Being evicted---out of time HELP!
Donation protected
Hey guys ,
first thanks for even bothering to read this. I know right now is a bad time for so many out there that my silly worries seem insignificant by comparison.
My name is Mark Propst and I have spent my life as a comic book artist.
33 years of nothing but. You can google me.
The past year has been a struggle. I got too far behind when my father passed. I sat by his side for two months and I wasn't able to recover.
I dropped my commission prices so low it put six months of work on me in exchange for one months worth of bills.
I am facing eviction and the utilities being shut off any day now. If fact today is the final day for the power.
I am a month and a half behind on the rent. I know when she see the power off and me and my son living here she'll file for a forced eviction under the damaging the property clause or whatever it's called.
I have tapped out any and all resources trying to stay afloat and fulfill my promises to those who bought commissions from me as well as paying my bills as I go.
I am daily having to deal with refunds I don't have the funds for and the work has dried up.
This isn't just me. I also have a teen age son who is counting on me.
Currently he needs glasses. I do not feel my pride is greater than his needs . That's why I am here using gofundme.
I have been working 90 plus hours a week to over come my mistake from last year. I have been able to keep from going under but at this point I am not able to stop it.
I need 1500 to give myself another month to try and work off the debts and start selling new work. My record for selling finished work is pretty good. You can see a lot of it on facebook or a DC comic from a 1990 to 2012,
I want to work off my debts, fulfill my promises and take care of my son like he deserves.
Last month blood pressure issues started and the new work stopped coming in.
A project that was helping me get by, was canceled when production slowed down due to the doctors trying to find out exactly what prescriptions I should be on. Now after weeks of trying everything I could think of Thing are shutting off . I am out of time.
I really hate it has come to this, running a go fund me. I do. I don't expect it to help with all the others who need help out there. But I can NOT let it happen without being able to say I tried everything.
There is no family left to turn to.
It will be shelters if I fail to fix this.
