I live near effingham Illinois and can't find anywhere to get fake fur. Anywhere within an hour or two that you guys know about that sells it?

1. Tell us about your most recent project (written or published). What inspired it?

?I recently compiled the first three of my Con Fluff collections into a single volume titled Fuzzy Words. The digital version is currently on sale or can be borrowed on Amazon, and I am in the process of having print copies done, which is very exciting!

2. What’s your writing process like? Are you a “pantser,” an outliner, or something in between?

I am a bit of both; nearly every story begins with an outline, but I don’t force myself to stick to it once the words start to flow. I like to say that “stories write themselves” and it has proven to be true on many occasions. I’ve had funny stories turn serious and drabbles that grew into a few thousand words.

3. What’s your favorite kind of story to write?

My favorite stories to write are the ones in which I lead the reader down a certain path only to throw them a curve at the end. It’s a tricky thing to do right, though, you don’t want to just pull a ‘deus ex.’

4. Which character from your work do you most identify with, and why?

My Christmas story for 2013, “Christmas Wishes,” featured a character that was spending Christmas away from his family for the first time. I certainly sympathized to his plight, having spent my first Christmas away from family fairly recently.

5. Which authors or books have most influenced your work?

My biggest influence is easily Isaac Asimov. In addition to enjoying his science fiction novels and short stories, I loved the way he would write his own thoughts about how a story or book came to be, the “story behind the story” as it was. I have even gone as far to incorporate that device into my own short story collections.

6. What’s the last book you read that you really loved?

As of late, I have been reading books by furry authors to get an idea of what is out there. I found Argo by Rick Griffin to be quite thought-provoking, with some interesting ideas about robots.

7. Besides writing, how do you like to spend your free time?

I enjoy your typical nerd hobbies like video games and comic books, but also like to go out camping and experience the great outdoors every so often. I also record two podcasts, a short slice-of-life podcast called 300 Seconds and a convention discussion one I record with friends named Con Talk.

8. Advice for other writers?

Don’t give up no matter how badly you initially fail. I sold exactly two copies of my first e-book the first year that I put my work up for sale, and sold exactly zero paper books at Furry Fiesta a few years ago. Was I discouraged? Hell yes, I was. Did I stop? Hell, no.

9. Where can readers find your work?

A selection of short stories can be found on my website, eduardosoliz.com. I’m currently trying to upload a new one every month. In addition, the site also contains links to my e-books, blog and podcasts.

10. What’s your favorite thing about the furry fandom?

The amount of creativity to be found in the fandom is nothing short of incredible. Even if a fur isn’t an artist or a musician or a craftsmaker, or a writer, nearly every furry is a creator, even if all they create is a fursona.

More entries in the chibi parade. Michael Banks is an illustrator who specializes in full-color portraits of cute anthropomorphic animals with Really Big Eyes — in the old days, this stuff would likely have been painted on black velvet. You can probably guess what he had in mind when he named his company Sugar Fueled. He sells individual prints, but he’s also put together several collections of his artwork that are available at his official web site.

My girlfriend kind of just embraced her furry-ness, and she decided her fursona was gonna be a cow. I'm not the best... I'm not an artist. I used a line art base to make up a kind of ref sheet for her, so she can actually see what her sona would look like. It still needs work. Anyway, what I'm wondering is if any artist is willing to draw a headshot/upper body shot of her fursona for... free. If I had any money, I'd pay. :( If anyone is willing to draw it out, I'd take just a sketch or line art or whatever. I just think it'd be nice for her to have a real picture of her sona as she gets used to her tail. :3 This is a picture she drew of her cow Blythe. http://i.imgur.com/F9GwxPX.png

No matter what species you are, do you tend to form stronger bonds with people who identify with the same species as you? Or do you personally not care which species someone is?

ie; I myself, being a skunk, will always try to say hello and befriend other skunkfurs.
