Posted 3 weeks agoOctober 14th, 2015, that was the day I realized I was a furry, its different than what I expected, I was excited for it, but I don't have anything planned, I'm even late on announcing it, but..here i am, I guess congrats, hope you're all good, cheers to 10 years
Art Dump and Dirt Cheap Story Comms
Posted a month agoHey, its been a long time since I've updated, and I wanted to try and add some stuff I've gotten in the last server months to try and update this page so its more up to date, but it will be a little slow to make sure I have everything
Also I'm kinda low on money, last month and this one have been kinda rough money wise, and I need some help, so I am willing to try and write SFW stories for $1 for every 250 words (rounding down), I just ask that you DM me your idea, and I'll let you know if I can do it or not, and that you use Venmo since thats the only money transferring app I have, any bit would seriously help, thank you for your time peeps

Name update
Posted 6 months agoHey, I decided to update my name to something more fitting of me and I finally got to doing it, I haven't used this site much, but I should dust it off and use it more
Possible story comms?
Posted 7 months agoHey guys, I wanna see if anyone wants a cheap story comm, as long as its not too complicated and sfw, shoot me a note or something and I'll see what I can do (I should note i only use Venmo)
Back on FA
Posted a year agoHey guys, I guess FA is back which thank somebody that its back, I don't wanna leave this place, I thought it was gonna go down before, but now I'm feeling reassured that it'll be staying up despite Dragoneer's passing
Goodbye Dragoneer...and possibly FA
Posted a year agoI never really talked to him much, but...still what happened completely sucks, and with the possibility this site might shut down unless it gets some serious help, I think Im gonna try and share some other platforms I use to try and keep in touch if need be

July 2024 update (money issues and story comms))
Posted a year agoHey...I had gotten news that I will be losing 12 hours at my current job which significantly drops how much I can earn and it might compromise my living situation with the family, so I wanna create this journal. I wanna try and open up possibly making story commissions for others for a fair price, we can negotiate what'd be fair though I wanna try and see if anyone's interested to help, I only use Venmo though if that matters, any help would be appreciated. I hope you all have a good night
Birthday 2024 and small update
Posted 2 years agoHey guys, I've been quiet for a while but I'm alive, I just wanna say that my birthday is exactly 1 month away, ill be hitting the big 25 years, quarter of a century, crazy to think nearly 10 years ago I joined the fandom. Anyway I plan to go do some bowling with the family.
As for update stuff, my jobs been stable and been paying the bills, though this winter has been kinda rough with lack of sales for some family's business (mostly just selling stuff they make like aprons, candles, etc), and there's been roadbumps like a recent vet bill taking at least $200, and other small bumps.
So, I was thinking about taking story comms. As long as its SFW and not too complicated, I'll try and write some small stories or edit some stuff if you want and depending on how much work I do I'll ask for a small fee (I use Venmo if that matters), im not a professional but I have some experience writing so hopefully someone accepts, I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you all for reading this update, hope your all having a good 2024!

Almost time for my birthday!
Posted 2 years agoHey guys! It's almost my birthday (February 28th), and well..I don't have any big plans for it sadly, so...I hope your all having a good day!
Potential Story Comms
Posted 3 years agoSo..this is a late night journal, earlier in this month I was suggested that I could make some story comms to help get some income, this month has not been the best financially, somebody Im living with hadn't gotten the best luck selling stuff, one weekend because almost nobody showed up, I made some choices on the side of one of my toes that lead to needing some antibotics and ointment to try and help it out, while waiting for a surgery to help finally fix it, and because work hadn't given all of my paycheck (the first one of the month because I missed a day, and the 2nd of the month, which is today because I didn't claim sick leave for a day, so that took at least $100), so..
I decided that I could start making some story comms, maybe $1 for 100 words? (I don't know the average for this site as I've never done this before), I use Venmo, which admittedly I don't really know how to link to, though once I figure it out and I get a comm, then I guess thats all set? Hopefully this all makes sense, though please try not to overwhelm me too much, I also have limits on what I write, though it's better if I hear out the idea then I'll decide or not and see where that goes, thank you all for listening and have a good night
Edit: I should mention I've been on again and off again writing since 2014/2015 on my spare time, so I have some years under my belt, it's better if I do more situational/contained stories, though I may accept some bigger ideas that go deeper down if I'm confident I can pull off the idea, so we'll have to see!

October 2022 journal update
Posted 3 years agoHey guys, its been a couple months since I made a journal, I wanted to talk about some things, mostly about my job and money.
In July I started as a dishwasher at a business thats giving like $15 a hour Monday to Friday, and I make $1000 every 2 weeks (as I get paid about every 2 weeks or so), and it's been going decently, though in a way I'm kinda just coasting along according to one of the bus drivers on the commute back had told me, and while I'm not really asking about ways of getting a better job for this journal, I want to make more cash in general (the last couple weeks have been kinda rough, I had to miss 2 different days to make sure my toe gets better and get prescribed some medicine and ointment, and I lose like about $200 if I miss a day, which is certainly a blow to the wallet, plus some shows my mother have gone to in order to sell some products haven't been the best either [she makes stuff like pins, candles, bathbombs, aprons, and some witchy stuff])
I was thinking about maybe eventually starting to ask for a small amount of cash for some cheap comms (since I'm not a professional and my skills aren't super great admittedly), I don't know frequently that will be, and I don't really know how to use Venmo all that well (I only have that and the SchoolsFirst apps for bank stuff), I've also been suggested Kofi, though I have no idea how that works either, suggestions are welcome!
Either way, I just want to make a little more so I can help around the house some more and try to save up for the future so I could move out into my own place
Thanks for reading everyone!

Persona vs Fursona
Posted 3 years agoHey guys, its been a couple months, recently I had a discussion with a friend about personas and fursonas, and I've had Jack for the longest time to represent me, and while thats not really changing, I've been thinking about making a "proper" fursona to also do the job, I don't really have any ideas yet, though I'm open to ideas and what you think about this potential future addition
Request Journal
Posted 3 years agoI've hit a bit of a creative ditch and I need some ideas to practice before I potentially go on another multiple months long artists block, I'll try my best with what you want, try and keep it reasonable and not too complicated
Happy Birthday (to me)
Posted 3 years agoAs the title says, today is my birthday indeed, and while its still kind of a chill day, I'm still happy to celebrate it and show that I'm still alive and well, hope you all have a great day
2022 Birthday Journal and Life Update
Posted 4 years agoHey guys, its been a while, months even since I made a journal, though I wanted to give a bit of a update, like how I plan to upload plenty of art onto my page, though not all at once, just like over the month, including a possible new design...
And of course theres the birthday part, which is on the 28th, it isn't gonna be a big celebration, though of course I look forward to it
As for saying what else otherwise...I don't really know what else to divulge, since my life's been kinda unexciting for the past 5 months, so...hopefully my next journal won't be as long of a wait, have a nice day everyone!

Asking for some ideas
Posted 4 years agoHey guys, its been quiet here, which admittedly its my bad, Ive been mostly lurking here, though I think I have something I could bring a discussion on, Ive been developing multiple characters as of late to possibly bolster my roster, so if anyone has any suggestions, let me know, I might just add them to their story

He's a Shiny Goodra from Norway, though decided to explore the world to expand his culinary skills to impress his family, especially his Snorlax father and bigger (age and literally) brother, and friends with Dew
Tank Waverider -
He was a normal shark who worked at a beach, until one day when his town was attacked by Heartless, while he was able to evacuate alot of people, sadly he didn't make it, he became a Ferocious Fins Heartless. Though one day he was given back his mind, though not his heart, so he is still stuck trying to get back to normal, so now he works as a new chef at a sushi shop, hiding his Heartless identity to try not to scare people
Tsuyoi -
He is a Emboar from the late 1500's Feudal Japan who was a former soldier until a battle against Nobunaga's forces early on in his conquest almost wiped all of his soldier friends. He fled the scene and wandered the wild for years on his own, taking odd jobs to survive, being haunted by the memories, though one day he meets Nozumo Usagi, who was able to use his powers to clear him of his hauntings and now he protects him with his life. After a few adventures together, they were sent to the future unexpectedly while helping others escape from a future attack that was predicted and sent to the modern age, now they live together still adjusting to the new world
Nozumo "Kakyu" Usagi -
Nozumo is a Cinderace from the 1500s who became a Onmyoji to help people across the land with his prayer powers. Though one day his teacher fell under the Tengu curse, and he had to flee the scene, wandering the land doing what he can with his limited powers, keeping up good spirits as best as he can. One day he came across a troubled Emboar who was being haunted by spirits of fallen soldiers, and while it took a strong effort, he managed to clear them, and now that Emboar, who said his name is Tsuyoi, and he was given the name "Kakyu" since he was litle a small fireball, not that strong physically, though he burns bright. And after the incident with being flung into the future, he lives with Tsuyoi and is looking for a new job since Onmyoji aren't really a thing anymore
Typhlosion/Oni Hybrid (no name yet) -

Fox turned part fox/part gold noodle dragon (no name yet) -
This fox is a treasure hunter who found a old temple with very old treasure, including a cracked golden dragon statue, though as he touched the statue to collect it, the spirit of a old Golden Long Dragon possessed him to change him for stealing from the old temple, though they were too weak for the full change, they were only successful for a partial change where they become a Fox Gold Long Taur hybrid, with his fur becoming a dirty gold, and while he still likes to collect treasure, sometimes he also wishes to protect it, which can leave him torn on what to do

Today is my Birthday!
Posted 4 years agoAs the title suggests, its finally my birthday! :D
A quickie journal
Posted 4 years agoHey guys, I know I promised to make something for my 50th submissions here, and I have something in mind, though I havent got it done yet, I apologize. I have been....unsure how well it'd turn out, though I swear I'll try and do it before the end of the month, while also posting some things I should've posted about a couple months ago.
Update to 50 Submissions idea
Posted 5 years agoI've finally decided what I wanted to make, I'm not sure how long it'll take, though I was inspired by some things that happen today, and try and combine them in some meaningful way that makes sense
Birthday at the end of the month
Posted 5 years agoSo...I just remembered that my birthday is on the 28th, kinda forgot after the world became bonkers because of stuff, though I'm kind of excited, even if its not a big celebration, at least its something nice to think about
One away from 50 Submissions
Posted 5 years agoSo...this is a bit random, though I'm trying to swing back into my practice of drawing, what should I make to celebrate 50 submissions here?
Rp Journal
Posted 5 years agoI decided to make a less serious journal, if anyone wants to roleplay something just for fun, note me or something, then we can try and make something
A quick one
Posted 5 years agoI know alot of people are saying this already with their journals, though I feel it must be said, if your a Trump supporter, dont like BLM, or LGBTQ+, then please leave
5 years since I began
Posted 5 years agoIt's been 5 years I started my journey of being a furry, I started being one since October 14th, 2015, I was in the middle of a depression that had lated since late February/early March, and I had pulled out soon out from it, and the next year finally got closure. I started my journey on DeviantArt (yeah, I know, I was still a teen and didn't know FA yet), and after a few months at least I finally found out about FA, I was a quiet person, not really talking to anyone, mostly viewing stuff, until May 23rd of 2016, it was a ordinary day, until suddenly the whole site crashed, and I lost access to my first account, and with no way to get it back, I made a new one, this current one, where I decided to become alot more active with talking to fellow furries like me, and here I am now, with alot more friends, knowing alot more about the fandom, though I am still young, and have a long ways to go to knowing and exploring more there is to come.
Now, I wish I could say I have something planned for my 5 year anniversary, unfortunately, I do not, I have not been successful on getting a job yet, especially with this pandemic and lockdown, though I am content for now, soon I will be able to get one, I am sure, as I've been reassured with enrolling to a job helping service, and maybe I can get something out before the 6th anniversary.
I want to thank you all for looking at what I made, for what friends made for me, for talking to me, for laughing with me, for cheering each other up for me, this community means so much to me, I want to thank everyone for such a opportunity to be able to meet so many people, and for possibly to meet more, you are all special in your own way <3
