Today, Feb. 1st, is Hourly Comic Day!

Furry Reddit - Sun 1 Feb 2015 - 12:07

Is it furry? No not technically but a lot of us are artists, and we can make comics furry.

What is hourly comic day? Every hour for today, you draw a 2-3 panel comic about what is going on at that time of the day. Usually, this is more exciting when it's not a sunday, since most of us stay home on weekends, but the challenge is making routine comics on things that you otherwise would find boring.

I love Awkward Zombie so here's a shameless link to one of her hourly comics. She does this every year.

I, unfortunately, will not be doing it this year, mainly due to timing, but I have an unnatural habit of deciding at random through the year "I am declaring today hourly comic day".

So yeah, draw some comics.

The latest anthology from editor Fred Patten, The Furry Future, features 19 furry-themed science fiction stories (or science-fiction-themed furry stories, your call), with at least 15 of those stories coming from FWG members.

FurPlanet’s anthology Five Fortunes (also edited by Fred Patten, and featuring novellas from several members) is now available as an ebook from Bad Dog Books, and you can read FWG member Dronon’s review of it here at Claw & Quill. In other review news, you can now find Fred Patten’s reviews posted at Dogpatch Press.

Eduardo Soliz has just released Con Fluff 3: Nine Charming Furry Short Stories, his third collection of “furry super-short conbook stories”.

Patrick “Bahumat” Rochefort’s From Winter’s Ashes continues with Chapter 1.1 and Chapter 1.2 now posted.

Some of our associate members have been busy too — Jay launched a new blog, and Weasel has a new book review blog himself, along with another story in the literary magazine Earth Is Huge And We Are All On It.

Genderfluid Furry Wants Tips on How to Explain Herself

Furry News Network - Sun 1 Feb 2015 - 07:56
Author: Dear papa bear, I am a natural-born female, but I identify as genderfluid (this means at times I’ll feel female but at other times I feel like I’m a male—and should have been born one). This took some time to figure out. Now my question: As a female I’m bisexual, but as a male … … Continue reading →

Show me/describe your fursona and why you picked it.

Furry Reddit - Sun 1 Feb 2015 - 04:59

Is it rude if I don't do it first?

Right, well, I'll start then.

I picked my sona because of my decent. German and Irish. My hat is basically the "sparkle dog" trait I allowed myself to have and it seems to always be everyones favorite part.

Now, what about everyone else? I know /u/Sareii has done this plenty, which is understandable considering how fantastic their sona is.

Welcome!

Two Old Furry Fans - Sun 1 Feb 2015 - 04:46

Welcome to our front porch on the Internet! We’re glad to have you as our guests. Have a seat on the bench and enjoy the conversations. This was Rod’s idea, but I agreed to participate because one thing I enjoy doing is talking about the furry community (or the furry fandom, as Rod prefers). Either way, we’ve been around since the beginning. We started out living in caves, enjoying the charcoal drawing on the wall, made by our contemporaries, hanging out around the fire and listening /telling stories, and even joining in on the tribal dances.

Seriously, we aren’t THAT old, but we have been involved for a long time in what became the fantastic phenomenon known as furry. We invite you to listen to our stories, laugh and learn about the interest and the family, and maybe join in the dialog. I the future we hope to include interviews with other experienced fans and creators, people that everyone in the fandom may not be aware of, but should be.

Let us get comfortable in our rocking chairs, and begin…
