Inhuman Acts - now for sale
Posted 10 years ago Stalking the streets after dusk is risky business, but some tales are only told in the depths of night. Crime pales against the cold, murderous motives of those behind it. Claws and fangs open doors for a twisted soul to find a means to an end. It's a deadly road spiraling downwards when the deeds done are Inhuman Acts.

Furtual Horizons - RF 2014 Annual Charity Anthology
Posted 11 years agoSo I'm off to Rainfurrest next week and it's an extra special one for me this year.
Our podcast
FangsandFonts is getting its own panel this year, so if you're a fan of the show or a writing wanting to learn more, please check us out. As well, check out the other various writing panels I'll be on.
The other good news is that I'll get my hands on my first published work (because the others I've been accepted to still haven't seen print yet, haha). My story "Cat's Cradle" is in the RF anthology - Furtual Horizons. I'm very excited for so many reasons. My story has an illustration done by Danika Jane (check out her website here: http://www.dcaden.com/default.asp). I get to be published in the same anthology as my writing friends
Voice and
Dandin And I get to go to the release party!
Hoping the whole anthology turns out awesome, I'm excited to read everyone else's stories. You can order a copy of the anthology here: http://furplanet.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=748 or pick up a copy at the con if you're attending. All proceeds go towards this year's charity - Cougar Mountain Zoo (www.cougarmountainzoo.org)!

5 seconds of fame!
Posted 14 years agoCondition: Red - Fun by the People, for the People
Posted 14 years agoI've been to a couple cons out there, most of them big so it was nice trying out a small con for once. Plus this was my first Canadian furry one oddly enough but it was a blast. Never have I seen a con that not only encourages drinking, but if you're a sponsor, but gives you an open bar :D How awesome is that?
Just a shout out to all the people I met while there. You're all great and it was fun getting to know you all! I'm used to being in a larger, centralized group of furs, but in Ontario, I'm finding much more small groups spread out over a wider area which made going to Condition so fun to meet all these other furs who are only an hour away!
I hope I'm in Ontario next year so I can return. I need to get my special badge I get next year with my custom title too. Hopefully I'll be back as 'High Roller Ocean'

Wow new material
Posted 16 years agoSo after a horrid night of memories that dragged me to emo-town and back, in which I didn't get to sleep til 4am, I ended up writing out the few entries I've had in my mind for a new piece of work I've wanted to write. I'm already getting critical about it so I should stop looking at it and leave it and let it be but I just have that critical thought process that it's not good enough. Either way I hope you guys read and leave notes, I like to hear feedback.
I think I need to commission some avatars or something as well as some icons for my stories. If I have any friends who want to offer their services I would greatly appreciate them :P
I should get back to work >_> I really haven't done a single thing all week.

It's summer .. well close enough
Posted 16 years agoSchools out for summer, I've moved into the city now and have a new job ^^
But best of all I have free time now. Sooooo looking forward to hanging out with people more and hoping to write more over the summer.
I didn't know I haven't been on FA in so long >< I feel so bad for the people I ignored >< Please forgive me. I'll be good from now on. Honest.
My friend Jesse wants to draw some of what I write but I don't know what to write. Any ideas people?

Should I do it?
Posted 17 years agoSo I want to go and make my 30 min stories for a large audience. I finally got in contact with the right people for my upcoming anime convention Animethon. If I was going to set up somewhere I'd join the artists alley and do my story writing there for people. They said that there are spots left and I could probably get one. Now I'm so nervous and unsure. Do I want to set up and write stories? Will people enjoy them? Will anyone come? Gahh I'm so tense right now.
The one's I've made for friends and random people have had some great results. But I'm unsure how it would fair in a much larger audience. Also what happens if I loose my powers of randomness and can't come up with anything?
I'm not sure if people will like it or not? On one hand people might not like it cause they already have a story in mind, thus why I make them pick random objects that do not co-relate to each other. Also, art is much quicker at gratifying it's customer then stories.
But I'm quite confident this has never really been done before, or hardly ever seen at that. So it would be something different so who knows the results?
What should I do?
