Written Commissions
Posted 12 years agoBased on recent experience and advice (or chastising) from my artist friends, I am revising my commissions a bit.
Due to the amount of effort I do put into my work and the quality I intend to give, I'm raising my prices.
I would also like to state that I have hypothyroidism - a condition where my thyroid isn't putting out the chemical it should that helps the body generate energy - and, for whatever reason, it has a patchy response to the medication. Sometimes it's effective and I feel fine, other times I'm all but narcoleptic, forgetful as sin, and can't concentrate. Between that and my demanding overnight work schedule - I work five to six nine hour overnights a week which sometimes leave me drained. Your commission, thus, may take a week or so to be finished, but, because I do aim for decent turnaround time, this is for quality purposes. Nothing is good if it is rushed to just "get it done", and, in the interest of artistic pride and in pleasing the customer, I don't want to turn out sub-par, rushed product.
Now on to business.
My commission slots are unlimited, as there are always bills to pay. But, to form a portfolio and as a personal challenge, I hope to reach 50 commissions!
My written commissions are for:
Free verse poetry: $3-$5
-Several lines of pretty, descriptive language, peppered with metaphors and pretty wordplay
-No promises for rhyme or meter! But if you wish, I can try; for a vilanelle or a tersa rima, etc.
Character descriptions: $5-$15 (depending on length and complexity)
-Written out character history.
-The commissioner (henceforth referred to as "you") can either send me a rough set of notes with the idea you have for a character's history, and I can write it up nice an neat for you, like a summary, or you may throw a design at me and tell me to make up a history for it! I only require knowing what "type" of character you prefer, such as self confident or meek, etc.
Short stories: $10-$25
-A story with the content of your choice or, if you wish, a surprise.
-Can have up to four characters, yours and others'.
-Will be around five pages on average; more than seven costs more.
-Can be an adult "naughty" story, such as a gift between significant others, or an excerpt from a characters' past; however, there are some rules here. Content can also simply be a cute, fluff kind of romantic, or action such as a fight scene, sad or lamenting, a period of reflection, etc.
I am far more comfortable with gay or lesbian sex than straight. Straight takes more time and may cost more.
I require anyone commissioning such a story to be at least 18.
May include more than two characters or include most kinks; simply keep in mind that this is the most expensive kind of commission.
I am willing to try my hand at most kinks. Just ask and I'll let you know up front if it's not something I'm willing to venture into.
All I require is as much information on the character(s) involved and their looks and personalities as is available, and an idea of what you want in the written work. Please be as specific as your idea is, so I can work to meet your expectations! If interested, just shoot me a note and we can talk!

An Anniversary
Posted 12 years agoTomorrow is my one year anniversary.
4:00 in the morning, exactly one year ago as of... 20 hours from this moment, I boarded a train from the Aberdeen train station in Maryland to come move to my new home in Massachusetts. So close to one year ago, I escaped from a living hell that was both my life and living inside my mind. 10:00am I arrived to meet the person I owe everything I have now to, memento, to go home; taking my first steps toward the first place I could call home, with the first real family I have ever had, and to begin a real life.
Today I can feel that excitement that I felt then. For no reason other than this acknowledgment of how different my life - and I - are. I escaped a cycle of abuse, a circle of liars and manipulators and moved on to a better place. Today, I can feel that strength, that knowledge of who I am today and the knowledge that because of this chance I took I get to be the person that I want to be. And I know that, here, surrounding myself with good people, I will get the chance to be a better, less dark and cynical person than I ever would have been there.
I write this today for two reasons.
One, as a huge thank you to memento for everything she has given me. A best friend, a sister, my creative inspiration, and a true strength to always act and do what is best for myself and those I care for. Never forget, Princess, you helped me find this person that was buried alive under a life of neglect, hardship and being (literally) beaten down; held hostage in distrust and cynicism. Two days of online messages, and I knew I wanted this friendship. I needed a good friend and I have never, ever been so confident so fast that I had found one before. I'm glad we spoke. I'm glad we took these chances for each other. I wouldn't want my life any other way. Thank you. I can't even begin to say it enough. Your friendship is the most influential, most inspirational, most heartwarming and supportive thing I have ever had in my life, and the first time in a long, long time I truly got to know I am loved. You are the best big little sister ever and don't you ever, ever forget it.
Secondly; as hopeful inspiration to anyone who may read this that a life can always, always get better as long as you're willing to try and make it so. Given the right materials, you can build happiness on your own, even in a cold, desolate wasteland. There is always, always some good to find. And, should you find yourself caught in a cycle like I was, you do not have to be trapped forever; just do not give up.
Never give up. Each and every one of you are too good for that. Everyone deserves to be treated with compassion and consideration. Everyone deserves to feel that they have a right to be who they are and be comfortable in that skin.
I am:
A woman who thinks like a man
Pansexual
Clean
A writer
A role play-er
A gamer
An overnight cashier who is now semi-amused by the drunken harassment she endures (to a point)
A sufferer of artistic talent envy
A caretaker and a rescuer
And I am proud of that. And everyone who reads this deserves to know that they should be proud of themselves too.
Each.
And.
Every.
One.
Because as that old addage goes; Life is built to tear at the soul, but it proves you have one.
Good people are often too rare in this world. Take pride in every good and kind moment and action, because the world needs more people who are willing to show that side of themselves.

Peace and goodwill to all; and a special shoutout to some of those good people, those whom I also consider good friends of mine, I hope you hear me, each and every one of you. You're worth it.
