With all the talk about SOPA, PIPA, ACTA, and a few other draconian copyright enforcement laws being discussed I'm wondering how this would affect the fandom if they're ever passed.

We’ve successfully made it to 2012 and we’re gearing up for one hell of a year – but – we need help!  In 2010 and 2011, we maintained and updated a Convention Page for most of the furry conventions in the US and around the world.  Because of time constraints, I and the Associate Editors don’t have time to collect all the details and put together updated pages for 2012 and beyond.

We’re looking for someone who is willing to update these pages as new information comes in from Convention organizers, as well as someone who may actually be attending some of these conventions – to offer convention reports after the event has happened.

If you are willing to update the Conventions, and you have basic knowledge of how to use a blogging platform like WordPress, please contact us at EMAIL LINK.  We have a calendar system in place to help with creating pages, as well as allowing users the ability to download the calendar to their smart phones or desktop computers or tablets.

Meet the Furries and Fans at 2012′s Most Unconventional Convention By Sherilyn Connelly Tue., Jan. 17 2012 at 2:00 PM Categories: Events, Over the Weekend, Queer

My first genre convention — and certainly the most far-flung — was the second and finalMystery Science Theater 3000 ConventioCon Expo Fest-A-Rama in Minneapolis in 1996. I give conventions a wide berth these days, because — aside from the fact that I love few things as much as I love Mystery Science Theater 3000 – others I’ve attended have left a bad taste in my mouth. This malaise is perfectly summed up in Red Letter Media’s video recap of the 2011 Chicago Comic Con.
But I’d been looking forward to Further Confusion, the annual furry convention in San Jose. I got to attend as a media rep, I found some really cool stuff, and I got to try on a full fursuit for the first time.

?That the convention’s media director Chairo (read my interview with him here) invited my girlfriend Marta and me to attend as media for the Exhibitionist made it all the more awesome. Gods know we were given the best lanyard-badges EVAR.

It’s that time again, boys and girls (and everything else)! Sorry about the intro getting interrupted, but you can expect a lot more “no” if PIPA gets put through and/or SOPA is revived and snuck through when nobody’s looking. The price of freedom is eternal vigilance, after all! We’ve got three e-mails this time, though two are from Sclariqrevk; remember, all of the rest of you are allowed – even encouraged! – to e-mail us with your issue! The last is from a listener whose brother is having a really rough time of things. Lots of doors have been closed, but we try to pry open any possible venue to help! We’ve also got a rant about drama vs. conflict, our word of the week (this), Harry Belafonte, Final Fantasy, 2-D vs. 3-D, icecapades, Obama’s state of the union address, and other various and sundry items!

Next week’s show is going to be something entirely new. We’re going to be doing a show about confessions. All e-mails will be completely anonymous, and we encourage the usage of services like gmail and Hotmail to create new accounts through which to send us anything you want to get off of your chest. As usual, we’re also perfectly willing to field any requests for help or other topics. Remember, we want to hear from you – you ARE Fuzzy Logic!

Also, we will be recording our first LIVE episode of Fuzzy Logic at Furry Fiesta this year, on February 24th at 9:00p. We want to invite all of our listeners to come and join us, and we want you to send us e-mails to read on the show; if you want us to save what you send for the live show, just include that in the subject line!

Finally, Kyo should have us live on iTunes sometime over the weekend; come Monday, check for us!

More e-books we’ve stumbled across… Check out Lycanthropy Anonymous by J.A. Konrath. This 2011 book concerns lycanthropy — shapeshifting — and the myriad ways it can make your life complicated. Here, check out the publisher’s description from Amazon: “It isn’t easy being a werewolf. Especially when you’re a newbie at shapeshifting. Lucky, there’s a group called Shapeshifters Anonymous that will help you work through the difficult times, like eating your friends, and shedding. When recently turned werewolf Robert Weston Smith discovers his new found abilities in a humorous (but alarming) way, he seeks out the support group to help him figure things out. There he meets various characters who transform into assorted, odd things, including a sexy werecheetah named Irena. But little did Weston know he’d been followed to this private gathering, by someone who wants to do the therianthropes a great deal of harm… ” The description goes on, “Shapeshifters Anonymous is a 12,000 word novella, specifically formatted for Kindle. It contains a handful of werepeople, a dash of romance, some gratuitous humor, and revisionist Xmas theories. It also has previews of Konrath’s other work.” And it’s available for the Kindle right now.
