Meme-time. My Fursona.
Posted 17 years agoTo the three people that might read this!
1 | What is the name of your fursona?
Ethan K. Wolfe.
The 'K' is for <censored>.
2 | Where did the name of your Fursona come from?
Well... it's a bit like my own name. Only, not quite.
And I like it.
3 | What species is your fursona and why did you choose that species?
He's a grey wolf, mostly because I've never seen myself as anything so fantastic as, say, a dragon or flying squirrel. He's very simple at first, but you can't possibly tell anything about him by looking.
4 | What color is your fursona and why? Hair/fur/eyes/etc.
Grey fur, as he is a grey wolf. Blue eyes, because my eyes are just about my favorite thing about me.
5 | What is your fursona's personality and how does this compare to your RL personality?
Hm. That about defeats the purpose of my self-investigative description for his race, dunnit?
He's generally good-spirited, artistic but tormented. In... a normal way. No DramaFur © here. Very long fuse, but a very large bomb.
6 | What is one item your fursona owns that is significant to you in RL?
Ah, the fedora.
An independent thinker, a free spirit, and an avid saxophone player. How could I not own one? It's the sort of thing that I think adds timeless style to anyone who deserves it.
7 | What is one thing you think you would say to your fursona if you could meet?
"...are you ever going to go on a date?"
8 | What is one thing your fursona would say to you if you could meet?
"...nice hat."
9 | How has your fursona changed over the years?
Not much. I should get on that.
10 | How long have you had this fursona?
Hum. Year? And a half? Not very actively until a month back, though.
11 | Would you like to be more like your fursona?
In that he is less creatively inhibited? Yes. In that he's about as lonely as a hydrogen proton? Meh... about the same.

Posted 17 years agoFirst of all, hello to the five of you that watch me, minus the few who don't care about this journal. It's nice to speak to you.
Second, I've come to a realization. I'm not going to get any watchers.
This is really okay by me, and I know why. I don't draw, sketch... any kind of visual art you can think of, I cannot do. Stories, sure... but does anyone actually click on those? Pah.
So, the only way to get people to watch me? Commmmmmissions. (To be read as Heath Ledger. If you don't get it, try it.)
I look all around, and what do I see? So many, many, many people whose accounts are rife with gifted and commissioned artwork. It's an odd sort of celebrity, I must imagine. Being known for your actions on SecondLife, Furcadia, various MUD's, or some sort of.... instant messaging. All the while, it's a Fursona that doesn't necessarily reflect you. Admittedly, we all do this to an extent. But to have fans praising artwork done by fans of a character you made up?
...still seems odd. Anyway, I won't be one of those. Can't, really. So hopefully, a single commission from Jijix (huge shout-out to him, by the by, that nobody will hear), might get people to read a story or two.
Rantfully yours,
Ethan K. Wolfe

This is a journal.
Posted 17 years agoSo... nobody's really going to read this, seeing as I have no watchers, seeing as all I have to show on this site is one story submission....
...but! I write anyway! Not much to say... I'm looking for a few artists to do a few commissions. You know, for character identity, icons, etc.
Guess that's it.
Oh! And, this is kinda long-term, but I'm looking for people who've gotten fursuits and are *extremely* satisfied with them. You know, so I have some perspective on which builders to go for.
