Rainfurrest 2014
11 years ago
Rainfurrest was amazing!
Half of the writing track panels were in a suite on the fourth floor, so I got do my reading in a cozy room with a comfy couch and arm chairs. People seemed to enjoy both the Doctor Who inspired short story that I read and the sample of Otters In Space 3. A lot of people asked about Otters In Space 3 and also whether there will be a collection of my Shreddy short stories. I talked to the FurPlanet guys, and I think we have a hand shake agreement that they'll release a collection of my cat short stories at Rainfurrest 2015. It'll be half Shreddy stories and half other cat stories. I'm pretty excited about that. As for Otters In Space 3 -- I'm working on it. It's hard to say how long it will take, but I certainly came away from Rainfurrest feeling charged up and excited to work on it.
I think that all of the panels I was on went really well. I got to meet a number of new people, some who I've been getting to know through the Furry Writers' Guild forums, and also people that I haven't had a chance to see since last Rainfurrest. I'm glad that I'll get to go to FC this year, so it won't be quite so long.
Another notable event of the weekend was the Coyotl Awards Ceremony -- it was a special double ceremony for the awards from both 2012 and 2013. My husband was the moose-ter of ceremonies in a tux and moose antlers. We aimed to make it classy but also casual and fun. I think it successfully hit that note. We even had a couple of the winners there to receive their awards.
The biggest news of the weekend is that Teiran of FurPlanet asked me to take over as the new editor of ROAR. I've already opened submissions with a post to the FWG forums. Hopefully, there will be a more official announcement on the FurPlanet website soon. I'm super excited.
So, with that, I have a bunch of writing to do! I should probably get to it.

A cat stories anthology? Colour me interested! (Also, would your Dr Who-inspired story be available anywhere?)

Unfortunately, my Doctor Who-ish story is still being shopped around to sci-fi/fantasy markets. *fingers crossed* So, it could be awhile before it's available.

Though... You'll be at FC, and maybe I'll do it for my reading there. I'm guessing there's not huge overlap between the people who come to my reading at RF and at FC. So, you might have a chance to hear it then.
