Being a student and a creator is a whole mood. Between uni fees and bills, I’m out here doing my best to keep the stories coming! Just a heads up: When you pay through the platform, they take such a huge cut that I only actually see about half of it. If you want to support me directly so it 100% reaches me, you can tip here. Even the smallest bit helps more than you know. Thanks for being real ones! ✨
