It’s March 1st and my personal emergency is here.
I am so close to this not being an emergency. I am a few hundred dollars away.
Since July, I haven’t had a place of my own. I’ve been relying on the grace of friends and my wits. I am now on the threshold of being in my own place. I have signed a lease and paid the security deposit on a place of my own. I need a few hundred dollars more to make the first month’s rent. I’m employed enough as a substitute teacher and in retail to afford it. I expect to propel that teaching further, shifting from higher ed to high school. A place of my own would mean I could write more reliably. I just need to cross the finish line.
Can you help? Can you help just a little. If you can’t help, can you share?
For all who donate at least $100 today, I will make a legacy subscriber to this blog.
Thank you for considering.
My GoFundMe.
And just like that, it was over.
