Just thought you all should know.
I just wanted to let you all know that I think you are awesome. This community is incredible. I've been a lurker for years, and just wanted everyone to know you have made another furry. I'm not gonna lie to myself anymore. Right now I'm at my fraternity's formal, drinking caribou lous and irish car bombs with a massive dip in, and I guess I'm the right level of drunk for this, but I love you guys and gals. I don't have a fursona or anything, but I am partial to raccoons. Also bulls cuz Im 6'8", and I dont see many bull sonas and I think that would be cool, but the raccoon has an interesting story behind it, but I dont want to bore you guys with that story. Anyways, I love you guys and I am a furry! It feels good to post this, and I love you guys. Half drunken rant over. God I love furrys. Edit: okay things got a little out of hand, and my hangover isnt very fun, but everything I said still stands. You guys rock!

Tail Measuring Contest - by rickgriffin
Results of today's request stream, thanks for those who hung out
And unfortunate number of sona requests considering I was tipsy for about a half hour, will not be doing that combination again. It's a bit of a buzzkill.
But it was still fun and I think I'll do request streams on a semi-frequent basis?

Member Spotlight: Bill “Hafoc” Rogers
1. Tell us about your most recent project (written or published). What inspired it?
My most recent published work is “Squeezer,” a story in the Rabbit Valley anthology Trick or Treat II: Historical Halloween.
Lately, for whatever reason, I’ve been reading and writing a lot of detective stories. I had a series of crime stories involving a modern-day character named Derrick Clydesbank. I had also read a fair deal about the Jack the Ripper case. When the call went out for stories about historical Halloweens, those things percolated and produced my story, “Squeezer,” set in “Vixtorian” London.
Of course this is a century and a half before Derrick’s day, in another country, so I couldn’t use my modern characters. I did still slip in a Father Clydesbank, an “Anglican” priest. He is probably one of Derrick’s less dangerous relatives.
The story is also a horror story, and as usual in horror stories I go with whatever horrifies me myself. Some people think horror writers are monsters for being able to think up such cruel and terrifying stories, but I think most of them are just poor fools who are easier to scare than normal.
2. What’s your writing process like? Are you a “pantser,” an outliner, or something in between?
When I’m on the trail of something really big I go by the seat of the pants. I follow the characters where they lead, and when they show me where they are going I am at least as surprised by it as any reader would be.
The interesting thing about such seat of the pants writing, for me, is that it is always clear that the characters clearly knew where the story was going all along. I never need to go back to put in hints, clues, or foreshadowing; they’re all there already. The story was complete, hanging out there somewhere, and all I did was write it down the way it happened. I’m not sure whether this is more delightful or creepy.
Of course, as I said, I’ve done crime and mystery stories lately, and those are different. To the extent that a story is a mystery, it is more a puzzle than a piece of literature. Puzzles need clues, forms, shapes, and frameworks. The pieces all have to fit, and you have to decide where the detective and the reader will find them. Mystery stories I plan out in my head in advance, although I don’t write formal outlines for them. A few notes are sufficient.
3. What’s your favorite kind of story to write?
The big sweeping adventure tale within which I can get lost. Hopefully my readers will too!
4. Which character from your work do you most identify with, and why?
I don’t identify with any of them too much, although of course all of them incorporate parts of me.
Probably the character I can come closest to identifying with is Dean Lansen, one of the protagonists in Hilltown, a science fiction/fantasy novel published by Melange Books. In a way this is vain because Dean is something more or less than human, almost godlike within his limited range. However, he feels set apart from humanity, as I sometimes do. Above all else, Dean was a character in some of my dreams and lives in a dream version of a town well known and very dear to me. He may not be me, but he is a close neighbor and I know him well.
5. Which authors or books have most influenced your work?
Robert A. Heinlein’s classic teen science fiction novels, such books as Starship Troopers; Have Spacesuit, Will Travel; Tunnel in the Sky; Rocket Ship Galileo (space Nazis!) and of course his various short story collections of the era. I don’t think they have influenced my style all that much, but they lined one shelf in a library where I went as a kid, and I read them all at least once. They got me going in science fiction, which led me to fantasy and furry lit.
In fact, my approach to the furry fandom was via science fiction. I wrote and enjoyed stories with alien characters who were more than just small men in green face paint. Good aliens act and think differently because they aren’t human. Good furry characters do too.
6. What’s the last book you read that you really loved?
One Corpse Too Many by Ellis Peters. It is a mystery set in England during The Anarchy, as I believe it is called. It stars her pious clergyman, good detective, and fine human being, Brother Cadfael.
7. Besides writing, how do you like to spend your free time?
I enjoy those furry conventions I visit. I enjoy reading SF, fantasy, and history, messing around with AM radios to see what comes in at night, and sightseeing and all the usual tourist stuff.
8. Advice for other writers?
Read.
Do what works for you. To make people groan, I like to say “There’s no way to do it wrong, that’s why they call it writing.”
Another piece of advice someone gave me (unfortunately I forget whom) also comes into play. Everyone has a certain amount of bad writing in them. Some more, some less, but everybody has at least some bad stuff. You have to write all that out before the good stuff starts coming out. Get to it.
Have fun. It will keep you going.
9. Where can readers find your work?
My stories appear in Rabbit Valley’s anthologies Trick or Treat, Trick or Treat II, and Pulp! I have a story in the FurPlanet anthology Abandoned Places. My novel Hilltown was published by Melange Books, you may find it at http://www.melange-books.com/authors/billrogers/hilltown.html. I had several stories in the online magazine Anthro, at anthrozine.com. That magazine hasn’t had any activity in a long time but the archived stories are still in place, including mine.
10. What’s your favorite thing about the furry fandom?
The creativity. Other fandoms are creative and dedicated in following their fantasy worlds of choice, be it Trek, comics, or whatever. They create their own characters to explore those worlds. But in the furry fandom, most of us create the worlds too.

Glad you're back! Just getting dinner ready.
What new and unique pranks would you be able to pull in a furry universe?
I'm pretty sure there are a few "hit and run" pranks you could pull on furs with antlers...

Just a story i thought id share.
Prepare for massive text! So, before i start. Let me just say that im not in any way telling people how to handle some sort of situation. or to mimic what i have done, because i know some (or well, most) people cant do the same, for good reason. Anyways, on to the point.
Now, this is for those who might look for courage, or to just feel a little better.
A long time ago, in 4th and 7th grade I was bullied, it wasnt any super major bullying. But nevertheless it was bullying.
It started with some pretty basic verbal stuff, the normal "you suck and so does everything you do and know". But what did it do?
I did literally nothing.
I completely and utterly ignored the person. It was like he didnt even exist. What happened? Things got worse. It moved over to death threats "Im gonna kill you and everyone you know and love" What did i do? Well the exact same thing, i continued to ignore him completely. and i gave him nothing at all. What happened? It got worse...
It moved to pushing, now here it was harder to ignore, because now it was physicall, luckily i had good balance, and as soon as i was pushed i instantly got myself back up and moved like nothing had happened. Things naturally got worse.
But this is where it hit the pinnacle. It was outside of school (and we all know that is some scary shit). When i rounded a corner, there he was. I didnt have a second to react, he punched me in the stomach with his clenched fist as hard as he possibly could, ofcourse i flew back a bit from the force, i had always been tiny after all. But i instantly rose up again and walked past him, again giving him nothing.
Now thats probably the hardest thing i have ever done in my life. But after that, he never bullied me again, now ofcourse as soon as he couldnt see me i collapsed on the floor from pain.
But i gave that man nothing. I learned alot from it. Now the exact same happened in seventh grade, its actually so similar its kinda creepy.
The point is, I learned that alot (although faaaaar from every one) of the bullies just want.. well anything, a reaction, an emotion, just your attention- anything they can get from you is enough.
Now ofcourse some people cant ignore people like that, and there are ofcourse those cases where people get bullied so hard its infact impossible to ignore. I for one know one friend who got his bones actually snapped, and hist throat sliced in 4th grade, spent most of his life in hospital. But thats beyond the point. The point here in the end, is that everyones situation is different and i know that. But i hoped this helps someone, wether its with actuall bullying problems, or just by making someone happy.
Hope you all have a nice day.
