Update and commissions going forward.
Posted 7 years agoStarting next week, August 6th, I will be starting my shiny new job. I am both excited and terrified to start. I'll be making really good money, with stable hours and days off, but I'm also scared because I've never done this kind of work before. I hope all goes well and the six weeks worth of training will more than prepare me to succeed, but we shall see.
That being said, I do not receive my first paycheck until August 24th. This means that I will need to continue taking commissions at least until then so that I can make sure my bills get paid and I can afford to buy things like pet food and other essentials.
The sum of my bills up until the 24th amount to $385. This doesn't include any late fees that have come up from having to miss payments this last month, but I hope to be able to deal with those once I get my first paycheck. This is just the minimum I'm going to have to pay.
Once I get my first paycheck, I won't be taking commissions as often. I will be working a full 40 hour week, and I also want to be able to focus more on refining my style without the pressure of commissions. I will likely still open slots from time to time, however, and I plan to still do trades, as well as more raffles and the like. So look forward to that! I may also raise my prices at that time. I feel like I'm undercharging myself right now, but the stress of getting enough commissions to pay my bills has kept me from raising them. However, for now, my prices will remain the same.
I plan to sketch up a couple YCHs and open up some slots in the next couple days, because I have a couple bills due at the end of the week.
If there is any theme, pose idea, or type of commission you'd like to see, please let me know!
I want to thank everyone who has commissioned me over this past several months, those who have donated to me in my times of need, and just given their support. Things have been really tough recently, but I think they might finally be starting to turn around. Here's to a new chapter in my life! I hope you guys stick around for the ride.

Internet has been restored!!
Posted 7 years agoAfter over a full month without it, we finally have internet again.
This means that I'll likely be posting art more steadily, as well as interacting with the community more again.
Woo I've missed you guys!

UPDATE -- Please read
Posted 7 years agoLiving without internet has been really tough. Luckily, I've been able to manage doing art and applying to jobs without too much issue, thanks to friends who let me use their internet.
I have done like five interviews for three jobs this week, and have another one on Saturday.
Two of the jobs said no, but I landed the one I REALLY wanted. I'll be making really good money with stable hours in an office setting, so that's super exciting. They said they were "very impressed" with my interview cx This job doesn't start until early August though, so I'm still trying to find something in the meantime.
One of the jobs that denied employment was for a specialist position, and while they said they weren't going to go forward with it, I showed promise, and the assistant manager seemed to really like me. I have another interview scheduled for tomorrow afternoon for a regular position at that same store, so I'd imagine I'll be able to land that without any real problems.
Most of my queue is done. I haven't done a lot of art the last couple days because I've been in crazy interview mode. I have an appointment to have my fingerprints done this afternoon, and I'm pretty sure I'm being taken out to celebrate my job(s) on Saturday, but I promise I'll get cracking on the rest of stuff in my spare time. Commissions will probably slow down a bit due to my job, but I still want to do them. But having this more steady income for higher amounts is seriously going to help me get back on my feet.
I want to thank EVERYONE for being patient and supportive for these last several months. You guys mean the world to me, and I wouldn't be where I am now if it wasn't for each and every one of you <3

The investigator called me-- update on situation
Posted 7 years agoIf you want to learn more about this situation, read these journals:
http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8767682/
http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8767816/
I got a call from the investigator and told him the situation. He said that if the guy picked it up in another state, then there isn't anything he can really do, which I find utterly bullshit.
He may or may not call me back, it was hard to say from the way he was talking, but I hope he does.
I want to see what I can do to push forward on this case, despite it being out of state. Surely SOMEONE can do something. This guy should not be allowed to continue doing this just because he's across state lines.
But for now, it looks like I'm stuck with the negative balance with no way to rectify it other than working my ass off to pay it off.
I plan to get a new bank account so that I can still live, but I will be slowly paying off that debt as well.
I still have emergency commissions open. If you'd like to order one, I would much appreciate it: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8767834/
I plan to start working on my queue today, but if someone orders an emergency commission, those will be done in between.

Spoke with a police officer.
Posted 7 years agoHe was very helpful, but unfortunately, it seems like the case is going to be complicated.
Because the guy is out of state, and likely someone who has done this before, there is a chance fake IDs were used and that the check is forged or he took the money out before the check cleared.
He is going to file an investigation, and I should hear back in the next couple days -- unfortunately if I don't pay my $50 phone bill, it will be shut off, which will make this way harder.
I'll probably be opening some emergency commissions to cover that, but please, if you're willing to donate, my ko-fi is here: https://ko-fi.com/A47051V1
Luckily I'll be able to use whatever funds I get from that to pay that bill because I have a paypal card.
I will be in contact with the fraud departments for my bank, the bank the check was made with, and Walmart for the Walmart to Walmart transfer.

So I got scammed out of nearly $3000.
Posted 7 years agoApparently the guy I sold the RV to bounced the check that he sent me.
I had already paid off the loan and sent back the money so he could get it moved.
He messaged me like the next day, saying there was a family emergency and had to do something with the money, when he knew that I had already sent it all.
I thought it was okay, but apparently the check hadn't fully cleared, despite me being able to use the money. My bank said it was because I had good standing, so they allowed immediate access. I called the guy a bunch of times but he won't answer phone calls or texts.
My bank told me to file a police report so I'm getting ready to do that. Not sure what I'm going to do in the meantime. All the money I had in my paypal, I just transfered over to my bank, but I didn't check my balance before hand, so now its just. Gone.
Please, if you can toss me some money so I can at least pay for a couple necessities and my $50 phone bill tomorrow I would be SO SO SO appreciative. More than willing to draw for anything that is sent. Just let me know what you want.
If you want to donate, my kofi is here:https://ko-fi.com/A47051V1
I can't seem to catch a fucking break......

New laptop has arrived!
Posted 7 years agoThe laptop that I was sent has finally arrived, so now I can FINALLY get back to my queue.
I can also play Overwatch on this, which is SUPER exciting cx
I will be returning to things owed on the queue hopefully tonight, but if not, I definitely will be tomorrow.
I want to thank everyone for their patience and understanding. Things should be back to normal soon!
Like I mentioned in my last journal, I will likely be accepting more same-day commissions to help pay for bills, but it will likely be things like sketches or small chibis. I'm getting a bit burned out on pixels, though I will likely be opening for some of those as well cx
Who knows, maybe I'll even be able to stream with this laptop! I think that'd be super fun.

Are you in an art slump?
Posted 7 years agoI know everyone goes through them, some last a day, some last months. It sucks no matter what, and you just feel awful the whole time.
I found this post AGES ago and I have kept it ever since because it is so important and such a great way to think about your art and your growth: http://flynnbrigade.tumblr.com/post.....-flynneware-we
Believe it or not, you are literally ALWAYS getting better, especially if you keep drawing consistently.
I hear a lot of people say that doing studies and technical art really helped them with their slumps too, so keep that in mind if you're in a slump!
I hope this helps someone, because it's helped me so much over the years.

Laptop update - commissioners please read!
Posted 7 years agoOkay, so in case you didn't know, my main art laptop is currently out of commission until I can get a replacement charger. The cheapest I've been able to find, due to the fact that its a high power laptop, is $60. I cannot currently afford this right now, but I'm working on finding a job, as well trying to take more commissions to cover it.
I do have some alternative laptops. The one I'm on now lets me draw occassionally, but I have to reset my driver every time I need to use sai, or I have no pen pressure. Unfortunately, this doesn't always work, which makes working on commissions extremely difficult.
I've tried the other spare computers (my boyfriends old laptop, as well as his sisters laptop) but even with new drivers, they still don't work correctly. I'm still working on finding a temporary solution.
The good news is that I have someone working on sending me their old laptop, since they got a new one a little while back. It might take a few more days to get it prepped and shipped and then for it to actually arrive. In the meantime, I will still be doing my best to make this current laptop work as well as seeing if I can't get another one to work.
I do have commissions open, and I'm willing to do discounts and deals. The sooner I can get a new charger for my laptop, the sooner I can get back to work and knocking out everything I owe. I also still have bills to make in the meantime, so I'd appreciate every little bit I can get until I can get all of this sorted out ; A ;

Its so nice..
Posted 7 years agoIt's so nice, after five years of being on this website, to finally have a fursona that I not only connect with deeply, but that I want literally everyone to draw xD
I still love my two other "sonas," Soul and Tokio, but I often found myself second-guessing whether I wanted certain artists to draw them. And it wasn't because I didn't think the artists could draw them well or anything like that. Theyre both pretty basic furries. I think with Tokio, it was the constant battle of "which form do I want drawn" or wanting a certain body type drawn, but also wanted to commission artists who had a specialty in another (like muscles vs more feminine bodied characters). And in the instance of Soul.. idk he just kinda felt bland? Same with Tokio. They both seemed kind of one-note-y to me. Not that I find their designs bland- oh hell no, I love and adore both of their designs bc they're both so easy and fun to draw. But like. Their personalities and what they represented to ME felt kinda bland and disconnected, if that makes sense?
But with Magnai. He's so... REAL to me. He's three dimensional and exciting and bright. He's dynamic and interesting and I don't struggle picking him for artists to draw him. I literally want everyone to draw him xP
Sorry this journal was kind of pointless but I wanted to talk about it I guess.
What are your relationships with your sona(s) like? Have you ever had any kind of struggles with getting art of any of them before?

NEED TO BUY NEW LAPTOP CHARGER - please help ; A ;
Posted 7 years agoUgh. I hate having all these emergency posts, but this is a necessity if I'm going to continue doing art.
Turns out my laptop screen got a little messed up in all the chaos of the move.
I inspected my charger, and it looks like some wires got exposed and one of the internal wires got shredded, which could be the cause, which is what I'm really really hoping all it is. If its just the charger, its only about $30-50 to get a new one, depending on where I can find one to get fast enough.
I have halo YCHs still open: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/27424954/
I have all commission types open: https://www.furaffinity.net/commissions/thanxia/
And you can donate to my ko-fi here: https://ko-fi.com/A47051V1
If you donate, I am willing to draw something for you!! You just have to let me know you donated so I can contact you for a reference.
Please, art is my only source of income right now until I find a job.

Made it back safely! Ending freebie raffle tonight!
Posted 7 years agoSo things got mad crazy and hectic on Friday. Suddenly the apartment that we dumped over $600 on was basically pulled out from under us because our roommate told us pets were fine, but she signed the lease that said no dogs allowed. We were told we had to leave that day, and all my family was out of town for the holiday weekend or unwilling to help. 
Luckily, my partners mom was able to wire us gas money to drive back to Iowa so that's what we did. We ended up breaking down on our second day and were stuck on the side of the road for like four hours in the heat while AAA called a million places trying to find someone willing to tow an RV. Luckily they found someone willing to take us to a nearby truck stop so we could wait while my partners mom drove the 500+ miles to get us, which was like eight hours. Then we packed up as much shit as we could into the car and left.
We had to leave a lot of shit behind, including our mattress which really sucks, and quite a bit of our clothes and other personal belongings we didn't REALLY want to leave behind but didn't have the space for. Luckily we got the most important shit and enough stuff to survive on.
I know I was supposed to end my raffle Saturday, but amidst the chaos, i totally forgot. So I'm extending it until tonight! So enter while you can: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8741820/
Gonna need some funds to buy a new mattress, get some food for my cat, and stuff like that. Hopefully I find a steady job soon so we can start really saving. But for now all commissions are still open! I'll probably be posting more ychs in the coming days and once I'm rested, I'll be getting back to working on what I owe.
Thank you all so much for your patience and support!!! It means the world to me.

Need a little extra funds to get home! Please help ; A ;
Posted 7 years agoSo our situation has continued to go downhill. Now we're essentially homeless again. However, my boyfriends aunt dipped into her living expenses to help us get back to Des Moines. We want to rent an enterprise instead of risking it with the rv yet again for nearly 1000 miles. The money they're giving us is NEARLY enough. If I can get another $100-200 we should be solid. 
Please I'm desperate. I know I keep asking for help, but once we get back to Iowa, we'll be golden. We'll have a place to stay and I can get another job so I won't have to be asking for help anymore.
My commissions are open. All forms. Willing to do a buy one get one 50% off or free deal.
If you want to donate, I will draw for any amount donated! Please do so here: https://ko-fi.com/A47051V1
If you donate, please let me know so I can get a reference from you.
We want to leave tomorrow if possible. Please please any little bit will help ; u ; share if you can!!

Need to pay bills and buy litter etc! I'm desperate pls help
Posted 7 years agoAll of this moving nonsense and the bullshit with the power and stuff has me REALLY behind on everything.
I have bills that need pay (some past due, but I'm prioritizing some more important ones right now) but I also need to get my cat some litter and a few more necessities.
I'm willing to do literally anything. I'll even offer buy one get one 50% off or even free at this point.
I'm desperate for money right now and I only have a couple days to get it before more bills are late. I can't afford all these late fees.
I haven't been able to start looking for a job yet, but now that I at least have power and my phone's hot spot, I can start looking, but lord knows how long that's going to take.

    I have bills that need pay (some past due, but I'm prioritizing some more important ones right now) but I also need to get my cat some litter and a few more necessities.
I'm willing to do literally anything. I'll even offer buy one get one 50% off or even free at this point.
I'm desperate for money right now and I only have a couple days to get it before more bills are late. I can't afford all these late fees.
I haven't been able to start looking for a job yet, but now that I at least have power and my phone's hot spot, I can start looking, but lord knows how long that's going to take.

Found a place to live! Moving in tomorrow.
Posted 7 years agoAlright so after SO MUCH ENDLESS SEARCHING, we found an affordable place without staying with anyone creepy.
We also have a few people interested in buying the RV which is nice, so. That's looking up too.
But yeah! We move in tomorrow, so I'll be busy doing that most of the day. I plan to do some commission work tonight to make up for it.
I don't have enough for bills coming up but. At this point I'll just pay a late fee. I'm just glad that we have a place.
We only really have enough to get there and pay for the first month, so I'm going to be hitting commissions really hard to help save for bills and rent for the next month. I also have to save for the second half of the pet deposit since the other people are paying half of it for us to help out.
I'm also going to be applying for some jobs- my cousin suggested a few places so that's definitely the start.
But yeah! Commissions are still very much open! All forms and all that. If you're interested, please comment or note me!

My current situation, explained.
Posted 7 years agoI was a bit hesitant to give the full extent of this story due to the potentially dangerous position my boyfriend and I were in.
As a lot of you may know, I travelled for three days to move to Georgia to live in what was supposed to be a small community led with love and communication at the forefront. We were very excited about this, as it is something we always dreamed of, and from all the communication we had before the move, we were very optimistic about it.
We had a few minor complications upon arrival, but the first few days were quite pleasant. They seemed super friendly, we met some of their friends, and were starting to get used to life out there.
Unfortunately, very suddenly, it seemed as if a switch got flipped in the guy who "led" things. The once bubbly, understanding and helpful man was now controlling, angry, and unwilling to compromise. We felt very on edge all the time, as if they were expecting us to suddenly know exactly what to do and how to do it when we were never given an extensive tour or any instructions or even what a basic chore list would be. He was quite passive aggressive and put our dogs health and well-being in a compromising position, and would not budge on that because he was more concerned with the tiny garlic garden he had planted.
He threw fits, got angry and always told stories of violence. We very quickly no longer felt safe- and one of the scariest parts was that we were somewhere where there was no phone reception, so if shit turned that way, we couldn't even call the cops if we needed to.
I finally broke down after a particularly rough evening and she got us a hotel to stay for the night until we could drive to my cousin's about two hours away to stay for a couple days until I could drive up to my sister's. So we packed up all our shit in the matter of an hour and left.
We made it to my cousin's, but not without its hiccups. The first hill out of that community was so steep that my breaks couldn't handle it, causing me to lose control of the vehicle for a moment, and I literally thought we were going to die. Luckily we made it out with only a little damage to the front end of the RV. I haven't been able to investigate much further because the metal has bent in a way that I can't open the hatch. I'll probably be prying it open later.
The RV is not in great shape, but we're going to try to drive it up to my sister's anyway and hopefully find a way to get rid of it without effecting me financially too much. I don't have high hopes about it though.
I don't know what I'm going to do once I'm at my sister's. We'll only be allowed to stay for two weeks, so I don't know what I'm going to do after that. She said we'd talk about it once we're there but I'm so terrified. My mother wants me to move back in with her, but she won't allow my boyfriend to come with me for whatever reason, which would force him to go back and live with his mother, who can't even afford to support herself, her daughter, her boyfriend, and their three children. They have been struggling to pay bills for months, so adding another person to the mix wouldn't help, even if he COULD find a job. He wouldn't have his own space, and we'd be separated. It would just be a bad place for us both to be, mentally and emotionally.
Two weeks isn't long enough for me to get a job and get enough pay checks to save for even a super cheap apartment. I don't know what I'm going to do. My cat isn't even going to be allowed out of his crate at all because of allergies that other family members have. Like, at that point, I'd rather get rid of him than put him through that torture for two weeks.
I don't know what to do. I don't know what can be done. I don't have like. Any options left. I could go live with my mom and deal with the absolute misery of being away from my partner of three years for god knows how long until I can save to get us together again. Or we can go back to Iowa and live in that shithole with his mother and find a job and be forced to pay out the ass to help support them while also trying to save for our own place, which will take at least twice as long.
I just. Really felt like I needed to explain this situation for you guys. I'm going through so fucking much right now, crying literally every day and I'm just so exhausted, mentally, emotionally, and physically that I can't eat or sleep.

I wish I had more furry friends
Posted 7 years agoNone of the friends I talk to regularly are furries, or at least they aren't into it as much as I am.
I have like. Two friends who I can talk about my OCs to and roleplay with
But I'd love to be able to do that with more people- do banter on twitter and doodle dumb shit of our OCs doing dumb shit.
I miss back in the day when I had quite a few people on here that I could consider really good friends, but after being gone for so long, I don't really have anyone anymore.
Talk to me about your OCs ; A ;
