Commission slots full!
General | Posted 3 years agoSo that didn't last long now did it?
I think I have around eight commissions queued up right now, and they will probably keep me busy enough through October and November so I will have to stop accepting new commissions before I become completely overwhelmed haha. (I was kinda dreading I would be in this high of demand, but it feels nice to be appreciated like this as well)
Apologies if you wanted one but couldn't secure one in time, I'll hope you'll retain your interest for when I'm ready to take more.
Also thanks to everyone who decided to commission something from me this time, I've received lots of interesting concepts for all kinds of lewd stories and I'll do my best crunching through them in the following months. I hope that most of you have the patience to wait for me to start working on your spesific piece.
(If you contacted me before this post went up and I haven't replied back to you yet, do not worry, you are still going to get your story done.)

Commissions are back!
General | Posted 3 years agoI think it's about time I got these things going again.
Ever wanted a story about your OC being involved in steamy, sexy, or salacious situations? To read about that particular cartoon character you’ve had an obsession/crush on for years, being involved in something more adult? Browse excessive descriptions on how an ungodly amount of dick can possibly fit inside the limited space of another creature’s colon? Step into a world where every male climax possesses the volume and force of your average, broken fire hydrant? Or do you simply think a piece of art would deserve complementing short-story alongside it?
If your brain has ever been tickled by such desires then you’re in luck since I’m happy to announce my commissions are open again!
My terms are pretty much the same as before:
- 10EUR per 1000 words (unless you have a REAL big project in mind, might have to charge more, ask me about it)
- Will write pretty much about anything, please ask if you're unsure if I'm down to do your spesific kink. (Hard NOs: Cub, Scat, Diaper, gore)
- If you want a story involving characters/art owned by someone else, please get their consent for the use of their property in your commission.
You can take a look at my library for stuff/themes/kinks I've already dabbled in.
Feel free to contact me through any medium you desire:
email: 5pawscommissions[at]gmail.com
Telegram: https://t.me/Five_Paws
Discord: 5_paws#8484
or my PMs/Notes on SoFurry/FA
Now there is a chance I might get a surge of commissions right at the start here. Rest assured, I'll contact you as soon as I can and discuss your idea with you. Mostly have a tendency to work on a single story at a time, so it might take me a while to get to yours depending on how many comms I get, but I will try to get everyone their stories in a timely fashion to the best of my ability. And in such a case I ask for your patience, as I am just a single human being after all behind all these stories, and there are things in my life which take precedence over writing furry smut (as odd as that might sound)
Hopefully I didn't miss anything. If something was left unclear, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you for reading, and I hope I'll be able to write what you want.
(Will probably take a small break around christmas and stop taking new comms at the end of november)

Closing commissions for the summer
General | Posted 3 years ago^ Title.
So I've been doing comms for about half a year now abou 15 in total I think + some non furry stuff I haven't yet published. This year especially I have been hammering out stuff, I could say at almost 1k words a day pace, which is probably about double what I would usually write per day one year ago. This month has been my most active so far, and I have written consistently about 2k words a day for almost the entire month, which is crazy, considering that last fall I was felt REALLY accomplished if I got 1000 words out in a day.
So yeah, I'm happy to have gotten faster at writing, but that has also brought the creeping suspicion of 'am I able to keep up the quality'. I do get the feeling my writing has gotten somewhat stagnant, and that is never a good feeling to have. It will eat you alive.
This might be sort of a personal fault, but I think that doing commissions facilitates the stagnation of my writing as where I might at times simply work to fill the word quota for the story using simple/safe/familiar phrases to describe... stuff. And whenever I do, I feel disappointed in myself because I know I should be able to do better. DON'T GET ME WRONG I truly, truly, truly appreciate all the business I have gotten so far, and 99% of the time I greatly enjoy writing commissions as well.
One negative side of commissions is undeniably the stress that I self-inflict on myself. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. Of my customers has been extremely nice and I have never had a concrete deadline to meet when it comes to a story and I truly appreciate that. But being brought up in the -I would like to say- punctual culture of where I am from, I always aim to get things done as fast and as efficiently as possible, which in turn causes the stagnation I mentioned before + stress, little or a lot. Ever since February I think I've never had a day where I haven't been working on at least two commissions at once, at the worst point on five. And althouhg I know that there virtually is no rush, I put pressure on myself to get things done, done, done which slowly does wear me down. This is positively countered by the spark of joy I get whenver my customers tell me they enjoyed my writing (or someone comments that they liked it) and it makes it feel like it wasn't done for nothing.
So I will be closing down commissions for the summer, will probably reopen them in August or September.
I have a GARGANTUAN backlog of own ideas I have been DYING to write for a long while, some even since christmas, and I hope to tackle those during my "time off"
At the same time I will be aiming to improve myself as a writer, both in the methods of how I go about writing and the actual contents of the story and how they are expressed. One thing I have been (to my shame) putting off for a long, long time, that can and will guaranteed help me achieve this is that I will start to try and read more. Not just furry erotica, but everything in general. I am inherently a very lazy person (believe it or not) and I am a terrible reader. I have probably written more text in the last two/three years than what I have read (from other furry authors or "normal" authors). And given how many talented individuals are doing the same stuff I am doing, I would be, and have been an idiot to have missed out on learning from their stuff.
Part of the reason I don't read much furry stuff is because I have somewhat of an inferiority complex about my writing. That is not like me as a person at all, and I have no idea how I developed it, but I have. Whenever I would read a story from [insert a furry author here] I would only experience it as highlighting the shortcomings of my own writing instead of just taking it as purely a learning experience. And THAT is definitely something I want to change, since I feel like the right way for me to take a step forwards with my writing is to learn from those better than me.
Sorry for dumping personal insecurities on you like that. This might be also a starting burnout talking.
But yeah, I guess that is all.
Just to note that EVERYONE WHO HAS CONTACTED ME FOR THEIR COMMISSION BEFORE TODAY WILL GET IT DONE NO WORRIES.
Thank you for reading and a special thanks to the people who commisioned something from me!

Commissions!
General | Posted 4 years agoSo, after a long, long time of telling myself to do this, I have decided to try out taking story commissions.
I’ll try to keep this short and simple so first things first: Money. 10€ per 1000 words. Seems to be around the standard I’ve seen other people charge and to me feels quite reasonable. (Unless you have a story that is over 10 000 words long, then I might have to consider charging extra.) (My personal sweetspot is around 4-7k words but you’re the boss, so you decide the length) Payment through PayPal.
I consider myself a pretty flexible, open-minded person, so if you’re unsure if I’m willing to do a specific kink or idea, please, please ask, I’m always open to discussion. The worst thing I do is say “Sorry, but that’s not for me” and wish you a nice day. I have somewhat of a range of different kinks in my library already, if I have done one before, I’m most likely willing to do it again.
Some general terms:
Please own the characters you wish to be portrayed in your commission, as in your OC, or have permission from the owner of the character if it is not your own. (Not necessary for more well-known IPs e.g. Pokemon, Zootopia etc).
All characters above the age of 18.
Please feel SUPER free to contact me in FA or SF with PM’s, I visit both these sites daily so I’m sure to notice. You can also contact me at 5pawsCommissions@gmail.com.
I’m still new at this, but I hope I am able to meet your literary needs. I will most certainly try my best.
Thank you for reading!
