I realized early on but forgot something important, least 'bout my life. And sitting chatting with @icontalks about how to get crypto to our cold storage wallets distracted me. I lost my train of thought. I knew it had something to do with how the game is played. 'rehive' would be a sick rebrand of 'reblog'. Play by your own rules, and win. Too many I feel are shaving away at the part of them that makes them unique, simply to make room for doing what's 'required' by someone else's standards. In any case, doing what makes me happy has made all the difference. I'm working up the courage to send this letter, mistakes and all, to petition the aid of another dedicated to what makes 'em happy. Wish me luck?


D Dear Miss Hunt,

I bet hope this letter finds you at a ripe moment. You may not know who I am, cause we only matched on Tinder. My first impression of was you, I must tell you. I admire an artist dedicated to their craft. I was even more stunned to learn you have skill with the loom. Forgive my ignorance, as my expertise concerns the art of photography. Namely, I specialize in portraiture. As it were, I must admit I am reaching out in the hopes you'll help me, from one artist to another. I'm nothing else but passionate, to still be at this for eight years. But I sense a similar drive from you as I view your portfolio. If it's no trouble, I'd like to meet you. I find myself at a bit of a stalemate, commissioning subjects to sit for portraits. The world's changed and with it, its taste and preferences. I fear many are quite satisfied with selfies from their smartphones, leaving me out like a college kid without a job. It doesn't hold me back, as mom always said there would bed ays like this. Yet, it hasn't gotten any easier either. Please find included a print from my first ever roll of monochrome film, for your viewing pleasure. I look forward to your response.

Artistically yours,
Kyle Laroche Eyma

Cheers. Earned, not given.

You classy bastard....nice
