Wow this thinga so dusty ive gotta wipe it for cobwebs

Soma bit of apology is in order. Ive left this thing far out of date and thats just something I dont really do. It was never my intention to leave this thing just...dead, but its been dead for a reason

You see earlier this year, kr really to the last time I was active I was stuck. I was stuck in a job I didnt like anymore and I was stuck creatively. No matter what I did i just couldnt find anything worth writing about and even a story I so desperately want to tell was failing me. Work didnt help this, between being stuck in a place I wasnt having fun anymore and feeling stagnant I was just....wading. waring and hoping aomething would happen. Ontop of all of this my laptop kicked the bucket so there was nothing much I could really do.

So, I took a vacation, from everything. Writing, working, family, everything. Me and a group of friends went down to Orlando in July and I had a blast. I hadnt had that much fun in a long time and it really did refuel me, but without a laptop to write on I was still stuck. Fast forward to nkw and Ive got a new job, a shiny new PC and the want to be creative

So yea, thats wherr I am. Im sorry to anyone that I had lined up for a commission and just left higj and dry. If youd still want one then I would love to write for you.

Wow, 2016 went by way to fast, or actually good that it went by fast because it was a shit year

Anywho hello, this is everyone who reads these little note that I'm still alive, still writing and blah blah blah

I told myself I'd make more of a habit to keep in touch with stuff instead of just going MIA in places. I also told myself that this year I want to test myself. This year, I want to write something everyday

Yea, you read that right. Every.Single.Day

This doesn't necessarily mean towards fetish fuel writing no. Brainstorming, getting thoughts down. As long as word pad gets opened up everyday and something gets put down on it then I'm satisfied. Commissions, stories. Everything

There's also a certain writing project that I want to post here when I finish it, or start it. It's something different then from what I normally posts, but I can't think of any other outlet that I could post it to. I'll let you all know what it is when I post it, and when I do I would really appreciate feedback on it

Finally, I'm really close to 5k views. Like oh wow that's amazing. I'd never think I'd get that many people to look at my page, or get that many views on anything I've created, so thank you all for that

Hello Everyone. I figured I finally found a good spot to actually dust this thing off and let you all know that I'm still here, sort of

See these past few months have been really crazy for me, and well alot has been happening so I think I need to settle somethings now that things are starting to move forward

Well to start this off I graduated from college back at the end of August, early September. I wasn't expecting to graduate untill this fall, but apparently I had already filled all course requirements and ended up graduating with my degree in Graphic and Web design far earlier then I expected, go figure huh?

Since I graduated I figured I needed to celebrate somehow, luckily my parents were about to take a trip so I tagged along with them. It was a great way to celebrate, but we're still planning a proper party for me at sometime this fall/winter.

Between graduating and searching for jobs in my field something unexpected happen and I lost an important family member. It was...hard, and honestly I'm STILL trying to recover but I've definitely made progress.

So yea all of those things combined with a few car issues have really kept me from really being active on here as much as I use to be, but I'm gonna do my best to get back to where I was, like having a new story up HOPEFULLY within the next few hours or so.

Also to everyone still wondering about commissions Don't worry those are still open and will be for awhile I may never stop taking commissions and just sort of always be over. Now that school is done I need a kind of hobby/ side job to make some cash so why not? I know I've got a few notes sitting here and I'll be getting to those as soon as I get done writing this.

I think that about sums it up for now. I'll keep you all updated for future things/events

Gonna reopen for commissions for the month of September. Didn't have any last month but I'll see what I can pull in this month

I'm also going to be cutting prices. My quality in stories has been declining lately, and as such they need to be reflected.

5000 word stories-35$

4000 word stories-25$

3000 word stories-20$

2000 word stories-10$

Quick Write, One offs, Speed writes-5$

I think I'll keep these prices going forward and I'll update the form later with proper prices, but for now ignore that entirely and focus on these prices.

Also, if interested, I don't have an issue streaming the quick writes if people would like to see that process. Honestly having people watch me write would probably make me be less lazy and focus on writing more. Send me a note through FA or DM on twitter for more information

Hey guys. Just dropping in to let everyone know I'm still here, actually just sort of returning from a writing break. I wanted to set some time aside and not do anything writing related, which includes brainstorming a million ideas and not writing them down.

Now that I'm back I'll be uploading more often and be around more, also remember that commissions are still open for the month if you're interested http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7668023/

Thanks for your time, and here's to getting back to work

Yep! I'm opening commissions back up. The first time it went really well and I figured I've done a good enough job lately to open them back up. We'll start with 5 slots and open up more as we go.

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

You can either note me here, or send me a message over on Twitter. The link below is the sort of terms and services I run by, really a code of conduct if you will

https://docs.google.com/document/d/.....it?usp=sharing

At the moment I'm only going to take up to 3000 words and no speedwrites. This is my break from school and I want to enjoy it. Please respect that

I've almost emptied out my backlog of story ideas. Ive got about 3 or 4 left that I knew I need to write out before I move on to anything new. Also after these are done I will more then likely open up for story commissions. I know it's been awhile since I have but the one time I did it went pretty well.

Here's a document about how commissions will go do'd and donts for all those that are new https://docs.google.com/document/d/.....it?usp=sharing

If you haven't already you can keep up with all of my foolishness on twitter @ https://twitter.com/BiggMammaBear

So hello everyone, how are you all doing? I've been alright. Life is life but things should be settling down soon, and hopefully I get over this laziness kick I've been on lately.

nyways the point of this journal. Would people be interested seeing a stream of me writing? I've heard people do this before but never really thought about it. My laptop isn't the strongest thing and she's really about to start running on her last few legs, but I thought that if I had an audience of sorts I would be more prone to getting work done. This would also give me a reason to work towards a stronger setup and do more streaming stuff in the future, like streaming games and what not

So this whole issue going on has opened my eyes to a couple of things. I can't speak for others, but FA has never really done me wrong till this incident, but this lockout basically kept me on mute for awhile, and even deleted a story that I had to go back and reupload

So now here is where we are. FA is still going to be a site I use, and quite frequently at that, but I'm also going to be trying to set up my own personal site to archive my stories so that way this won't happen again AND I'll be spreading myself across other furry sites as well

https://beta.furrynetwork.com/geniose/
https://www.weasyl.com/~geniose

And ofcourse the twitter is still there for all those that want it. I'll update this later with more information and places to find me

Hello folks, how are you all doing?

I don't nearly update this as much as I probably should, and I'm not gonna say I will cause I'll only be lying

Anywho, first off I pssed 3000 pageviews, which in my eyes is kinda big. I never thought I'd get that many, especially with the quality of writing I've been putting up. The last few stories could have been a lot better, but due to constant sidetracking they all fell shorter then what I could have really made them out to be. For that I apologize cause theres no reason for me to be that lazy

Speaking of stories my backlog of them has grown way to big. I'm sitting on about five stories that are somewhere between a quarter started and half finished. More then likely they'll end up as scraps, or be turned into something else. I've been running into this problem quite a bit really. I can chug out story ideas like clockwork, but actually writing them down and creating them is a different story, hehe.

There was the idea of that flash game to. Unfortunately that got put on the backburner and will more then likely be scrapped. Between work, school, and a lack of understanding I don't think I'll be able to create something I'll be truely happy with, atleast for right now. I may try and pick that idea up again later in the year after I graduate college, but for now it's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay in the back of the noggin. In it's place though I have an idea for a sort of story series of sorts. It'd be seven or eight parts and would all have the same consistent theme, what that theme is I haven't decided on yet, I've got alot of different themes in my head, but just not sure which one to go with.

Finally I got my car fixed, or more of fixed as much as I can get it right now. Literally the old girl is just chugging along now, but the radiator is fixed, so I can travel a bit more. I want to try and go to a few cons a bit outside of Tennessee if I can, but that's here or there really.

That's really it, be on the look out for more things and what not.


Wanna see more from me or wanna follow my thoughts?

https://twitter.com/BiggMammaBear

or you can find me on Telegram and Discord now, Geniose.

I rise once more!

Nah, but Ive been ok. Lifes thrown somethings st me that I just had to take care of, and a lack of motivation to write hasnt helped. I do have stories that I havr planned to write, but there have been so manu roadblocks that keep popping up

Thats not really an excuse, and for that I apologize for the lack of contemt and activity. Im almost sone with school for the trimester and Ill have a week long break before my next set of classes, hopefully I can get something done in that time

Uh, what else...oh! Ive recently been thinking of doing a text based game of sorts. Theres a severe lack of some and Id love to give my hand at writing a story for one. If anyome had maybe some adbice or pointers to.put me in the right direction Id love them foreeeeeeeeeever

It's come to my attention that alot of stories don't get much attention here, which really sucks cause there are ALOT of people who can really write

So I wanna change that. I know visual sastisfaction is important, and if anything, all things art are primary for FA. Well writing is a form of art, so there's no reason it shouldn't be as noticed right? I wanna change that a bit. I wanna upload stories that are, well, good. Amazing. Good enough that they get just as much attention as any piece of visual art can get. The task sounds kinda daunting, but what are goals without challenges?

So, hows everyone New Years going? I hope you all are doing well and that lifes treating you alright so far.

I took a bit of a break from stories so I'll be updating more regularly(whatever that may actually mean.) so been on the look out for more of my stories. I'm trying to fill up with a bit more diversity so I'll try and upload not many things that are alike.

Which...sort of brings me to my next topic. I'm in a bit of a bind financially, nothing to major actually. I'm like...a few bucks in the read, but I do get paid soon so it'll clear right up! Only...to get destroyed by rent. If possible I'd like to do a sort of emergency commission type thing to keep myself up ya know? Again I'm not to disturbed by this, this is life and money hardships come and go, I've experienced it for the past two years now so I know how to work around it. I thought I could help myself by taking on some commissions, so if you're interested in one let me know or sort of spread the word around, I'd really appreciate it!

Finally, my big resolution this year was to be more social, in life and online. I've always been someone to stay in the back and talk here and there, but I wanna change that a little. I would love to talk to someone of you and maybe find out why you're even watching me, hell I might even make a few new friends along the way.

Oh, and I've made a sort of commission policy with prices, will and wonts and what not. If you are thinking about commissioning me I'd greatly appreciate if you gave it a look

https://docs.google.com/document/d/.....it?usp=sharing

That's about it. I hope we all have a great year together

To start this off Im actually a little behind. For Nanowrimo this year I pledged to write a certain amount of words. I wa ted to write in the ball park of 25,000. Adding up all of storiew I wrote last month I was actually close to my goal, still tallyin the total

Now moving on. First I want to thank ya'll for welcoming me. Ive been more of an onlooker into the furry community for years. Ive gotten nothing but support and love from those Ive interacted with and I really want to thank you all for your comments.

When I decided to start uploading stories I never expected to get any views. Writing was just a hobby I liked to do, so knowing there are people out there that like my hobby it really makes me glad.

Im hoping to do better in the new year, not only with my writing but art as well. I want to learn how to draw, but it just hasnt clixked for me. I havent given up though. Anyways thank ya all so much. Heres to next year

Holy shit it's almost December. Feels like it was just the start of the year and now we're basically at the back part of 2015. Feels like the year just shot by, but hey that's life

Well, my time for the rest of the year is short. Between work, school, and life issues I don't have as much time as I thought I would to write longer stories. From what it looks like everything I submit from this point on is gonna be no less then 3000 words, which includes commissions. I'd rather not have to put a limit on that, but I have priorities and my studies do come first.

So from this point on, and untill probably the start of the new year, my word limit on commissions will probably be 2500. Depending on the idea we can play around with it, but I unfortunately have to do this

I type this up, wakin from a food coma

I hipe all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, or maybr its just a normal Thursday for some. I hope today was a good day regardless

Bit of an update for me, things are alright. Sadly I wont be going to MFF, but theres always next year and other cons. I still havebt been to a furry con but if there anything like anime conventions Im sure I'll enjoy them

Commissions are still open, and'll be open for a good minute. Im not in need of money, but i like writing and communicating with you all

Other than that...thats it! Hope you all have a wonderful Holidays

Thank you everyone. I'm honestly really happy to see that I've got 100 watchers. I never believed I'd get so many when I started off posting my writings. I'm glad you all have stuck around for the ride of my weird...talent lol

Really guys I really appreciate it, even if most of you won't see this is means alot to know there are people that enjoy my little hobby. It's always good to know that it's enjoyed by atleast a few people

I had set a bit of a goal for myself, 100 Watchers and 1,000 pageviews before the year was over with, safe to say I reached that. Again thank you thank you thank you

Also a reminder that I am open for commissions if you want a look at the prices or what not look http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7186929/ <- there.

I'll keep working on getting better at writing, and posting stories that all of you can enjoy

So, yes despite my own confusion I will be opening commissions from this point on, and they will go as follows

Speedwrites: A quick run off between 500-750 words for 3$

5$-1000 word length

10$-1500 word length

15$-2000 word length

20$-2500 word length

25$-3000 word length

Currently I don't have any intention of doing any higher then that word count, but I'm a very flexible person so we can discuss it if you want something a bit more lengthy, or if you feel as if the price for what you want I can bend a price or two. I want to do this for you all, so instead of flat out saying no I can't when you're paying me we can discuss it over a note, e-mail, telegram whatever

So with that being said, if you want a story done by me, send me a note and let's get talking

I know this is a topic Ive brought up before, but there are quite a few new of you so I'll bring it.up again

Would anyone be interested in getting a story commision? The pricing wouldnt be anything to out there, somewhere between 5-20$ depending on word count and what not

I feel like looking through my gallery, and the views and.favorites my stories are likable, but are the enjoyable enough for you to wqnt one about your own fursona and what not

I told myself that I would write somewhere between 25,000-30,000 wods for Nanowrimo this month. I'm on a steady course and I'm feeling good about the last couple of stories of written.

Also you can ignore this, just bumpin that old journal cause it was blehhhhhhhhh

OH, and I'm gonna be opening requests and commisions sometime this month, I'll write something up later with details for commisions, but send me a note on a requests and we can talk about it

The time change is doin a number on me. Im waking up earlier then Im use to and its throwin me off zzzzzzz

In other news its Nanowrimo month! Lots of writers writing so I,ll do my best to upload quite a number of stories during the month so I ask you all to look out for them, and if you have a request I might start opening up to them

Ive also recently gotten quite a few new watchers, hello and welcome! Im glad you decided to watch my progress.

I think thats everything? Oh yes commissions. Im working on how to set them up and how I wanna do em so that should happen soon

Im still mulling it over about commisions. I think I have enough time to between work, and school but I wanna make sure everything is affordable for you all and in away that works for me. At the moment heres what Ive been thinking

2$-500 words

5$-1000 words

10$-1500 words

15$-2000 words

With my own writing ability in mind I feel that those are.fairly accurate. I know I can get a story done in a short amount of time and have it be enjoyable, but Id like to hear peoples opinions

So has the title suggests I've been pondering the idea about doing commisions to keep my writing up. I've gotten alot of favorites over my stories the last few days and I wanna see where the interest is.

Right now I'm thinking nothing too expensive, I mean these are just stories after all. 2 or 3$ for a simple 500 word one off, maybe 5$ for a 1000 word story and then probably go up in intervals of two from there, 7 for 1500 9 for 2000, again these are numbers and they're flexible to work with.

I'm really interested in hearing feedback on this idea, currently I'm takin a bit of an artistic break, I did upload arounf 5 or 6 stories last week, expect some more stuff later in the week

As the title suggests, I want to thank everyone that has liked a story or watched me this week. I honestly didn't think I would get so many favorites or would get as many watchers that I did and I can't thank you all enough for it. Really it's nice to know that my stories are appealing to someone, and that some of you found them inteesting enough to watch me and see where I go in the in the future, like I wanna hug all of you immensly

Speaking of the stories that I wrote in the past five days or so those were a bit of a test for myself. To see how much I could push myself to write for consecutive days and see how well the quality declined or increased. Personally I felt that each story was as well as I could create with the allowed time I gave myself, except for Ghosts n Grubins, comin off a 10+ hour work shift and being physically sore and tired had just had me runnin on E, but I still feel like the story was decent for it's word count, ideal, and above all time it took me to write it.

I really wanna know what you all thought of the stories, like which ones wee the most interesting and what idea you thought was the most entertaining. I as a writer love things dealing with a magical/mystical aspect so most of my stories do tend to revolve around that theme. I'll post more stories later with different themes and all but expect those more then often

Finally I've been mulling the idea over of doing commisions, ofcourse I still think personally I still need a little more practice but I've been thinking about the process. Say...5$ for 1000 words? Seems reasonable with how fast I can type out a story and all. with increments of 5 and being 5000 words being the most I think I would be able to write for commisions at the moment, 25$ for 5000-6000 words. Again it's an idea I'm just thinkin about off and on.

Again I can't say thank you enough. Through out the entire week every favorite a story I got or every watch made me smile like a complete goof, thank you all so so much

I think I'm finally back into the swing of things with my writings. The last two stories I'm really porud of that I was able to write them in the span of a couple hours and they were both decent. With that in mind I do think I could take a few requests or anything that anyone might want. As you can see most of my stories have a mystical/magical aspect so theres a chance that the requested stories will follow a similar trend

If you wanna request something note me and I'll see what I can do
