As many of you know, Dragoneer -the creator of Furaffinity- has passed away unexpectedly.

While I didn't know them personally, I wanted to take a minute to thank them for everything they did for the furry community, as well as what this site means to me.

I found Furaffinity (while searching for fanart of a furry character) and it quickly became much more than just a place to find fanart. My novel-in-progress was just a few chapters in at the time, and here I found many kind and talented artists selling adopts and taking commissions that expanded my cast and my story beyond a humble novel to a planned series of novels. I never dreamed I could have such a passion project to work on and enjoy, and it wouldn't have happened had it not been for the site Dragoneer created.

From the bottom of my heart I thank Dragoneer, and I hope he has found peace in whatever awaits us after this life.
