Hi all :3

Quick journal to say that in order to keep my gallery a bit more curated towards how I envision Chai as a sona, or myself as a furry, I've started moving some older commissions to the Scraps area! I will continuously be doing this as time goes on.

It's silly to wish that FA would have had any meaningful update since 2005, but I do wish we had an easily-accessible folder called "Archive" or something because "Scraps" as a term implies a sort of lack of quality or polish. This isn't true - there are some really excellent pieces in there and I'm proud to be a part of them all.

For the time being, this also includes the two fics I wrote back in June. I'm still really proud of those, too, and I invite you to read them, I just want to publish a few more so they don't stick out so much, and so I can display some growth within that craft! They'll rejoin the main gallery once that's happened.

I'm pretty constantly either writing or planning out fics, they just haven't amounted to anything I'd like to publish in a while. The time will come...

As an aside, my ongoing incarceration infatuation is. Really bad for my writer's block. I absolutely love reading prison fics, but I'm finding they're absolutely miserable to write! I love imagining myself being subjected to deliberately impersonal procedure, but hate trying to find ways to write it in an interesting way. It can and has been done though!

But yeah. Nothing I ever publish will ever be deleted (excepting external factors outside my control), and that's The Chai Guarantee. Growing up on the internet, there's been a great many images that I've loved but have become lost media because they were deleted at some point and I never bothered to back them up. That isn't going to happen here :3
