"There's this service called square cash.

https://square.com/cash

You know what's cool about it is that it just transfers money between two people's bank accounts without some weird middle man that charges you fees or imposes rules on how or what you spend your own fucking money on (cough ahem paypal). They also can't just take your money from you or lock your account and prevent you accessing your own fucking money (ahem PAYPAL cough). You also don't even have to sign up because it is basically an online point of sale like any dang old cash register at the store. The only drawback is that right now they only operate in the US.

Artists, especially those doing adult works, should consider using this service if they can!" -Artdecade

I'm terrible at explaining things so I copy and pasted a promotion another furry made about the service Squarecash! As they said, unfortunately the service is only available for U.S. citizens, but it's a preferable and safer way to pay and receive money compared to PayPal. When I kick off my commissions and polish my account more, I plan on using Squarecash as a means to receive payment unless of couerse the buyer is outside of the U.S.

Hopefully this journal helps anyone else out as well in their daily life!

Whether I'm stuck between classes at school or waiting for kids at work, I found a fun way to spend my free time without overdoing my free time! In Pokefarm, you breed and raise Pokemon by clicking on them daily, whether it's by you or your friends. I just started out, but it'd be awesome to have some peeps join in on the click-a-thon!

Hey everyone! The commissions I've been planning on starting for over a year now are gonna be available soon! I don't have my most recent art on here other than my rushed ref sheet for Anthrocon, but examples will be up soon after a while here.

Now, I've made badges traditionally and digitally before, giving them to a few of my friends as gifts; along with a few sketches here and there when I've had the time. I wanna hear from YOU GUYS, though, what you might want to see from me. I'm all ears(literally because I'm a bat hurr) and am very open to any suggestions you might have for me.

I'm already planning on offering badges and drawings, but again, is there something you guys would like to see more of from commissioners? Even in general?

This year's Anthrocon had to be the BEST convention I've ever went to hands down! The guests of honor were amazing and charming, the people I met were super friendly and kind, and the rave I went to Saturday had INCREDIBLE music. Honestly the only thing that could have made it better was being able to fursuit, but I think I would have died on Sunday due to the humidity even if I did. XD

I also wanna thank  hawkfrostsavenger,  catrosencrantz and Stacy(who doesn't use FA) for hanging out with me the whole time even though I drove them all absolutely batty by the end of the con. :3 You guys are always a blast to hang out with.

I hope to meet the new friends I made at next year's Anthrocon.~ You guys made the whole experience super worth the $200 I spent that weekend! XD

Mostly for me to look up on my phone so I don't miss out on anything and I'm organized for once.

Ends Oct. 11

I've been so busy lately I haven't been able to properly introduce myself! Anyways...

As I mentioned before,  hawkfrostsavenger introduced me to the furry fandom and once I did my research, I became greatly interested! I still have much to learn, which is half the fun I suppose, but hopefully everyone can tolerate my newbie status.

I'm always happy to chat, so PM me whenever you wish!
