So, I don’t have any new pictures or stories to post, but I do have a few things I wanted to talk about. First off, I just paid the last payment on my car, so now it’s fully paid off! That’s $189 less I’ll be spending a month (w00t!). Second, about two weeks ago, I did something I haven’t done in a few years and compiled a new playlist of Halloween music on YouTube. In 2017, I made a 13-track playlist called “j-rad’s Halloween 13” and that started a little tradition of me compiling a new mix each October. I made five mixes in all (with the latter four labelled Part II, III, IV, and V) before I felt I was running out of songs, but then this year I was inspired to compile a sixth (and final) entry in the series which I labelled “j-rad’s Halloween 13: The Final Fright.” Below, I’ve posted a link to the new mix as well as a link to a playlist that combines all six mixes into one.

Finally, while we’re on the topic of music mixes: for a while, I’ve been working on a playlist that began as a challenge to myself to see how many songs I could string together into one continuous mix, and after steadily building and tinkering with it in private mode, I finally reached a point where I saw fit to make it public. I call it “A Shuffle in Time”, and the final version (barring any potential upgrades) is 351 tracks totaling 23 hours and 56 minutes in length. In other words, it’s one Earth-day of continuous music! You can find the link below:

Anyway, that’s all I’ve got for now. Peace out and Happy Halloween.

And it only took me about 15 years to do so (or 12, if you count from my last submission here). But yeah, since I'm active on dA again for the first time in 4 years, I've decided to do something I've been meaning to do for a long time and begin dual-uploading my work to dA and FA. In fact, my most recent short story (and the pic I drew to accompany it) mark my first dual-upload, and I already have another pic drawn and ready to post. Part of this decision comes from me having my life more under control after the roller coaster the last few years have been (see my most recent dA journal entry for details: https://www.deviantart.com/j-rad306.....-me-1242783481 ). Another part comes from wanting to (hopefully) reconnect with some of my former fellow deviantARTists who've migrated to FA. In any case ... here I am. And I'm happy to be here.

# As a fox, I'd like to wish everyone a happy National Fox Day (which as of this writing is technically yesterday, but whatever).

This account never quite panned out the way I wanted it to (as evidenced by the fact that I've had it for over 3 years and have done virtually nothing with it). Nonetheless, I hope to eventually find the time to post more of my work here and, well, be a bit more active in general (especially in case any more of my dA friends end up migrating here). In the meantime, I'll just put up this journal (to replace my first one) and a new ID pic (to replace my first one).

See you 'round.

Hi there! This is j-rad306. You probably know me from deviantART (if you know me at all). Anyway, I wanted to join on March 11 to celebrate my 2nd dAnniversary, but I couldn't, 'cause registration was suspended (thanks a lot, FA). So, I figured I'd better join as soon as I got the chance again, and, well...here I am now. w00t! XD

Why am I here? To showcase my anthro art from dA (and possibly a few exclusives, who knows); to give my work a broader audience; to appreciate other people’s artwork (some of which is, of course, exclusive to FA); and to meet people (friends from dA, artists I like who’ve left dA, and artists I like who are only on FA).

Here's to fun furry times on FA. Peace out!
