hi, so.. i'm not really quite sure where to begin, so i'll just paste what i've got from the gofundme.
hi!! so, a little backstory.
my name's londyn lee billington. i'm a 21 year old transgender man from lower alabama. i grew up in a tiny town called samson, famous for what's called the worst mass shooting in alabama history, dubbed "the wiregrass massacre". there's a wikipedia page if you're curious.
i am a maladaptive daydreamer, among many other things!
when me and my cousin were very little, we used to play outside and make believe. LARPing, like all kiddos do.
well, for those almost 15 years, never once did it leave me. i constantly and continuously developed it over those many years, and i've found it's turned into something beautiful.
i've shown it to quite a few people, reception has been absolutely nothing but fantastic, it's more than i could've ever asked for. i'm gonna drop a link.
i'd like to try and hit 1k, but any help we can get would be greatly appreciated!

me and some friends are turning it into a webtoon. my mom's facing prison time.
it'll be the 5th time in my life. i don't know how long she's gonna be here, or if i'll see her again.
she's been begging me to write this.
help me make my mom proud of me c:
as a note! there's some really heavy topics in this.
sexual assault, abuse of all kinds, mental health, trauma, war. genocide, et cetera.
this is to raise money for my comic, it's not about world affairs, i've got a novel covering that.
this is just my passion. no real world politics here. we're going to use the money to pay our staff, create a larger team, set up and monetize a discord server, and eventually i'd like to try and pitch it to adult swim!!
i'm super excited to introduce our current team! there's four of us! we have!! (i will update with discord tags soon, i've gotta run it by them first.) imo, a good roleplay buddy of mine, handling editing. my qpr partner bubble, is doing the main art and promotional content, i'm writing the script and setting up the story. then we have my old friend toony, who's going to be drawing the official webcomic!
i'm adopted, my folks are getting older, we live on social security, and have my entire life.
they always told me i could do great things, let's make it happen!
i'm legally blind and disabled, so are my parents. my body nearly shut down from 3 months of not eating on wednesday, we're scrambling to file my taxes, schedule appointments, meet up with my new therapist, etc. bills are due, and i don't even have the money to get my hair cut right now but it's so long it's causing me dysphoria, which is adding to my stress.
please, if you like what you see and are interested in helping out, feel free to dm! my discord is owochi_mawu#2094, dms and pings are totally fine, so is spam.
