This may seem selfish, or begging, but I've run out of options. I moved to California to persue my dreams of being a writer in March. Four weeks later the country was locked down.

Since then I have applied to over sixty jobs, submitted my writing to numerous places, and depleted all my savings. My phone service has been shut off, my car insurance is expired, I'm on thin ice with my roommates to whom i cant contribute anything, and the bank I have my car loan through refuses to negotiate and im now in danger of losing it. If that happens I will be stranded, possibly homeless, and have no hope.

I didnt want to make this, I was convinced to by someone who cares about me. With this money ill be able to get out of trouble with the bank and restore insurance. If I exceed my goal I'll be able to turn my phone back on, and get gig work, delivering food, or something to make ends meet. This isnt laziness, i just need help getting back on my feet. If you cant give, share this link to signal boost.

Thanks
Meryl
