Sorry, I've meant to do this before now. Motivation continues to be a problem, and I've had stuff on my mind. Sooner rather than later I'll try to get my commissions from Fur the More and Anthrocon scanned, and then maybe finally get around to digging up those other stories of mine to get posted. (the biggest challenge there is that I don't have an easily-accessible digital copy of the published editions, so I need to dig up my final submitted manuscripts, do a quick comparison pass with my print copies just in case, and go from there)
Speaking of which, I enjoyed Anthrocon, there were a couple of minor issues that were on my end rather than the con's but it was still good to get out of the house for a weekend. If anyone's wondering what the con was like given the current situation (and thus possibly get an idea of what to expect for the near-future), feel free to ask whatever questions. I'm not sure what would be interesting enough to volunteer, or else I would. So feel free to ask!
Writing-wise, I'm still working on that anthology story. I've also had an RPG freelance gig pop up for a Trinity book called "Brave New Worlds." I was offered it right before AC and got my specific writing assignment during the convention, so I've been working on it as well as the anthology story since I got back. It's one of the reasons why I've been a little brain-frazzled, as I'm trying to make progress on both without getting too burned out, and both have some challenging material to write (fun challenges, I emphasize, but still challenges). It's helped that RL circumstances have held up my weekly Exalted game, as that's given me some extra time to work on them that I otherwise would have spent on game prep.
This does mean that aside from my published stuff I've been meaning to post, my furry writing is likely to be back-burnered for a little while longer. I'll probably get a little something down here and there on them if inspiration strikes, but there probably won't be any dedicated writing sessions probably until the beginning of September at the latest (based on deadlines for other stuff).
And, um... I think that covers it. If you've got any questions about the writing, or the con, or whatever, just ask and I'll answer to the best of my ability.

OP
It was good seeing you, too! I'm also glad you didn't get sick. I've managed to avoid Covid so far, myself. But some unpleasantness on the last day aside, it seems like the convention went relatively smoothly. Numbers-wise, it did well enough that hopefully that'll reassure more artists into attending.
