Not boding well.

Another day of clouds that will accomplish absolutely nothing.

Everything is deadly dry. It's ten degrees cooler this week, and still more than twenty degrees above where it should be. It's not boding well for winter, and that's terrifying.

Nothing else is boding well, either. I need to sell something today. I think the hay is due to be delivered on Friday, and I've got to cover that, as well as everything else between now and all of the autopays that come with the first of the month next week.

It's been a terrible year on virtually every front, and I'm afraid we not might make it.

So it's back to the sales salt mines, without a lot of hope to accompany the work. A few days ago, I posted Wings's three newest works, rings all, here; they're amazing and you need to see them, so please go look, share them, and if you know someone who needs one (or the medicine of any of his other work), buyPlease.

Now, all the rest. I'm slower than ever because of my illness; everything takes me so much longer. I mean, everybody already knows that this year has been terrible on virtually every front, so much so that we're really up against it now. This year has been so slow that we're way behind on everything, including prepaying next year's taxes [that's a zero; a big fat zero]. I'm so much farther behind on everything, even more than I usually am: pushing sales, paperwork, housework, you name it. I did at least get his two newest BIG works up here last week, so there's that. They're both amazing, but the turtle is something truly extraordinary, and it's Sunday's featured work at NDN Silver. If I could sell that this week, I could quit worrying at least until November (including the hay_. 

Still. We have to make up a LOT of ground financially over the next two+ months. A LOT. I need to bring in at least one sale a week, preferably two, for the remainder of the year. And it's clear that my illness's progression means that I cannot maintain the pace or workload I have in years past. That means that we need help with shares, and with testimonials, too. If you have some of Wings's work and are willing to have a testimonial published on the site, send it to me via the Contact form (we will list you however you wish, by name, name and initial, initials only, some other way that doesn't identify you; you can see an example in our newest, here, and with luck, I'll have a second one up by tonight). All the links are listed below, so please share:

  • Sales here
  • Testimonials here
  • Amazon wishlist here (liquid soaps are priority now [or Amazon cards, and I can order them myself]); 
  • Patreon here;
  • Ko-fi here.

There's lots of fabulous work on the site, and there will be much, much more in the weeks to come. The way this year has gone, things will still be grim for a good while and the holidays will be here before you know it, so please share all of the links.
