Chicago Science Fiction Convention looking for Artists and Dealers
First thing you are wondering is, what does this have to do with Furry?
My name is Deb Kosiba, you can find me on FA as bigblued. My husband and I sell decals at AC and MFF under the business name Seward Street Studios.
I am also the Convention Chairman of Windycon 41, a general Science Fiction Convention in the Chicago West Suburbs.
Having attended both general cons and furry cons for years, I can tell you there is a lot of crossover in interests, but neither group seems to know it. As someone with a foot in both waters, I'm trying to bring the two groups in contact with each other.
Our theme this year is Grimm Tales, and we are going to be focusing on storytelling and folklore. Keeping with that theme, I am bringing in Fursuit maker extraordinaire, Matrices, as our costuming Guest of Honor.
I am also reaching out to the Furry community to try to bring in some of the awesome artists and dealers we have at furry cons. Your amazing art is something most of Windycon's attendees have never seen before, and you get to tap into a brand new buying audience.
Some basic info:
Windycon 41 is a general science fiction convention held in Lombard, IL on November 14-16, 2014. Our attendance is usually around 1,200 members. The main page of our web site is www.windycon.org
Our Art Show is based on a Silent Auction model. We also have a Print Shop where you can sell prints. You do not have to attend to participate, we are happy to take mail-in submissions. The link to our Art Show rules are here. windycon.org/pages/artshow.aspx
Our Dealers Room is basically the same as at a furry con, where you purchase table space for the weekend. The link to our Dealer’s Room information is here windycon.org/pages/dealers.aspx
Feel free to ask me anything you'd like about Windycon 41, I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.
Thanks! Deb Kosiba Chair-Windycon 41 aka bigblued

I did it, guys. I did it.
I've been working on lucid dreaming for about 2 years now with the goal in mind to have sex with an actual furry (you know, not a fursuit, no offense). Granted I've come across other awesome shit along the way, but finally, last night, I had the most amazing sex with a red and teal dog. He was pretty fem and so nice. After a lot of vicious pounding we came together, and I felt incredible. The best part was shortly into the sex I forgot I was dreaming, so I thought it was real. I didn't get a chance to check myself out though, other than my blue dick. I want to do so much more still, but man what a milestone.

About commissions
So after my earlier post about fursonas, i got some ideas for my own. I don't really have the skills to draw, not even a basic sketch for the commissioner to start from, although i can probably say enough specifics. What i would like to know is about how commissions work, how the process of payment would happen, as being 16 yo. might give some problems. Also ALL tips for commissions and sharing of artists that are open for them are more than welcome. The earlier thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/furry/comments/2dw1zf/a_newcomer_asking_about_fursonas/

Decided to release the plot(s) I'm currently considering for my story Tracks. Need advice.
Need help on deciding whether to give it a full completion or leave it on a cliffhanger. If I leave it on a cliffhanger, I'll end up writing something on the side to complete it for those who want closure. If I bring it to a full stop (or period for you American's), I'll want to write more, but have no need to. So I'm giving a MASSIVE SPOILER ALERT to you lot before I continue:
Story up til ending: (this is based on the fact that you've read the WIP chapter 8) Uchuu and Zez look at the cctv tapes. Face is ambiguous, but a dragon, so they go with the fingerprints as evidence and decide that Scritt is the criminal. Fisher is tinkering with plasma mechanics. Finishes up and has a prototype Plasma gun. Joins up with Uchuu and Zez. Question people who know Scritt, finds out where he lives. Goes to house. Scritt answers door. They confront him. He jumps out of a window, and glides to ground (with his wings obviously) and gets in his car. Uchuu, Zez and Fisher run down stairs and get in car. Long car chase until they reach the top of a cliff by the sea. Scritt has fisher's backpack (Fisher left it outside his car stupidly) pulls out laptop. Rips out hard drive. Threatens to throw it into sea. CLIFFHANGER: Fisher shoots at Scritt. Hits his wing. Scritt throws the hard drive over his shoulder. I DO NOT SAY IT LANDED IN THE SEA (Which is why this is the cliffhanger) End of story.
Full stop ending: Fisher shoots. Hard drive falls. Scritt arrested. About to take him to the police station. Tarak climbs up cliff holding hard drive. Tells Fisher he owes him one. Drive off into the sunset.
So. What sounds better? And any other suggestions? EDIT Possible third ending: Scritt flies of into the air. Uchuu takes them to nearby airport. Private plane (turbo prop and sliding side door). Air chase and capture ensues (Did I use the correct word?).

Another design I'm happy with, up for auction!
question for a not-furry. how do you're parents surroundings react to your fandom?
im not a furry but i do understand the hole thing. And i've always wonder what your parents and surrounding think of you and your fandom. do they support you? did you have too come out of the forrest/closet? i mean this in all respect, im just curious.
