Dear Diary,
I've been seeing everyone else doing this, so I decided, what the hey, why not? Also, I really apologize for not finishing that "Ask Thunder" thing, so if you guys would like to ask those questions again, i'll gladly answer them!

How did you come up with your fursona?
How I came up with my fursona... well, let's see. I came up with my first "Maria" when I was around twelve, because I saw some of my favorite artists had fursonas, and even though I had no idea what a furry was at the time, I thought it was a cool idea, since I love animals. So, my first couple versions of Maria were a somewhat "sparkly" canine, in a sense, since she was orange and bright brown. Her design stayed largely the same for a while, except for "Jess", a totally different fursona I came up with when I was first creating Maria, but other than that, she stayed the same for about a year or two. I developed the shapeshifting idea during this time, because I felt I didn't really fit in to just one animal, so I made her house-cat form, her tiger form, and her fox form (which I don't use anymore). I then had a large change of heart, because I wasn't very fond of all the bright, unnatural colors anymore, and changed her design almost completely to a brown border collie, and besides a few minor edits, she's stayed the same for about 2-3 years. However, recently, I've decided to make her main form a panda, since I am more like a panda than a dog, but I do love border collie Maria, all the same. Her forms now are the panda, the dog, the tiger, and the house cat. She can shape-shift in to pretty much any animal, though, and I did have a couple pokemon forms for her, but never used them.
Interesting idea. I usually stuck to one at a time, myself, and meant to only ever have Leon, but eventually I grew to more.
Yeah, I don't think I could ever stick to that, though, haha. I have so many character and story ideas, and I'll admit, I have way too many. It is difficult to give each set of characters the attention that you'd like, not to mention keeping track of all the characters, but I find it refreshing to have a couple stories to work on. So, when I'm not very inspired to work on one story/set of characters, I have a couple more I can work on that will keep me busy and inspired until I temporarily run out of inspiration and so on. It helps to keep things fresh for me. Also, you can only put so many ideas into one story, which is another reason why I have so many.
You should get on Skype more, I miss you.
