I priced out a proper gaming PC so that I can better interact with people. I would like to be able to stream on Twitch or YouTube one day, as well as do more video presentations. This may be a changing target amount as time goes on, but right now my rough estimate is less than $1,800: Part Price Graphics $699.99 CPU $279.98 CPU Cooler $89.90 Motherboard $189.99 RAM $114.99 HDD $49.99 SSD $87.99 PSU $76.99 Case $169.99 Total Cost: $1,759.81 Thank you all! I appreciate you.
Greetings, Salutations, and Hello! Thank you for visiting my Ko-fi. I am an advocate, an educator, and a writer. My love for Star Trek got me through classes from elementary school to college - my baccalaureate capstone discussed Star Trek and how it relates to race and gender. In adulthood, that love expanded to include other science fiction and fantasy universes, most notably the Honor Harrington universe. Noticing a lack of representation in science fiction and fantasy and having an active imagination drove me to start penning my own stories. I have a BA in gender studies and an AA in liberal arts. I want to put my skills to use in education or advocacy work but tend to end up in random other jobs. I've published erotica under the pseudonym Tycho Pendragon.

the Scenes
I have a number of projects that I am working on: 1. I have a website, JustinGrays.org, where I blog about various topics - either shared information from my city, topical situations, or things that I find interesting. 2. I've published erotica under the pseudonym Tycho Pendragon, and am working on more stories in various genres. 3. I have two podcasts, GraysMatter Podcast and Justin on Panels, and I am expanding my YouTube presence. Unfortunately, I also have a couple of stumbling blocks. Mainly, I am limited by the level of technology at my disposal (my laptop is subpar and I don't have a desktop), and I have to spend far too much time looking for better work because I am stressing over the job that I currently have and trying to make ends meet. Because of financial constraints, I am not able to improve my equipment, nor am I able to focus on making the quality posts and stories that I would love to create. At the same time, I while I would love to spend more time writing science fiction and fantasy stories and sharing them with the world, I would also like to be able to start streaming on my Twitch channel. Being able to make a living out of these creative ventures would be fantastic, but as things currently are, I don't have enough time to write, edit, deal with work, and make my meager income stretch as far as I need it to.
