Everyone has something special they put to their fursona, either actions, powers, or just their looks. I know for me I gave Leo a patchwork pattern for his head, and a few more specialized markings, but I know of other furs who have their sonas "occupied" with a job of some kind. What kind of twists have you given your fursona?

Hi, my name is McFluffypom. I'm a tri-gender pyrofox from the forest planet I'm a generically young deer with the personality of a microwave oven, that happens to have a surprising amount of charisma. I feature wood-side panelling and a glossy cream finish I'm just a really generic looking deer. In fact, I can imagine when people look at me; they go "That's a human" then look away because I meticulously dress not to be noticed by anyone who might be judging me. My hobbies include avoiding people, making fun of current events, and fearing how the world may choose to cut my plentiful life short within a moment's notice.

Also I draw shitty things with a mouse, and relatively okay things on paper (I'm just being modest, I really actually like drawing and have been quite proud of myself lately).

Have you ever noticed how society sucks? I have. In fact, I wrote a book on it once. It was just two pages of incoherent screaming meant to represent my innermost struggle when played against the world and losing.

I won a pulitzer prize. And a microwave oven.

Hello all! Ok, so a little background on this hyena. My fursona name is Rumtum and I am currently 28 but have been a furry since I was 16. I couldn't put a name to it until I stumbled across Yiffstar (don't judge me D:) and saw the term furry. This was back in 2002 when Toumal ran the site.....and I suddenly feel old.

Where was I?

Oh, yes. Introductions. Ahem My hobbies are primarily pc gaming and tabletop gaming. Currently I'm playing a lot of Marvel Heroes and Smite. When I'm not working or gaming I'm usually watching Disney movies, watching old 80s / 90s cartoons, baking, or napping.

My thoughts are starting to disjoint, so I'll conclude here before the rambling starts. Feel free to comment and/or ask any questions you may have! :D

1. Tell us about your most recent project (written or published). What inspired it? ?My most recent finished work is The Painted Cat, and it’s a novel about a teacher in a backwater town who falls in love with a cartoon cat and the city in which she lives. (Trust me, it makes sense in context!) I was inspired to write it after moving to Chicago from small-town Indiana. The impact that move had? on my happiness and my social life was huge and I wanted to explore the differences between those environments.

?It should come out later this year.? 2. What’s your writing process like? Are you a “pantser,” an outliner, or something in between? Writing an outline is the kiss of death for any one of my drafts. I come up with a fun concept and plan out some sort of “final scene” to work toward. Then I might put down some one-sentence ideas for the next scene, or things I want characters to say at some point, but those usually get wiped off the notes page. As long as I’m building dramatic tension and working toward my endpoint, writing is seat-of-the-pants all the way.

Besides, why would I write a story if I already know how it ends? There’s no motivation for me there.? 3. What’s your favorite kind of story to write? Character pieces that take the extraordinary and make it ordinary fascinate me.? ?My stories usually revolve around a group of people with similar but conflicting views of the world learning that their enemies are also human. Lots of small disagreements drive the tension in my stories.

?In other words: “The world is crazy, but how are John and Jane Doe coping with it? Let’s be a fly on their wall.”? 4. Which character from your work do you most identify with, and why?

Oh my, that’s a tough one! My philosophy in writing is that good, honest prose comes from being true to yourself and your experiences. As such, most of my characters have a piece of my personality at their core. Of those pieces I most identify with the ones that point out that we can’t waste our lives worrying about what other people think. Cassia in Bait and Switch was a good example of this.?

5. Which authors or books have most influenced your work? I grew up a voracious reader of Mercedes Lackey books, which helped me identify the way a novel is constructed. (Most of her stories have the same bones which made identifying patterns a lot easier.) Bradbury taught me the power of prose that had been elevated to poetic heights. Philip K. Dick taught me the power of surrealism and the unreliable narrator.? 6. What’s the last book you read that you really loved?

I finally got down to reading ?Cory Doctrow’s Pirate Cinema ?recently and it’s a fantastic book. Fun characters, a slightly unbelievable premise, and a healthy dose of critique of copyright law come together to create a great narrative.

7. Besides writing, how do you like to spend your free time? My Day Job, mostly. Girl’s gotta eat!

Beyond that, I play video games, board games, RPGs, and hang out with friends in the area. I’m also planning my wedding with my fiancé, and if I didn’t mention that somewhere in the interview I’m pretty sure she’d throttle me.? 8. Advice for other writers? Keep writing! You might not be at the level you want to be in the here and now, but the only thing that fixes it is practice.? ?I wrote enough bad transformation stories, cruddy Sonic fanfics, and shared universe furry stories? to fill a closet full of shame and regret. Still, those stories made me better.

Also, don’t be afraid to stretch your legs. I did a stint as a political columnist for two years and learned a lot about my writing. Write stuff you’re not comfortable writing. Fail. Look at why you failed. Learn to not fail next time. 9. Where can readers find your work?

You can find my work on Amazon, but beyond that I’m trying to figure out what to do with my stories. For now I have a small collection of pieces at www.furaffinity.net/user/slyford.

10. What’s your favorite thing about the furry fandom? Furry is a no-judgment zone where people can find their identity. Once you’ve found your place, you can even stay for the great friends you’ve made!

I wrote about my experience with furry in this article for {adjective] [species] that explains the identity-finding bit further. http://adjectivespecies.com/2014/10/31/austen-writes-her-furry-story/?

Author: Good afternoon (as of February 03, 2015). I am a young male of mixed Puerto-Rican/Azerbaijani heritage, with Sunni Moslem beliefs, studying at the university level. I discovered what is called the “furry fandom” on the Internet back in 2007, and my experiences have not always been positive. For now, I will not deal with […]

Hello you furry fiends, I've been very inactive lately. This is my first post in quite a while and I feel out of touch. It's sinful, hence the title. Or... Sinfur? I need to stop the fur puns.

Anyways, is there any significant event that I've missed? :O
