It's been a while, long story short I've decided that for the time being I'm changing my user page bio. namely the requests part since I'm not taking new requests right now.

You know what, forget my last entry (I'll probably have it deleted by the time I post this) I'm sticking around at least until I finish the comic(s) and requests I have left to do yet!
Now don't get me wrong I do plan on leaving this site but I don't want to go out just like that, I want to finish the stuff I've been working on instead of leaving stuff unfinished and leaving people feeling down because of it, and I want to give the friends I've made on here a proper goodbye before I go.

I've had to wait for 8 months but I've got my Android Tablet back now! I'm so happy, this will make it easier to get pics done and posted.

Hello folks, you know how a while back I said one of the hinges on my laptop broke? Well, now the OTHER one broke. I definitely need a new laptop now. I'll try to work on the art I have to finish if I can. But I may not be able to post anything till I get a new laptop. please be patient. >.==.<

As some of you may know, a few days ago I lost my micro sd card that had most of my furry stuff on it and the art/comics I've been working on. Well I haven't found it and probably never will, but I decided I'm NOT giving up!
I may have lost my sd card and may have to start over with some of the art I was working on, but I'm staying for now. That's not to say I don't plan on leaving in the future. but I'm sticking around for now. ^.==.^

I've been bringing my laptop with me lately and I'm using it to do the art I'm working on lately, but I dropped it the other day!
The laptop still works fine but part of the hinge broke and theres a metal frame around the screen that's bent causing the housing(the plastic around the outside of the screen) to keep popping open so it needs to be fixed.
Because of this the art and comics I'm currently working on will be delayed until It's fixed.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience, please be patient.

Hello everyone. it's been a little while since I last posted anything, I've been taking a bit of a break for a few reasons, Financial problems, getting sick TWICE, getting a PS Vita, and just not quite feeling in the drawing mood right now. I've also been playing Undertale on my Vita and I gotta say, that game is a masterpiece! I've also been playing Deltarune on my Switch Lite. I just finished the infamous "Snowgrave" route *shivers* (I think I might have to play chapter 2 to normally again now.) I'm definitely excited to see what happens next. I might do at least 2 drawings this month, maybe 4 not sure. but anyway, Happy Holidays! Marry Christmas and a happy new year! ^.==.^

Hello everyone. I just wanted to say that I have been getting A LOT of notes about requests and while I appreciate it that so many people want me to draw stuff for them, I would like to kindly ask that everyone please wait to send me notes regarding requests. reason being that I have several requests that I have to finish right now that I got awhile back, and because of that I have not been taking on any new requests. it's not that that I don't want to do them, but I have so many to do at the moment that I NEED to finish! so please don't send notes asking me for requests right now because I WON'T RESPOND TO THEM. When I'm ready to take on requests again I will let you know. until then, PLEASE be patient! Thank you, and God bless!

I've been considering changing my minions from goblins to kobolds.

what do you guys think? should I stick with goblins? or should I turn em' into kobolds? *pulls out a magic wand*
Please let me know in the comments section!

Does anyone know where I can find  midsummernightsdream? I remember him posting that he was shutting down his account but is he still on FA? If so please leave a comment with his new name/icon.
I would really appreciate it. I think his art is AWESOME!

Earlier today I got my first dose of the Phizer Covid vaccine, I'm hoping and praying I don't experience any side effects.

I've been looking up the vaccines for Covid and they sound a little fishy to me. I mean, a "Spike" antibody that becomes a permanent part of you and can attack 23 different kinds of things in your body BESIDES the virus? kinda sounds more dangerous than the virus itself! Now don't get me wrong, I want things to go back to normal as much as the next guy! but I'm not so sure about these vaccines...

Hello everybody! you might've noticed that I've posted a lot of art last month. Well, that's because I did the art for this month AND last month! That way I have more time to plan out the art for the next two months. (July and August) You see, I'm going to take a break from doing requests during the summer (with one or maybe even two exceptions) so pretty much all the art will be from my own imagination. each month will get 6 pics for a total of 12 pictures! So with that said, see you guys later, God bless you all! -Grinnym
P.S. I would like to ask you all not to be sending any requests for now! I have quite a few requests to do yet, so I would very much appreciate it if you could just wait for now to send me any request notes until I have finished the ones I still have to do. I will make a new journal entry once I'm ready to take requests again.

I guess I'll stick around... I just hope this whole Coronavirus thing doesn't get any worse, I saw  GillPanda's alien Sona with a mask on! (At least I think it's an alien...)

Hello everybody! I'm writing this journal entry to inform you all that I won't be accepting anymore requests this year! reason being that I've already gotten quite a few requests and with my current schedule (see previous entry for more details) I can only finish about 10 requests this year, and two of them are comics which will each take up a month to be done. and even then I'll still have 2 or more requests to do after that! so, with that said, I would very much appreciate it if I didn't get anymore request notes/comments this year. (if you send any I won't accept them) If you want to do Art Trades with me go ahead, but please know that it may take a while for me to fufill my end of the deal. once I'm done with all the requests I have now, I'll gladly start taking on new ones again. But for now I'm not. ...That's all I have to say. Your friendly neighborhood fatty dragon... -Grinnym

I know it's a little late to wish Happy New Year, but I wanted to anyway! and I also wanted to tell you all that My Birthday- or should I say 'Hatchday' is on January 28 and I will be doing a special pic for that day. Also, I'm changing things up a little this year. I'm only gonna do 1 or 2 requests a month! (although I do have 2 comic requests to do, but after that I think I won't be doing comic requests for a while) I also will be doing special pics of my own imagination during the following times;
March. (Commemorating my 1 Year anniversary)
Late June-end of August (My Summer Request Break)
August 8th (Bowser Day)
October (Special Halloween comic - NOT A REQUEST) I won't be doing any requests during these times, the art I post will be all mine! I hope you're all looking forward to my new art for this year, I can't wait to draw it all!
Sincerely, Your friendly neighborhood Fat Dragon - Grinnym ^.==.^

Okay, I know I said I was gonna close this account and that I wasn't going to finish :userCyberFox:'s Buddy Thunderstruck Weight Gain comic request. ...BUT I'M ADDICTED TO THIS SITE!!! I've decided that I'm here to STAY! And I WILL be finishing that request and all the other requests I've gotten so far! ...I just gotta find them in my notes again. >.////.< P.S. Does anyone know what Buddy's favorite Food and/or Drink is?

To everyone who's watching me or made a request.

Hi, I'm here to regretfully tell you all that I really am leaving Furaffinity and I am NOT changing my mind this time. I know some of you made requests and I said I would do them, and I know you've all have been waiting patiently for them, but I'm not finishing anymore requests! I'm really sorry everyone! especially  CyberFox I know I said I would finish your request, but I can't do it! This Fat-Fur lifestyle just isn't good for me and I need to put an end to it. And the only way I can really do that is by shutting down this account! I'm truly sorry about this, I hope you all will understand. I know some of you will be sad to see me go, maybe even angry. but I have to do this. If any of you have any art that I made for you on here, I would highly recommend that you download and/or repost them right away, because come New Year's It will all be GONE! So long everybody! I really did have a lot of fun here, and I'll miss you all.
Your friendly neighborhood fatty dragon. -Grinnym 😢

I've decided that I'm going to finish  The-Official-Meglacuda's request and maybe even  CyberFox's request too! will I stick around after those? I don't know. Maybe, maybe not. But I'll definitely finish Those two requests! stay tuned folks! ^.==.^

To everyone who is watching me.(or not)
I'm writing this entry to inform you all that I Grinnym... am leaving furaffinity, I'm deleting my account! the reason I'm doing this is simple. While I like doing the kind of art I've made on this site, I keep feeling like I could do better. and I'm not so sure that Fat-fur art is all that healthy for me. So with that said, I'm shutting down my account. I know I've gotten a lot of requests that I said I'd do (like the ones I mentioned in my last journal entry) but I can't keep up with them all! Just when I've gotten 5 requests done, I suddenly get 5 or 10 more to do! (I'm not blaming anyone for that, it just happens) It's been really fun, but it's also been kinda stressful too. I'm so sorry to everyone who's made requests to me, and I'm REALLY sorry to  CyberFox and  StarBladerHusky aka  The-Official-Meglacuda I know this must be disappointing, but between real-life, neverending requests, and very stressful and painful recent events. I just can't do this anymore! I'm very sorry to all of you and hope you all can understand and forgive me. ...I'm deeply and truly sorry. ...goodbye.
-Grinnym

Hello everyone! I just wanted to say that I'm currently working on two very special requests! the first one, requested by  CyberFox, a weight-gain comic starring Buddy Thunderstruck! the second one requested by  The-Official-Meglacuda, a muscle-growth comic starring.... Meglacuda! they'll both be five pages long,(I know that's a little short but to be fair I've never done this before) and I hope to get them done and out there soon!

Okay, now I am officially on my break. firstly I'd like to point out that I was wrong about the date for Bowser Day, it's actually on August 4th (Which is actually a nod to World 8-4 in Super Mario Bros). Also, I've decided to push the end of my break to the end of August. I still have 2 or 3 more requests to finish, after that the art I do will be all mine until the end of my break. I do have one more request that I'll do near the end of my break involving a certain Semi truck driver/racer I'm sorry for any inconvenience from this decision. I just want to slow down, enjoy summer, and work on my own stuff for awhile. That is all.
From your friendly neighborhood fatty dragon, Grinnym ^.==.^

More specifically, I'd like to take a break from doing requests. I'll gladly take and finish any requests made by the end of the month, but after that, I'd like to work on some of my own stuff for a while. (Pics with my Fursona/Dragosona, Vivosaurs, Quarg, ect.) if you can't make your request before the end of the month, please wait until after Bowser Day (I believe that's August 12 or 13) I apologize for any

Have any of you heard of "The Hypnotic Beast?" I saw his ad and checked out his site, he's got a few of his recordings that you can download (you have to right click and click save link to do it) I listened to his "Fat Dragon Transformation" recording, it was a little weird but also kinda fun! If nothing else it's good imagination fuel! Now if you'll excuse me, I have some hoard guarding and gaming to get back to! ^.==.^ BURRRP!
