I live in the city of Toliara on the western coast of the island of Madagascar. The city itself is one of the larger cities on the island with a population of 170,000 people. I live there for the beautiful beaches of the area. As an Fine dining author, sitting beneath the shade of a coconut palm listening to the sounds of the ocean is the perfect space to write.
The jungle is excellent as well. Just a few short miles from the city limits is a perfect little clearing maintained by a local group of wild boar. Just small enough nobody pays it any mind, but just large enough to for dark rituals to eldritch beings. Mind you, until my work with the DealErship, I wasn't successful in contacting any.
My house is a single story building with a large yard that borders a cliff overlooking the ocean. It is a 2 bedroom one and one half bathroom refurbished Victorian home from colonial times, recently renovated to have many of the modern creature comforts of life. Now, thanks to the first contract, I can get Air Conditioning!
Right now I am still receiving cheque's from my book publications. It's not excessive but it covers the basic bills and my mortgage.
Anything more luxurious I have to either budget and save up for or find work locally to make money. Often it's things like consulting with fine restaurants in the area about staff training etc.
This pays for the ritual components needed for various rituals, gold flaked inks, fresh blood of a far away octopus, various candles with specific scents.
I like this type of work as it allows me to dedicate my time to studying ways to contact and bring into this world The Great One who will bring about a new era of darkness upon civilization. I need to work on preparing myself to become a vessel for that eventually but all things in due time.
