2020 was about the friends we made along the way 🙂
Posted 4 years agoJust kidding lol! It was about other, worse things. But now that I'm officially one year old, I am legally obligated to write an indulgent anniversary journal about the past year. I won't talk about my metrics though because I think it's boring.
Instead, I'd like to take a leaf from FakeMan's book by sharing some of the things I've been thinking about and ask you what's been on your mind as well. Most of the things that are on my mind right now are fatfur-related, but you can have other thoughts as well. That's what the mind is for. It's for having thoughts.
Do you feel like you "belong" in fatfur? I started engaging in fat kink on BellyBuilders, which is this old phpBB forum with decades of discussion about big human men. It's pretty great. But the stories subforum there essentially consisted of 2-3 40-year old guys writing similar stuff. I joined fatfur proper this year and it was like, BOOM, holy SHIT, people are really horny! My story Kevin Gets Big, which was my egotistical response to how bored I was with the smut on BellyBuilders, now seemed weak in comparison. The story doesn't have to end at 300lbs! You can write about fat guys who are bigger than houses and who hypervore other guys with their hyperschlongs, and stuff! Crazy.
The thing is though... I feel more dwarfed and alone here than I did on that old insular forum. When there are so many different interpretations about what makes fat interesting, horny, and worth thinking about, and when there are seemingly no places where everybody gathers and speaks on a level playing field, it's hard for me to feel connected to any communal purpose. As antiquated as forums are, I think they did a better job at creating stability than places like Fur Affinity, Twitter, and Discord. But were things really different before, or am I just nostalgic for a time I never fatfurred in? My dream place on-line is a forum where fatfur writers can commune and indulge, elevating and critiquing each other's work for the greater purpose of horny expression... How do you want to engage with fat kink? And on what platform? Do you feel a sense of belonging?
Art is Pain? I've been thinking a lot over the past year about what I want from my creative process and from the art that I make. I've come to the conclusion that I have no fucking idea!
There are two wolves inside of me: one who wants to drool over the things he loves because it feels good, and another who wants to howl and whine for people's validation because it feels good. These are two hopelessly stubborn wolves. Their names are Stupid and Fuckup, and they are stubborn because they have retreated so completely into their separate dens that they can no longer reconcile with each other, like a married couple. Feed one and the other comes for my throat. Open or close my work to interpretation and my whole sense of self implodes. It's like The Beginner's Guide.
I'm convinced there's some way to grab these wolves by the tails and force them to cooperate. Maybe they won't ever be civil, but at least they won't sic their fangs on my jugular and eat me like a kebab. Are these two wolves inside you too? How do you react to their misbehaviour? And how do you feel about making art?
What social issues have you been learning about over the past year? I've been following the IndigenousX Twitter account and reading about the history and experiences of Indigenous people in Australia. Did you know that there's been over 400 Aboriginal deaths in custody since the 90s? The police and prisons are very racist here in Australia. There's been a big push over the past four years to institute the Uluru Statement of the Heart, which is a 3-step process to give Indigenous people in Australia autonomy over their lives and land and future. It's a really direct solution that prominent Indigenous elders, academics and activists support, but even our most left-leaning party doesn't respect it, and our prime minister is more interested in symbolic gestures that don't really move anything. Isn't it awful? Follow IndigenousX, it's run by a new Indigenous Australian person every week!
Directly relevant to this kink, I've also been reading about fatphobia. I haven't read enough to comment, but I think it's important and interesting to think about this stuff when engaging with fat kink, if you haven't already. What stuff have you been learning about? What's important to you and what do you find interesting?
What's some cool fatfur fiction you've read over the past year? I've read a shocking amount of stuff I enjoyed! Like...
* Kill, Marry, Fuck by Rangavar, which is maybe my favourite thing ever. Cute burgeoning gay dragons, one's fat, the other's a bean, there's WORLDBUILDING that doesn't make me want to sleep and a genuinely captivating conspiracy about a strange laboratory. Please read this story. It's a great story.
* Heroes: An Interactive Story by Draconis Stormdancer is a choose your own adventure mystery about a fat superhero in spandex that is currently ONGOING. You could vote for what happens next RIGHT NOW if you start reading. Get on this. He writes decadent, plump bellies that you just want to KISS.
* Ordering Out, Eating in by Doran is just big hungry wholesome bliss. Imagine having a bunny boyfriend so cute you just want to TASTE him and put him in your BIG BELLY. That's what this story is. Doran writes gentle, intimate, creative gold that gives me life and you should read him! Read him NOW!
* Harker's Breakfast by Jarby makes me melt into a puddle and blush so hard that I evaporate, my water vapour ascending to the heavens, then raining across the countryside and giving life to grass and flowers and bees. That was a metaphor. A metaphor for Ejaculation, because let me tell you baby this story HAS IT ALL. And by all I mean a fat guy who drinks his fatter bovine friend's milk in bed for purely straight bro friendship reasons in a magic university. Can you smell the petrichor? And by the petrichor I mean the Cum? Read this story? Read this story.
* Have you read Rehabilitated by Tonykat? Because holy shit, sib! IMAGINE: a reformed pred comes back from pred rehabilitation, only to live with a 600 POUND HOCK OF HAM who leans into his preyness out of loneliness and desperation. What could POSSIBLY GO WRONG? Imagine reading this story. Then, imagine liking it. You can make that dream into a reality by physically doing it in real life!
* Read Kill, Marry, Fuck!
Wow! What have you read over the past year that you loved, fatfur smut or otherwise? Tell me this if nothing else.
Thanks so much for reading this massive thing, and thanks so much for reading my smut. What's on your mind? What are you thinking about right now? Write it in the comments or DM me!

✨Commissions Open✨ + Thanks For Reading!
Posted 5 years agoHey all. Big Belly here.
I've opened up again for 3 commission slots! $17.50USD every 1000 words. Note me, DM me on Twitter, or message me on Telegram if you have a horned-up idea you want depicted on the page.
More details on that in a bit. I just wanted to say thank you if you've been reading any of my stuff this year! The reception to the novel I put up recently has made me especially teary-eyed... If you commented on that story or messaged me about it, know that I was really happy to hear your thoughts. I'm excited to write more stuff for you. And if there's anything you particularly want to see, let me know!
OK so, here are the full commission details:
• $17.50USD every 1000 words.
• I'll definitely write gay fat stuff for you, especially with kinks I'm familiar with (check my thumbnails). I'd love to write other stuff for you as well, let's talk about it.
• Talk to me anywhere -- you can note me, DM me on Twitter, or message me on Telegram.
• I'll ask you for half of the negotiated payment up front and give you half of the story. Then, if you like it, I'll ask you for the other half of the payment, and give you the rest of the story. You won't pay for anything we didn't negotiate. Sound fair?
• We'll do payments through PayPal.
• I basically own the story I make for you. You can post it anywhere, as long as you're not making any money from it, and you credit me.
• Once I've written something, I can't make any big structural changes unless you pay me more money.
So: what kinds of stories can you harvest from this elephant's tusks? We're talking the finest ivory. We're talking, as non-exhaustive inspiration:
★ A 2,000-word vignette about how plump your sona is getting, like The Cleaning Crew. You just can't stop thinking about food, can you? For only $35, we'll double your weight and get you thinking with your gut.
★ A solid 4,000-word sexual feeding scene, like The Skunk and the Sky. Two guys, getting loose and impulsive around some food. Or your sona, who knows what they're hungry for, and exactly how to get it. All yours for $70!
★ A soft, sensory, 10,000-word progression story like Open Wide or Sea-Salt Ice Cream. Alternatively, use the extra room to really spell out how fat you're getting, or how fat you're making someone else, like Dan Has A Bad Day. Anything is possible for $175.
★ Get indulgent with a 20,000-word heaping serving of story like Dragon's Tooth, or an episode of Soften the Snep. Let's build a little world together and fall in love with some hot characters. That'd be $350.
Or anything else, really. These are just my ideas, maybe you'd rather blow me away with something new! Again, you can note me, DM me on Twitter, or message me on Telegram.
Anyway, I'm done shilling. Thanks again for reading, it means a lot to me. See you soon!
I remain,
Big Belly

Commissions Closed and Thanks!!
Posted 5 years agoHey everyone. It's me, Dr. Smut.
Thanks so much for reading and commenting on my stories over the past month. Seeing the reception to these things has been so rewarding and motivating. This has been my first, like, real foray into furry after a few years of lurking and I've felt really welcomed. Writing fatfur is genuinely some of the most fun I've ever had—right now I want to keep doing it for as long as possible; I have a personal story drafted and a couple non-furry stories I'll be furrifying and posting at some point, and I'm going to keep taking commissions because they're really fun. Speaking of...
Whoa!! I'm opening uptwo more commission slots one has now been taken!! they're all gone... I'll open up again whenever I want to.
Here's the gist: it's 0.009 cents per word, or $9 USD every 1000 words, where you cap it at a 1000-word limit. For example, if you request a 2000-word story and I write 3000 words, you only pay $18. Conversely, if you request a 2000-word story and I only write 1900 words, you only pay $17.1. Unless you tip, obviously. Does that make sense? I think it's very affordable.
I'm more than eager to write anything in the kinks list on my bio, but I'm probably willing to write other stuff too—just message me on Twitter or Telegram with the pitch or the kinks you'd like to see and we can chat about it. You can also note me on here if you like fake furry e-mail.
We'll handle half of the charge upfront, with the other half invoiced after I deliver the final draft. We'll do payment through PayPal. There's other stuff I'll need to brief with you but we can do that when we talk...
Here are some non-exhaustive ideas for commissions with tentative word-counts:
Maybe you want a short 2000-word vignette about how fat your sona is? Maybe they just can't get their mind off food, or maybe they find themselves rapidly putting it on and breaking out of their clothes after drinking a strange purple elixir... I don't know. That's only $18.
Maybe you want a solid 4000-word sex scene like The Skunk and the Sky? Plenty of room for vivid description and some really hot antics. Who knows. That's $36.
Maybe you want an 11000-word detailed progression story like Open Wide? You could go from a skinny thing to morbidly obese with the help of a hot guy, or get locked up in a basement and force-fed by a different hot guy. Anything is possible for $99.
Maybe you're insane and you want to commission me for a 22000-word story like Dragon's Tooth, with themes and a cast of developed characters and a lush world. Maybe, but I would be scared of you. That would be $198.
Maybe you literally just want a 2-word story that says "FAT [YOUR FURSONA SPECIES]" in bold Impact font. It'd be a beautifully formatted single page with plenty of white space for you to regret your decisions. Such a complex work would cost you a whopping $0.018, unless it's another damn fox sona again in which case the payment will be your screams of eternal anguish.
Again, thanks so much for reading. I'll see you in another couple weeks or so probably with another story.
Sincere regards,
Dr. Smut
