Hello redditfurs! I'd really like to get back into the habit of doing traditional art, so I've opened up a few slots for good old fashioned traditional pencil and paper commissions. My submission on FA explains more. Here are some examples:

One

Two

Three

Feel free to contact me here or on my FA if you're interested, thanks reddit :]

As the title may imply, recently I had a somewhat awkward, yet in a way funny, experience due to being a furry. If you'd like to share your experience, I would love to see it. Here's mine:

A friend of mine (let's call him Bob) is quite handy with fabric and recently learned how to make tails, which of course was quite thrilling for me as well, so, seeing as he had used up the last of his fur in learning how to make the things, we arranged a trip to a local fabric store. So we drive to the fabric store (located in the most conservative county in South Carolina) and I'm not thinking much of it, but when we walk in, there are a bunch of older women in there who look at us like we're demons or something. I just stood there, confusedly meeting their glares before it hit me. Two guys walking into a fabric store in one of the most homophobic places in the US, and it suddenly hits me that we're looking almost like a couple. So I immediately go alpha and lower my eyes to avoid eye-contact, we go and find the fur we each wand and ask a lady to measure out a half yard for each of us, which she does, making polite conversation with us and, quite frankly, being the only one in the store who isn't damning us with her eyes. Following this, we go up to the cashier and by this point, my social anxiety has kicked into high-gear and I'm feeling like I need to justify being there, so I tell the cashier that the fur is for a costume, to which she gives a small chuckle. Bob buys his fur and she grins at him and asks if its for his costume. The lady totally smelled my bullshit. Finally we get out and we have a laugh about how awkward it was and I wasn't going to think any more of it.

But when is it ever that easy? (Spoiler alert): Never.

Apparently my European History teacher was one of the ladies in the store. In class the next day she calls me on it. This leads into about fifteen minutes of me trying to convince her and my class of my excuse without looking like a loser. I looked like a loser. The end.

Hello everyone! I am new to the furry culture, but I have been writing stories since I was young and I want to give my hand at writing something furry related.

So here is my idea: Send me either a picture or a general theme to write about. This can either be a fursona of yours, a general description of something you want to see happen, or whatever.

A Few Notes

• Yes these short pieces are going to be free.
• I am capable of smut, but I would much prefer to keep my writing from being explicit. We can work something out if need be.
• I can only do one or two stories at a time, so I may be subjected to only picking a few people.
• The Length of said story will really depend on how inspired I get, but I expect it to be the length of a regular short story.

That being said, if you'd like to ask for a lengthy commission, I have my own pricing for that. I am looking forward to what I will write :)

Hi everyone! I've been drawing my whole life, but only became a part of the furry community pretty recently, I didn't even think to look for furry friends on Reddit! I saw someone elsewhere who wanted a commission for a fursona, so I thought I'd offer my services to anyone that's interested, I am good with written descriptions as well, I've been drawing fursonas for my friends for a while now. here's my furaffinity page here and my usual commission prices/information here. I also draw non-furry stuff too if you want somethign else in my style. I have even more art over at my deviantart here. I am also open to NSFW stuff, but I don't have any examples because no one's asked yet :/ If you'd like to discuss prices or anything, feel free to contact me here or my art websites, I should be able to get back to you quickly either way. Thanks so much for reading! I love drawing fursonas so I look forward to getting a few requests!

So seems like Bedfellows “Krispy Animations” has listen to the general public and made their episodes shorter, with a funny quick ending. Thing I think NOW is that the thing was just too short. But as always it was damn funny and had a good “punch” in the end. Check it out and enjoy! *sorry for the late post it’s obvious because of the hurricane I am behind*

It’s the Thursday Proverb edition of WagzTail Daily. You’re always told not to lie, but what does that really mean? Is it as simple as it sounds? We look to Proverbs 19:5 for details.

Heya Papabear!

Felt I need at least some advice on this as it is really starting to stress me out and scare me a bit.

I'm having some school issues at the moment. I am in the IB program in my senior year and I'm getting ready for my exams and such.

The problem I have is with the IB moderator. Lately she has been on my case about every little thing and is taking every chance she gets to attack me for my work and patronize me as well. It's not that my work is bad, but I have slipped past a few Bad grades with make up summer work. Two years ago, she was helping me out with this and didn't really seem that interested. Now, my grades have improved dramatically and I'm doing very well in school right now, but she is still attacking me for not turning in my CAS (basically service) hours on a regular basis and for being behind on my Extended Essay.

She seems to ignore the fact that I update my CAS hours in bulk and once I finish with the next update, I'll only need about 40 hours left to go which should be filled up quite soon. She also seems to ignore the fact that many other IB students hardly have any hours turned in. With the 200+ hours we need, I don't think getting on my case about it is very helpful.

My EE is another story. My subject is in biology, but I have nowhere to go. My thesis problem doesn't fit well so now I'm thinking of switching subjects to history, which I should be able to do. However, I have a feeling she will not allow that, and that will be outlined shortly. The EE itself, though, is due in February, so I have enough time to write one over breaks and such.

Her actions have gotten to be very very strange lately as well. She is openly scowling at me in school hallways and the lunch room. It's freaking me out a little bit. I don't know if I did anything to insult her or what. I've hardly seen her and the one time I had a meeting with her, I've made an effort to be polite and kind.

My parents tried having a conference with her a while ago, but she ended up handing all the paperwork she had to my guidance counselor who had no idea what to do with it, and proceeded to walk out of the school and leave, passing my parents on the way and telling them the meeting was in a different room and not her office. She called me into her office the next day during school and asked if I wanted to meet. I replied I would like a meeting, but that I didn't feel prepared at the time and would rather have my parents there with me. She instead replied that she would like to get it over with and forced the meeting on me without my consent.

To be fair, she did say she was not available the day before as she had a "family emergency." Why she didn't tell my parents when she saw them is beyond my comprehension. Her brother did die a few months before, but that was about a month and a half before school started. And she was absent for the first month of school anyway.

I found out through a teacher that I am good friends with that this moderator has set up a secret agenda with my teachers and if I miss a deadline or appear to be off track of the material (a problem that has never occurred), they are required to inform her and not me. I also found out last Friday that she passed by one of my friends in the hallway and proceeded to ask if they were friends with me. When my friend replied that she was, the moderator just walked away, not saying anything. That's really creepy.

My parents are rightfully angry at her and wonder why the principal doesn't do anything. They don't seem to understand that the principal is nothing but a placeholder now. This IB moderator placed herself in a very strong position. She can get almost anyone in the school fired by appealing to the principal. I don't understand how this school could have fallen so fast. It was only a few years ago it was recognized as a Blue Ribbon school.

She's really causing me to stress out and I have no idea what to do. I have to meet her soon to discuss changing my EE subject, but I'm scared she'll say no for no other reason than I’m not doing well in the subject I have, and I'll be stuck in a subject I am having a lot of trouble with.

Also, I probably have to have a one-on-one sit down with her and ask her what her problem is with me. I'm genuinely confused and getting scared for my diploma. It will not be fair to kick me out of this program in my senior year. All the work I've done will be worthless.

So why do you think she's attacking me so much? I can understand a reason for motivation, but it's gone way past that. I already show my grades spiking, and I'm working my hardest, and I already have enough stress helping my friends out when they really need it. I don't need this extra stress and I don't think she does either.

Thanks for reading,
DT

Dear DT,

This is a very odd case. I have never heard of a moderator of this type apparently wielding so much power at a school, even, according to you, having sway over the principal. So, first question would be whether she treats other students the way she treats you, or if you are her special little target. If she is just being weird with you, I find it hard to believe that it would just be because you had some problems with some classes in the past. I’m sure she would get that sort of issue all the time with other students.

Assuming you are telling me everything you know, and not holding back on something you have done to her to cause her to act like this, Papabear would guess that she is also treating other students badly, no? This would mean there is quite a performance issue involved. Why she has so much sway over all the teachers in your school, as well as administration, is beyond me. I could only speculate.

Bringing your parents into the issue (which is the correct first option) didn’t seem to work, and getting them in a meeting with the principal also seems unpromising. There are two other places you can go, however, if you have not tried to do so: 1) the Parent Teacher Association, and 2) the school board. Both have conflict resolution bodies. Talk to your parents and contact both organizations for your school.

Let me know how it goes and if more help is needed.

Hugs,

Papabear


P.S. To my readers: It has been 30 years since I was in high school and I'm sure things have changed a lot. Since I have no children of my own, I may easily be unfamiliar with other options that might be available in the case above, so please feel free to offer suggestions. Thanks!

This week on KnotCast, we go Pokemon Style and split the episodes in two once more? Or did we? We talk pre election nonsense, hopes for the now-past election, and read a bunch of emails asking us things. Use our coupon code 'knot' at AdamEve.com for a great deal!

So I've been creeping around reddit for a while and after days of artist's block I have decided to finally make an account and get active in the community! I love doing furry work but there are a few animals I have a hard time with. All of my sketches will be done with my pen tablet, so they're not as precise as my scanned work. Be as detailed as you want, and remember there is no judging here. :3 Thanks so much for reading and I look forward to drawing many lovely creatures.
