No-Kill Finance is, quite simply, a chronicle of my life as a poorly paid employee at a no-kill cat shelter.  I live in Chicago, I’m 25, and I’m a returning student with a degree in fiction writing (working…slowly…toward vet school).  Perhaps most importantly in keeping with the blog’s theme, I’m nearly broke as of its founding.

I want to chronicle my attempts to live frugally and save a portion of what little money I earn.  I want to keep myself motivated in the work that I do by reminding myself of the impact my job makes.  I want to address the difficulties of trying to live on low wages in a big city.  (I want to put my training in writing to practice for the first time since my graduation four years ago…)

I guess I want to do a lot of things.  Perhaps I haven’t even thought of some of them yet.  I hope I can make this blog-building process interesting enough for some people to join me as I figure it out.

    How do I subscribe to your blog? Mine has a handy dandy subscribe button, where’s yours?

    Ask and ye shall receive. Also, you can subscribe via RSS, though I don’t fully understand what those letters mean.

    I am immensely reassured to hear you say that. I was worried for a while there…
