Spent the day crafting. Made a pair of earrings and a keychain based on the same pattern. Then I made a bracelet, while fighting a cat who thinks wire is a GREAT TOY. BEST TOY EVER. MUST KILL WIRE. It's a damned good thing she's adorable.

Two words for you: $2 SALE. Three more words: COTTAGECORE GIRL HANNIBAL. Please grab a copy, give one as a gift, help spread the word. And Guillotine is still on sale, too! DOUBLE THE DELILAH FOR $4.
Spent the morning photographing and packaging items. Still have 13 items to package and photo. I ran out of "Made in Canada" stickers, so I'm pausing there.
Managed to get some work done for the shop today. Books are up to date, and I made a bracelet. Gotta trim my nails again, they get so wrecked doing this!

I had seen a great tutorial on how to make a bracelet out of jump rings. Simple. Elegant. I thought "I can do this." Two hours later, I've g

I know I'm a broken record but it really bums me out that people can't quit Twitter and/or Substack. Like "not using a website" is the lowest bar possible and you can't even do that ☹️
Any of you using the ios version of Patreon to support me, switch to the browser version instead, cuz the apple fees have actually taken over 3000 usd from me in the course of a year
doc@docseuss.bsky.social · 6mo agoI'm begging you not to use apple products. This shit is devastating to creators like me
If you're a Patreon creator, go to your Relationship Manager and use this filter to see if anyone's subscribed through the iOS app. If they are, you can send them a DM through the site asking them to switch to subscribing through a browser.

We just had to take on $10,000 of debt so on top of my regular pet portraits I'm gonna offer some quicker versions at half price: $50 for a 9x12 or $100 for 12x16 in this style. DM me to grab a spot, I'm only going to take a handful to start with. And please share if you can!
Hey so our car is fucked. I just had to agree to pay $6,300 to fix a cylinder to renew our registration. It's going to take 2 weeks to repair and 2 years to pay off. I need $1,000 of emergancy dental work. Anything helps. Placecalledbliss.bigcartel.com

At the dentist's office for a cleaning, so no crafting this morning. Decision to apply for canadashops.ca will push my store opening back a bit, but this just gives me more time to prep awesome items for the store!!
I have decided to apply for a spot on Canadashops.ca Run by Canada Post, at least my fees will go to a service that's needed in Canada, not some random group of as.... I mean the shareholders of Etsy. So shop is going to be delayed until that application is approved. Stay tuned for further news!

Needed to take a break from my crafting because the craft room is WARM. Probably because I keep the door closed so the cat cannot come in and send jump rings everywhere. I love her, but she's a wrecking ball at times

Still upset about the Tim Hortons thing. Decided to rage craft. Honestly, I didn't INTEND for the colours to be so .... Yeah
Large print is one of those things where it's so uncommon anymore that a lot of us don't even think to check if there is one, and just get ebook. So, I like to spread the word. Skyla's the first indie author I've seen to go for it- we're usually stuck with the sorts of things you find in airports.
Skyla Dawn Cameron@skyladawn.ca · last wk.Dweller and The Silent Places have sold a few copies each, which is great! For now, I'll take a break--there's a good chance future Livi and Waverly books will have to be split into two volumes, which will take some figuring out, so if earlier books move in this format, I'll come back and do more.
I should be working on #WhimziesBounty stuff this afternoon, but between having a spike of blood pressure this morning that I'm just getting over and the Tim Hortons/Harry Potter news, I am too upset to focus. Maybe I'll go make jewelry and worry about bookwork and photos tomorrow.
Guess I should plus this again. I hate doing self-promotion. But if I don't, no one else will. All funds go to help a multiply disabled queer person surviving on a fixed income. patreon.com/theneurodive...
