FurCon, FurPlanet, and Many Stories
13 years ago
The last several months have been incredibly busy and filled with exciting things. First and foremost, I can now officially announce that
FurPlanet has picked up my previously self-published novel, "Otters In Space," and will be releasing a shiny new version with a beautiful cover by Doc Marcus at Further Confusion! That's right! "Otters In Space" is a FurPlanet book now! It's already available for pre-order through their website: http://furplanet.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=562
Since Further Confusion happens to be on this coast, I'll actually be able to make it to the debut of the new edition. In fact, I'll even be doing a reading at FurCon on the Sunday at 1:00pm in Willow Glenn I. I plan to read a preview of "Otters In Space 2" and let the audience vote on which short story to follow it up with -- because that was really fun last year. The options this year will likely include avian sci-fi, equine fantasy, and rodential horror.
In other news, I've had a surprising number of short stories published this fall. The Anthropomorphic Dreams Podcast released recordings of Rekindle the Sun, Gerty and the Doesn't-Smell-Like-a-Melon, and Shreddy and the Zomb-dogs. I had a story about a robot published in Daily Science Fiction. And the very first issue of Allasso, a new furry zine, featured the very first piece of short fiction that I've written in the Otters-In-Space-verse: Fetching Asteroids.
Overall, this year has gone really, really well, due in no small part to the furry fandom. It has been amazing to discover such a great group of people that shares my most core interests. Thank you all for being furries.

Congrats! Wish I could be there for the reading, but there are still all those dumb square states in the way between here and California. Hope it all goes well. (And I need to make catching up with the podcast one of my New Year's resolutions...)

I wish you could be there too. I'd love to have the chance to meet you.
