to be seen to. Right now its the low end of 1000.

Streaming and commissions
General | Posted 7 years agoSo next stream will be tomorrow night at 7:30pm. Sorry I know I said I would stream today, but I am choosing stay offline and work on things tonight and tomorrow off stream, so I can catch up on work due.
Also had a bit of a odd day, which ended up with us getting some Birds.
More on the birds later.
I am Wide open for commissions so if you would like something, please feel free to contact me!
Have a nice night.

Concerning Wild Run
General | Posted 7 years agoDear Friends of Wild Run,
I am sorry to announce that Wild Run will not be
going ahead in its current format. While I knew
where I wanted the story to go, something has been
holding me back from fully realizing Lexi's tale.
HOWEVER, Her story does not end here sweet
readers. I will be moving forward with a joint
project, in which our grouchy kitsune will be a
part of and is now in development. I will have
news soon about this exciting new venture.
Thank you for your support and kindness.
Until then,
I love you all.
Kittybird

Yet another crappy connection and a question.
General | Posted 7 years agoSo, Tonight, I have been testing stream connection and it was fine before 7pm, then not long after, the connection tanked seriously and has stayed that way.
So where I wasnt going to stream tomorrow night, I am now going to stream from 5pm Central, maybe that will make a difference. I don't know.
But tonight I wont be streaming, BUT I will be working on commissions and also in to a little something that maybe of interest: Speedpaint.
If I were to offer speedpaints of peoples commissions, would anyone be interested?
So tomorrow. Stream. 5pm Central.
Love you all

Art, Dragon Age and a sick bunny [PLEASE READ]
General | Posted 7 years agoI hate begging, but right now I dont know what else to do.
A plea for commissions and support on Sunday. PLEASE READ
Our little rabbit Nibbler, maybe sick, we have noticed a few little out of the ordinary behaviors and she seems not to want to each much.
Right now we are still trying to make sure we have enough money to cover the rent, but we want to take her to the vet to get her looked at, but when I called today I was told the exam fee STARTS at $100 and then will go up depending on what they find.
Now I must Stress, She does not seem to be in pain or distress but Draggy and I are worried for her.
We would love to be able to take her in straight away and get her taken care of and make sure she really is okay. She is a part of little family and I cant bare to think of her in distress, and I cant even consider "Other Scenario" with out tearing up.
So, Commission Us, Tip me for Sunday Gaming Please.
Now Concerning streaming
Okay. I will (If the streaming Gods alllow) Be streaming tonight.
Commissions are wide open as usual.
A reminder for Sunday:
Easter Sunday at 10 am I will be streaming as much of a full playthrough of Dragon Age 2 as I can!
Now here's the good part, for every $5 dollars donated/tipped the tipper will be able to pick my next plot choice, including who to romance, who to side with in various standoffs, etc.
So basically, this will be a streaming Choose Your Own Adventure Time! With the added bonus of hearing me flail and yell at the game as time goes on. I intend to even have my webcam going so you can SEE me flail and yell

Streaming issues still.
General | Posted 7 years agoSo No stream tonight.
Tomorrow I am going to contact picarto to see if there is anything I can do to improve the streaming.
Because my internet connection has improved drastically, but I still cant stream. It maybe just be site overload or something.
Anyway. Commissions are still wide open! PWYW!!

The State of the Gryphon.
General | Posted 8 years agoSo, Hey guys.
A couple of things I need to let you guys know.
First. You may have noticed I haven't been streaming much lately. This is because the internet provided by our apartment complex has a mind of its own. It drops and slows to the point that streaming is unfeasible and my blood pressure goes through the roof. So for my own sanity and health, until this issue is sorted I will not be streaming. Well I say that, I may try every now and then but they will not be the usual scheduled times. We are currently looking into possible solutions, including buying our own connection, but that could be expensive
Second. Concerning commissions. COMMISSIONS ARE STILL OPEN. I will happily work offline on them, HOWEVER, I have hit a slight SANFU with my art software, so I will be looking at some other options. I can work with what I have but there will be a slight delay in getting work out, but nothing major. Just having to reacquaint myself with some other software. Im sorry for any delays caused by this.
Third. As I wont be streaming I will be putting more effort into trying to get Wild Run back up and going. I've had a few false starts, I know, but I really want to make the tale of my fox and the fae a real thing for you all to enjoy. Speaking of which....if you want a way to support me in my venture and want to see Wild Run flourish I have a Patreon- https://www.patreon.com/Kittybird Or if you would like to just show me some love, I also have a Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/kittybird
But that aside.
DerpDraggy and I are well and we are paddling through this crazy thing called life.
Hope you are doing well too.
Love you all.

Today,
General | Posted 8 years agoHihi.
Todays (Sunday) Stream.
There will be no stream, But this is for a good reason. BECAUSE YOU GUYS ROCK. Thats why.
Im taking Today off from Streaming, so I can focus 100% on commission work and getting owed commissions out without fighting internet connections and streaming pages, and get a head start on the week of art.
Commissions are still open and Ideally I need to try to make My share of next months Rent by the 5th March. We have been playing catch up for months, but If I can do this, it means we have more or less fully caught up.
So if you would like to pre order a commission for the end of this week, I would be more than happy to discuss that.
Next Stream will be Wednesday 7PM Central.
