I am not good at asking for funding.

ouiserfonseca:

As a writer, I already have that annoying tendency to value art over money. And as someone who grew up dirt-poor and loving every second filled with mud pies, clothespins, and kind neighbors with crooked teeth, I am further distanced from the idea that money brings about happiness.

But maybe it does. Despite of sucking at asking for funding, I am doing so in order to make tuition for my fellowship with Lambda Literary. Writing is one part talent, one part having the funds available to do great things.

For every donation I receive, regardless of amount, I will write a poem dedicated to the donor.

I don’t have the money to spare right now but maybe one of you does?
