This is painful and embarrassing, but I don’t have any choice right now.

I haven’t talked about it publicly, but I had some health problems earlier this year that made it hard for me to work. This combined with taking on some smaller projects and not being paid for others, my back is up against the wall. I’ve reached that “Can I feed my cat and keep the lights on?” stage of things. I know this is a lousy time for everyone, but here I am asking for your help.

As I said, I feel rotten doing this, but 2026 blindsided me. If you can help out in any way, I’d be eternally grateful. Hell, I’m grateful even if you just read this far.

Thanks and take care.
