I Had To

@goodomensafterdark and other people in the GO fandom,

Hey! I make free good omens content because I love sharing with you all, but I am trying to manage my finances as a 19 year old who was kicked out by their mum. I am safe, with a roof over my head, don't fret! But a little extra cash goes a long way. (At the end of this post I will show you how far.)

These are some examples of my art that you might recognise me from:

Anyway, if you're in a financial position to support me:

My commissions are open!! And my Patreon has paid tiers for $2, $5, and $7.

And if you aren't:

My Patreon has a free tier with lots of cool rewards and bonuses.

Plus, Reblogging this post is super helpful even if you can't directly donate. Maybe someone who follows you is in a position to support me.

How far does your money actually go?

Here are a few of my expenses:

Just $2 buys me a whole bag of expired bread at a local bakery. It's enough bread to keep me fed for a whole week!

My commute to work (I'm a pay-what-you-can tutor because I want to eliminate socioeconomic barriers to education. I have to take public transportation to my students' houses) costs me $10 every trip.

My internet bill is $39 a month.

$20 buys me 50 pages of the sketchbook paper I use.

Now, I am in a position where I don't need your support to pay for any part of my lifestyle. But holy fuck is it helpful. It means that I can start paying off my student loans, and that I can actually add to my savings account. (Btw, none of this is your responsibility. Don't feel obligated to maintain my financial decisions. I'm fine, I'm just giving you some insight into my life for the sake of transparency.)

Currently I make $28.75 a month from Patreon alone. I am so grateful for that. It is such a relief to have a bit of extra cash on the side, doing something I love.

If you want to know what my short term savings goal is, I want to buy a drawing tablet so that I can make comics more easily. Those can cost anywhere from 300-1000 dollars, so it'll be a while before I can afford it. Long term, I'm saving up for a deposit on a house. Is that a pipe-dream? Probably. But I'm nothing if not delusional.

Good Omens Fan Content

btw I AM SO obsessed with this picture that hozier posted

they could've given us a shot of Ed putting the earring in but noooooooo (they knew we would have died on the spot)

I don't just think kink should be "allowed" at pride, I think we should train a huge pack of those puppy mask dudes to bark at all of the floats that have corporate branding on them

Dreamed we drove past an store called something like Ineffable Auto Parts and a farm called Boyfriends Gentlebeard and one more I can't remember
