Pleh, I promise I do aim to stream today, unless something happens and second party decides to null the agreement in favor of work as the last two weeks have been. I want to knock my list back down to two or three standing commissions so tomorrow can focus on the sketchbook(s).

Been eyeballing the funds for my Reiki training, of which the first course through a friend is coming up this Friday at a hefty (for me in my current income state) price.

Thanks to my folks down south the first class pretty much covered, though my bank will be glowering at me if I have to write a check or do a withdrawal of all the funds up front.

However that still leaves the other two courses, leaving an estimate of $600-700 that I still need to at least somehow make, and that's just for the courses alone and not including the funds I need to maintain for the animals (about $100 per month between all five animals). I know my parents here offered to help see me through, but I know what a crunch they're in keeping the house afloat, so I want to try to cover myself as much as possible.

So I'm asking you guys what do you want to see me offer that would be easy for both parties in creation and commissioning?

My thought pool has brought up $20-25 headshots (digital/traditional), OOAK character designs, art auctions (not sketchbooks, but single pieces) in regards to drawn art. Adoptables are not showing to be a reliable source of income for this endeavor, and I'm not comfortable enough in my monthly turnaround yet to open a Patreon.

What are your thoughts and suggestions?
