Hey Reader,

I've spent 3 hours today, and many, many, many more this last week trying to go live.

Since Thursday I've attempted two platforms, and now I'm finalizing the third.

Don't worry, somehow I am not on blood pressure or anxiety medication, so I think I'm doing alright.

I also received my first troll, while seeking advice and support as to which platform people recommended for live painting (and live art). Just one asshole.

But, when I said I was leaving the platform, one person reached out to me right away. A poemist ? Poetry writer? She/He/They (I'm not sure), this person, Ceramic Milk on Substack they said I could share their site, which is amazing.

They connected with me and joined me Irish-side Discord Channel. I like to play music, and listen with people and chat. They told me Twitch is where I'm about to wander off to.

Then my friend Richard and I hadn't talked in a long while, so we chatted and I mentioned Twitch and he's like, "oh yeah, they just sent me $90." and he hasn't been active in ages. We decided to stream together sometimes.

So, I finally figured out the things I need, and I'm going to go live here. Now. Fucking finally. So I can paint.

If you want to come on Zoom later, let me know.

Byeeeee and sincerely,

Melissa McGuckin

WHAT I WANT TO SAY:

If you know anyone who may enjoy what i'm up to:

Please do consider sharing my links and continuing to be apart of whatever it is I do everyday to make people feel good, including me. And it's messy as fuck, sometimes.

and sad,

I don't mix well with shallow.

Or cruelty, quitters or liars.

And I don't want to be mean.

and funny,

​

beautiful, different, unique, strange, weird, and genuine.

And will absolutely fucking bite you, and peel your face off.

But... I am kind.

So,

welp (As said by one of the funniest people I've ever met, from her husband. ...lmao what am I going on about?)

Here we go,

omg I'm so scared.

hehehe.
