Furry Author Nominated for Actual Award

Weasel Wordsmith - Mon 9 Aug 2010 - 13:14

While hearing that Kyell Gold has been nominated for an award may seem old news by this point, hearing that he was nominated for an award by a decades old, non-furry, science fiction club adds a new level of legitimacy to the fandom.

“Race to the Moon” (which many of you may know better as “that Kyell Gold story with no sex in it”), was chosen as a finalist for the Washington Science Fiction Association’s Small Press Awards, in the category of Short Fiction. A total of eight stories were selected as finalists.

What makes WSFA’s awards different from their contemporaries is that the voters read the stories without knowing the author or publisher. The association claims this removes bias and makes the works stand on their own merit.

“Race to the Moon” was submitted to the club last year by the publisher, Sofawolf Press. The story appeared in the Summer 2009 issue of New Fables, the annual short story collection Sofawolf publishes.

Gold is using the nomination as an example of fandom writing making the leap into the professional realm.

“I’m deeply honored by this nomination,” Gold said. “I think it validates what many of us have been saying about the writing in the fandom: that it is getting better and has a place in mainstream SF.”

The winner of the award will be announced during an award ceremony at the science fiction convention Capclave in October.

The WSFA, founded in 1947, is the oldest science fiction club in the Washington DC area, and one of the oldest science fiction clubs in the country. For the past 60 years the club has hosted numerous annual science fiction conventions, like Capclave.

The WSAF has a full list of the nominees on their website.

Dragon Puncher

In-Fur-Nation - Fri 6 Aug 2010 - 08:17

James Kochalka (creator of Monkey vs. Robot and other strangeness) is back with a new full-color, hardcover graphic novel from Top Shelf Productions. Dragon Puncher Volume 1 gives us the adventures of, well, Dragon Puncher: “A cute but ruthless kitty in an armored battle suit, dedicated to defeating dangerous dragons wherever they may be. The Dragon Puncher and his would-be sidekick Spoony-E (a fuzzy little fellow armed with a wooden spoon) confront a gigantic, drooling dragon and have a ridiculous, hilarious brawl”. You heard ‘em. The artwork combines Kolchalka’s well-known funny animal style with humorous photography for a “goofy backyard adventure”.

…We are SO sorry >.>

~~~Twenty One Cunts~~~

Do you know what’s worth screaming for?
When it’s not worth crying for?
Does it take your breath away
And you feel your muscles contracting?

Does the pain weigh out the pride?
With your legs spread and cervix stretched wide?
Does the brat-bullet through you slide?
You’re a weapon….

One, twenty-one cunts
Spread out your legs, lube up your thighs
One, twenty-one cunts
Kick up your feet, point to the sky, aimin’ high

When your insides crunch and you groan
And your guts clench out of control
And shooting your vagina gets old
When your mind breaks along with your soul

Your womb’s swelling like you’ve got gas
But a breech baby’s head won’t pass

If he’s transverse you will not last
You’re in ruins

One, twenty-one cunts
Spread out your legs, lube up your thighs
One, twenty-one cunts
Kick up your feet, point to the sky, aimin’ high

Did you try to aim on your own
When you felt it slide past your bone?
Did you spread your legs out and fire
Launch your baby and then see it, drop like a stone?

When it’s time to live and let die
And you can’t get another try
Something in your belly will fly,
You’re a weapon….

One, twenty-one cunts
Spread out your legs, lube up your thighs
One, twenty-one cunts
Kick up your feet, point to the sky

One, twenty-one cunts
Spread out your legs, lube up your thighs
One, twenty-one cunts
Kick up your feet, point to the sky, aimin’ high

Cat Shit One Geta4s Early Figurines

furryne.ws - Thu 5 Aug 2010 - 16:20
"Boy marketers don't waste any time do they? It's barely been a few days since the debut of the Cat Shit One series and there's already figures planned out for the market. These here appear to be some sort of limited edition deal and as you can see the detailing on the weapons is spot-on. Then again, given the appeal of these cute killing machines I'd say plushies are in order. Give me elite trained special ops rabbits that I can hug."
