Missing Content
Posted 5 years agoI know a lot of people will have questions for me about this, so I wanted to make sure all of you know what's going on.
Recently, Fox's account was temporarily suspended. The reasoning given is that someone reported him for posting live action pornography (as opposed to the drawn pornography that makes up half the site) to his page. The video in question was one that was posted on both his and my page at one point - a fursuiter stripping down to their undersuit. Fully covered with no nudity or sexual contact (actual or implied) - just doing a striptease. After appealing the decision, word came down that FA considers ANY live action content that is meant to arouse to be full-on pornography and a breach of the site's ToS, whether it's legally considered pornographic or not.
I disagree with this decision on multiple fronts - according to FA themselves, violations should have been met with warnings before a page is suspended (which did not happen); according to US government regulations, this is no more porn than a Sports Illustrated swimsuit magazine would be; I constantly see ads for actual porn (GrowlBoys, etc) on FA and they don't have a problem with that; and to suspend someone who's been active on FA for years and depends on it for income for a questionable violation with no prior warning isn't exactly a nice thing to do. I'm furious.
But at the end of the day, it's FA's decision on what they want on their site, and I depend on them just as much as Fox does. I literally can't afford a ban. So I'm removing all video and photo content from my page - all submissions that contined links (except links to my patreon, where the content is allowed without issue and has its own age verification process) will have them removed and will be moved to scraps. If you are/were a patron and want a copy of the links from back then after it's gone, the best I can do is point you there, and hope you can still find those links - I will no longer link any fursuit content that even IMPLIES that I have a sex drive to FA. Between this and FA's (thankfully reversed) decision to ban sexualized audio, it seems the comic is really going to have to be my main focus here.
Of course, even saying anything about this carries its own risks... but I don't want to just abandon all my content without at least explaining how I feel about it.
FA, please don't kick us while we're down and ban me too. Life's hard enough without all this.

Fun stuff...
Posted 6 years agoThis winter has been a bit harsh, but we're coming through as strongly as we can. We spent most of the season a little under the weather and terrified about keeping ourselves financially solvent, but hopefully the spring will bring new opportunities and a chance for us to get well and keep our productivity up. My RP sessions have been selling well enough I don't really write down the slots on FA anymore (oops), and I think my computer problems are mostly behind me so I can record again~! In addition, we've got stuff in the works for regular guest stars and an expansion to our business model that should lead to some more intense content than I usually put out. Sadly, it won't make it to FA - but I can always drop some hints about how to access it. I also gave Fox an idea for a sale to run, and he's going to make it happen: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/30467042/
I love you all, and you'll be hearing more from us soon.

Thankfulness
Posted 7 years agoThings are finally starting to level out here - I can walk again, I've been productive, and I feel like things are looking up. We still have issues - it's getting to be the tight part of the year, and our health hasn't been perfect - but I feel good. And a big part of it is you.
Yes, you. Whether you're a patron, a watcher, a friend, or someone who just randomly clicked here; I want you to know that I'm thankful for you. You help us reach our potential, help us chase our dreams, help us survive. But more than that you remind us that for all the strangeness in us, we're not alone. We belong. And so do you. Thank you for your acceptance, love, and support. My only desire is for all of you to be safe, happy, well-fed, and comforted this weekend.
I love you all.

I Was Mistaken
Posted 7 years agoI thought our lives were crazy before... Yeah, no.
I started the month normally enough. Not feeling amazing physically, but doing what I can. By the middle of the month, I had what I thought was a minor injury. Within a week, I couldn't walk. It turns out, heel spurs can happen at any age, regardless of activity level or lifestyle. My doctor said it would go away on its own, and that if it continued for long we could treat it.... So I spent the rest of May unable to walk. Thank goodness for having content saved up for my Patreon peeps.
Just about when I was able to function again, our water heater went out. Landlord comes in to get that taken care of (after a crazy cleaning session while hopping on one foot), and all seems well. Until I got a letter in the mail a few days later. Turns out he's about to sell our home, as he's getting on in years. We have no idea how long we'll have until we have to be out, or even IF we'll have to be out, as there's a chance the new owners will want us as tenants.
AND THEN, just days after getting over all that mess, my PC's hard drive goes out. WITH AN HOUR OR SO OF UNRELEASED CONTENT NOT BACKED UP ELSEWHERE. Yeah. Fun times. I managed to get a replacement drive for a reasonable price, but it'll be weeks before everything's back the right way.
And one last thing - I found out one of my old links to formerly exclusive content instead leaked my ENTIRE work drive. So a few hundred people who looked at my FA got to see all my exclusives. Thank you to the honest gentleman who let me know so I could correct it. For those who clicked on it and got to see everything, I hope you enjoyed it. I'm not even mad - it was my goof and if I wasn't me, I'd absolutely have taken advantage of it and downloaded everything. The link was immediately changed, obviously.
I did have some good stuff happen as well though - we got some much needed help through all the crises and some very nice birthday gifts sent my way (which with all the drama lately I needed a pick-me-up). Some of that will actually end up featuring in future content here, though the rest is NOT FA or Patreon-friendly, I don't want to get myself in trouble for doing that kind of show :) I'm okay; I can kinda walk again and will suit again once I can wear my heels, my computer is running again once I can find the drivers for all my peripherals and my mic, and I've still got the most amazing people on the internet cheering me on. I can do this.
Anyway, when I thought that 2018 can't get more unpredictable, I was very much mistaken. Never bet against the universe; it always wins.

April Stuff, Part Deux
Posted 7 years agoUPDATES: Edited the original post for clarity (I must have been really tired when I wrote all that)
Hey all, just giving a quick update on some things:
First off, last month was my three year anniversary on FA! Holy shit, right?
I've been preparing for another visit from friends to shoot more sexy content; between that and a few other things (which I can't talk about quite yet), I've been busy. I really hope you all like what I've got planned.
I asked for help from a few close friends deciding how to manage the posts I make from Patreon. I feel like posting something once, and then changing the submission info once it's out of early access doesn't work well. People don't really interact with a link to a patreon page unless they're a patron, and by the time it's out of early access most folks forget about it. I've been thinking of posting things a second time once it's out of early access, giving people a chance to see it fully on FA without having to dig for it (just a single submission with a link to the folder that contains it all, not like I'm posting every photo individually like I used to). Any thoughts? I'm going to post the stuff that goes full access in April once I either get a few replies, or before the middle of the month, whichever comes first.
Lastly - to all who watch me, comment on my stuff, or send me notes and shouts; thank you. The world can be a lonely, unforgiving place - but every message I get, every watcher, every fave or comment - they remind me that we can all find a place we belong. I love you guys so much!
NEW STUFF:
I'm back from doing my shooting. This last few weeks has been emotionally and logistically tough for us, so we didn't get as much done as we expected. Still, it was a good chance to get some snuggle in, and shoot a couple of really great photo sets.
Fox had another round of medical trouble, but it looks like a round of antibiotics and some rest will clear it up. I'm really hoping we can get at least a few months of smooth sailing to kind of catch our breath, this whole "crazy life-threatening things one after another" routine is getting old.
Be on the lookout for a few new developments, including:
Twitter! Fox has been showing me a bunch of awesome people who only (or primarily) use twitter for a while, and he's trying to convince me to use it myself. So, maybe? EDIT AGAIN I'm LinaPilchard
Reposts and Reorganizations! I need to clean up my FA folders and reorganize a few things, so I'll probably do that soon, along with reuploading some of my content that's gone into full access so people can see that it's ready rather than making people dig through my old stuff. Yes, I know it was supposed to be the middle of the month. Sorry :C
Wishlist! I've gotten a lot of private requests for gear or outfits they'd like to see me with that I don't currently own, so I think I'm going to post a wishlist somewhere so people who want to choose what I wear or do know they have a way to make it happen. I don't know how - maybe FA, or possibly an outside site - I need to talk to some of my other friends who do this kind of stuff and see how they manage it...

March Update!
Posted 7 years agoHey all, I'm finally done recovering from a marathon of shooting! I had two mystery guests join Fox and me for some shenanigans, most of which we filmed~
Long story short, I should have plenty of content for the next few months, ranging from stripteases to petplay, from fursuit snuggles to my latex vacbox.
In other news, Betty's Unboxing Pt 1 is full-access! Go check it out if you like mummification and fursuits
I'm also going to start posting new exclusives early in the month rather than late in the month, at least for a while - so keep your eyes peeled, things are going to get fun!
Love you all, and thanks for reading

New Year, New Me
Posted 8 years agoI'm finally feeling better. Our dietary adjustments aren't easy, but I'm feeling better than I was and I think the worst is over. I'm also starting a workout regimen to replace the physical activity I lost when I left retail. It's punishing, but I feel like I'll be able to make it.
2017 was a hell of a year. We got Betty out of beta and ready for her full release; We started the RP hotline and my Patreon so we can afford for me to make sexy content regularly; and despite illness and car trouble and living in an ever more uncertain world we didn't back down. 2017 was the year it all began but...
2018 is the year we make it all work. Fox and I have big plans, and we want to let you all in on them. I'm back to work fully starting now, so watch this space - things are going to get interesting.
I'd love to hear what you'd want from me in the new year - leave a comment here and answer my poll - http://www.furaffinity.net/view/26030798/
I love you all, and I want to know what Fox and I can do to better meet your needs.

Illness Update
Posted 8 years agoAs many of you know, I suffer from chronic stomach problems. I had a flare up just after Christmas, bad enough I was sure it was going to be hospital time. I've been unable to do much of my work to finish the month, and Fox has prohibited me from wearing my corset until he's sure I'm back to normal. I'm basically on a soft food/liquid diet for a bit, and when I go back to normal food I'm basically going to be eating nothing but vegetables and a little bit of meat.
I was starting to get better for a bit there, but then my family treated me to lunch and I went right back down. Is it possible to develop a food allergy as an adult?
In any case, I'm not dead and I'll be back to work soon... god it feels like I have to say that an awful lot. I gotta figure this out.

Holiday Cheer!
Posted 8 years agoHey all, just wanted to give you a little love today
This season is always super stressful for us, so I've fallen behind. I know, so uncharacteristic of me, right? >_>
Anyway, I'm still going to have some more content up before the end of the month so be on the lookout. I'll also be returning to audio stuff here and there when I have time. That queue isn't going to clear itself, after all.
As always, I'm thankful every day to have your love and support. You make every day more pleasant just by being around. Whether you pledge to me, comment on my posts, or even if you just lurk on my page - no matter how you're here and why, I'm glad you are.
If you celebrate, enjoy it! If you don't, please know that I wish you warmth and comfort anyway.

New Developments
Posted 8 years agoSo it's been a hell of a month - 70+ photos, a video (which will be posted pretty soon), and a bunch of planning for some cool stuff coming down the pipe. Going forward, here's the plan:
Poll for both my general watchers and my Patreon people
Catch up on my voice queue, both RP and Audio Dramas
Shoot December's content for Patreon
???
Profit
I've been super productive lately, and I think I'm starting to get used to being my own boss. Hopefully I can keep the momentum going through the holidays and into the new year.
As always, thank you for the love and support - Fox and I are forever in your debt.

Betty Begins
Posted 8 years agoBetty is ready! After two years of planning and work she's finally ready to shoot with. As a special treat for all of Betty's fans, this month's content (and much of the content going forward) is set in-universe. That's right - what we're shooting actually fits into the FNaB/FNaB2 timeline!
This month will feature three photo shoots:
Week 1 is Betty's Unboxing Pt 1 - Betty is shipped to an unsuspecting collector - watch him remove her from her shipping crate and layers of tight black plastic wrap
Week 2 is Betty's Unboxing Pt 2 - Betty is ready to be dressed and activated - watch as he helps her into her outer body for the first time
Week 3 is Betty's Unboxing Pt 3 - Betty puts herself through a number of poses to confirm everything's working right.
This month will also feature a short video:
Week 4 is Betty's Unboxing Pt 4 - The collector starts to understand the gravity of the situation as Betty's higher functions come back online from storage
All of these will be exclusive to my Patreon - the photos for $1+ patrons, the video for $5+ patrons. I hope you enjoy what we've made as much as we enjoyed making it

September Update
Posted 8 years agoWe've had a crazy month. If you've been following us you know that in addition to Fox's ongoing health concerns we had a major financial emergency, and nearly ended up without power. I believe we're close to being completely caught up, and the outpouring of love and support we've received has definitely helped keep our spirits up. Thank you to everyone who donated to our fundraising animation!
In other news, I'm recording audio for FNaB2 - Episode 2 this week, and it should be ready to post before the 1st.
In other other news, the Betty suit has had some delays - mostly centered around keeping my sewing machine running. Despite my best efforts, it's started making really scary noises and I can smell a burning machinery smell from it whenever it's running. That hasn't stopped me though; I'm doing as much as possible of the finishing work by hand. The zipper just went in, and I have a friend who can run me to get the fittings for the limb attachment points. I've also set the themes for the next several months of my Patreon content. Most come from my survey in July, but a few are special requests from my friends and fans.
My apologies about the lack of new content - Once I've shot some Betty suit content, I will switch gears back to voice. In addition, we've finally run out of guest content and shoots from TFF, so we're contemplating opening up auditions both locally and online for people in the fandom who might be willing to help. As an alternate option, I may start making two Betty videos a month - one with general pin-up themes and one that's a little more hardcore and fetish-related... but that will be up to the feedback I receive from my first photos and videos, as well as my Telegram group.
In other news, I'm recording audio for FNaB2 - Episode 2 this week, and it should be ready to post before the 1st.

July Poll Results!
Posted 8 years agoAs promised, here's what my patrons want to see from me:
Q1 - I'm still trying to finish Betty's bodysuit, would you rather see more content without it, or should I wait to post until I have her fully fluffy?
Although I had a few high level patrons want to see more content even if she's not finished, the vast majority didn't mind either way, and most of my lower-tier patrons said they'd rather wait a bit longer and see her fully finished. I'm still going to try to finish her asap, but it's nice to know that no one is really upset that I'm taking awhile.
Q2 - When I'm back to my normal schedule, what kinds of shoots would you like to see?
The winners among the high tier were shoots with a lot of themed elements and a mixture of different expressions of sexuality and kink. Among my lower-tier patrons, the winner by far was suit-up and suit-down videos, layered costumes, etc.
Q3 - What about artist collabs? Did you like my current one, and would you want more of them?
The overwhelming winner for both tiers was that the collab with Bose was a resounding success. It was well-loved, and only a few people said they don't want more collabs like it in the future.
Q4 - What about new content?
The overall impression was that more content was desired in general. A few want me to branch out, offering a role play group on Telegram, more streaming, etc. However, most people just want more updates, regardless of what it is, and I understand that. While I'm still figuring out the bodysuit I haven't uploaded any photo sets and I'm not happy with how that feels.
Q5 - When I'm shopping for new stuff for Betty, what kinds of things should I buy?
My high tier people want more set pieces and decoration, as well as suit-sized bondage equipment. The lower tiers want the bondage gear as well, and quite a few of them want costumes and themed outfits.
Q6 - When Betty's body is done, what should I do for my first big shoot?
I'm doing several small shoots and bundling them together, just my way of saying thank you to those who kept supporting me while I haven't been producing as much content. The overall winners were:
"Unboxing/Review" A parody of tech reviews, in which someone buys, unwraps, and assembles a Betty bot.
"Unwilling Suit-Up" I will be tied and blindfolded, and Betty is forced on me piece by piece as I lay helpless
"Betty's Plaything" This shoot will be from the perspective of someone who hires Betty to dominate them.
Thank you to all who answered my poll, and if you'd like to get in on the next one, you should consider becoming my patron on Patreon. I need your support and feedback because it helps me afford to live, and the feedback helps me become a better content creator. You'll also get access to a bunch of fun content, so it's a win-win!

Summer Stuff!
Posted 8 years agoSo here's what's going on lately:
Started posting polls for my patrons to help me determine my content for the next few months, and the answers surprised me. I'll be posting the full analysis at the beginning of August.
Working on Betty's bodysuit, and I'm struggling with the fabric. Fox chose nonstretch fur for the color, but range of motion is going to be a problem if I want it tight enough. Still trying to find a solution. I'm hopeful, but trying to be realistic as well.
The collab with Kiba went really well, and I'm thinking of doing another one with him before long. My most ambitious voice project to date, it has about 20 different tracks mixed and edited. It's probably my most comprehensive and immersive soundscape, and I'm really itching to do more of that particular theme.
Had to edit my Summer Sale ( http://www.furaffinity.net/view/24155559/ ) for clarity, hopefully it makes more sense now. <3
Fixed my old exclusive video post - http://www.furaffinity.net/view/24011343/ - we had uploaded to Vimeo, but apparently sexy content (even G-rated sexy content) is too much for their sensibilities. I understand where they're coming from, even if I hated having to reupload everything.
And finally, I quit my day job. With the lack of reliable transportation, most of my pay ended up going into my Uber driver's pockets instead of mine. In addition, I just had an old debt come due, and they're pressuring my employer to garnish my wages - which means that by the time I get my check, all of what I would have kept is gone. I'd literally be working 20 hours a week for free. So, I put in my resignation. I've had that job for almost a decade, and it pained me to ask for the paperwork. But I feel like I made the right decision. So, my new job title is officially "voice actress and fetish model" - not where I expected to end up, yeah, but it's been amazing so far. I just hope that I can continue to express myself through my work, and that people enjoy what I do.
I love you all, and I hope you're doing well. Thank you for all you do to support us

SIGNAL BOOST FOR A FRIEND
Posted 8 years agoHey, one of my friends is really struggling right now. He's stuck with a huge back rent bill after his roommate fell behind on their portion, and his landlord wants to start eviction proceedings if he can't raise the money. He needs it by Wednesday, so it's urgent AF.
He's a writer and artist, so he's willing to work for whatever help he gets. If there's anything you can do to help him, he'd be glad for it!

goldlinaricSorry for the image dump!
Posted 8 years agoHey all, just giving another update -
First off, March 2017's photoshoot has passed into public access! YAY~ In addition, I'm finishing work on Betty's bodysuit this week, which means the May and June shoots will feature Betty in all her fluffy glory!
As you can gather from the previous sentence, May's shoot was delayed - if you dropped support for me in May because of it, let me know and I can get you the full set of photos once they've been taken, cleaned, and uploaded.
Also, work is continuing with my queue, and I'm almost caught up! Still waiting to post everything for now, as I'm still tweaking the new setup for edits and effects, but at least the raw files are almost all recorded. Also - no stream tonight, but I'll set up a schedule for regular streams soon.
Thanks again for all your love and support; you are the reason we do what we do

Patreon Changes Incoming!
Posted 8 years agoOkay, so it looks like Patreon is cracking down on raffles - several artists have had their accounts shut down and locked out. I heard about it secondhand, but I'm not taking any chances. Patreon has been good to us, and I'd like very much to keep them happy. All references to raffles are being removed from my Patreon page, and new pledge tiers will be adjusted over the next week.
I'm so sorry to have to shut that part of my page down, but I'm not risking my livelihood over this. I promise I'll make it worthwhile for all of you to stay, at least to the best of my ability.
In other news, I had a breakthrough with my recording process, and my turnaround time may be greatly reduced. Long story short, I should be able to get caught up and get back to making sexy happen on the regular.
