My financial situation has gone from bad to worse, and I can't keep relying on odd jobs and draining my bank account to meet the deficits each month...
My loan payments will go dormant again next semester, but a few nasty things have happened...
So, here's what I'm going to do.
I'm opening for commissions. $10 for headshots, $15 for waist up, and $20 for full body. I'll offer a discount for rough work (just quick colours slapped under the sketch) 25% off, or 50% off for just a sketch. So you could get a sketch headshot for $5.
In the interim, between classwork, I'll keep plugging away at work I still owe. I have a few confirmation sketches to send as soon as I can get access to a working scanner.
My priority is making the laptop payments. My loan payments go on freeze again next semester, and I'll be able to use subsidized loans to...pay off the unsubsidized ones.
Which sounds terrible (and honestly [i]is[/i]) but I'm eligible for a government debt forgiveness program in 10 years, starting whenever my butt enters grad school, so I just have to hope for the best.
I just want to move forward with my life after all of this... somehow.
