The Fool.
Posted 10 months agoWell, been a small bit. XD WELL! I've made a bit of a decision for myself. Gonna delve into tarot. Always had a bit of an interest in the occult and the like, figured I'd make this a decent start into the foray. Always of the thought such things can't be real and whatnot, though part of me had and does hope to this day there's some truth to the magic in it. Probably not, but could still be fuel to my smoldered passions. Tired of being so down on myself and feeling like it's pointless to do things due to my health and whatnot, so feh.
[Edit] Also, I apologize for always not responding to comments. I hate that I do that. D: Something I need to work on, usually, my mind goes blank or I think on it and then...forget.

Thoughts.
Posted a year agoI still feel lost on some things. Especially regarding what I want to do with my life. Don't want to. Be in retail all my life. XD ... But that'll be something to work on, maybe see on government jobs when they're actively hiring in areas I can actually attempt for (and not worrying me over waiving restrictions over being short-staffed >.>). But feh, I do feel like. I want to get myself more into something...artsy. I've withered so much here, I don't delved into artwork anymore, and I never even look at written works anymore, which pains me, feels like so much effort. Maybe just put myself on a long burnout, probably why I rarely write anymore. Though it's not stopped me from, like. Contemplating selling my poetry skills to others. Or learning how to weave. Or play an instrument. Though I kick myself on that because I'm also trying to pull myself out of this damn financial hole of mine and get my life at least starting up. Too many thoughts, though, too many thoughts. Hell, I've thought about becoming a witch and all that. I'm agnostic, but I'm also of the belief I NEED to see it to believe in it. But maybe I'm hindering myself? I dunno. Kick in the pants or something, feh.
Well, That Happened...
Posted 2 years agoUUUUUM...had my appointment today, see about info and shit regarding the whole transgender stuff... Did NOT expect to walk out and already be prescribed HRT medication. So, um. Yea, just torpedoed straight into things. Didn't...think things would move so quickly. Get to start on things ASAP, will start tomorrow so as not to have an uneven amount. Will...try to keep updated on things.
Big Update!
Posted 2 years agoHello, hello. Vixen from the grave. Again. XD
Just...lately, I've...been working on a thing. A little over a month ago, I found out...my insurance actually helps out with transgender care. Didn't...really expect that, but holy fuck. So, um. Went and got a referral from my doctor, and...well, Thursday, I have my first actual appointment. Transcare/mental health specialist. Like...I'm anxious and scared, but also extremely excited. Even better, there's an actual place this far south in Alabama that...actually deals with this. Hell, my primary doctor was shocked to find out there was a place. XD But yea, um. Hopefully, I...can actually tackle myself and move towards who I want to be. Actually start feeling better about myself instead of cursing my very existence.

Hello!
Posted 3 years agoSo, um. I finally got off my ass and whatnot and put up SOMETHING of a profile again. Not much to look at, though. Been so long, I can't even fathom something to put there. One day, I'll give it some meat, but for now, just something to get started with.
Since my last journal, I've been full time (seeing as I have not spoken up about that since). Fuck retail, fuck corporations, omfg, I've never been stressed out so much. And if I hear any more pretty words about how they want to move me up to team lead and just. Don't. I'm gonna scream. And latest developments with my new team lead now has me wanting to just leave the department I've been in for a couple of years. But that's drama for another time.
I obviously still don't write much. Just...too drained to even contemplate such things.
I eventually need to get myself off my ass and see a therapist. Have quite a few people in my ear about specifically checking about ADHD. Would be nice to have SOMETHING towards the craziness in my head, my lack of willingness to even do things I WANT to do. Just SOMETHING tangible. Even if it's just me being me instead of something wrong, I'd rather know so I can do something.
That's...just about it. I feel like I'm receding more than I did before, and it's aggravating.

I'm Alive! (Update)
Posted 5 years agoSo, it's been a while...nearly two years, to be exact. Dunno when I'll be fully back, not gonna make any promises; kinda just not so invested here anymore. I'll eventually re-fill out my profile to better represent myself~ For now, though, I'll probably just lurk until I have the urge to be lively again.
SO! For what's been going on.
-Still doing proofreading and such, but not so heavily. Kinda overdid it in that area and overwhelmed myself.
-Currently back to living in Alabama with family (oh, the dogs, ALL the dogs, my ears. @.@)
-Have a part time job (which will probably be full time in a month) at Walmart. One reason now why I'm kinda distant. Work as a stocker/zoner/unloader. Not the most difficult thing, but I'm not a physical person, so it leaves me drained.
That's pretty much it for the time being. I REALLY hope to eventually get back into writing. I also want to get myself into reading. Used to love reading as a kid, dunno why I lost interest in it.

Grievances
Posted 7 years agoOkay, so... For the past couple of weeks, I've been dealing with a bit of an issue. Mainly just gonna rant about it here, as just... Ugh.
To start with, I'll go ahead and say that I own land that was deeded to me and my family. Long story short, my brother, father, and I own parts of the land, as my mother sold her portion to my father after the divorce. Fast forward to now, my father wants to get my portion and my brother's. Last year, I stated I would give it to him, as he said it was for my brother, in case he needed the land for a house or whatever. I was emotional at the time, wasn't too long after his wreck, so I didn't think on it. Now, he forgot about that and even dismissed it when I brought it up. Started going on about entitlement and whatnot when I showed hesitation. Today, he tried to even get me to buy him out of his portion. No idea why, but seems backwards with as much as he harped about how important the land was to him. I dunno why he wants it, to be precise, but he won't be straight with me. And I find out that, on the warranty deed he sent for me to sign had the wrong address on it, so just... Ugh. Bloody hate this. Never really liked the man after all the shit in my childhood, but to pull this shit and thinking he can manipulate me and whatnot... Just...
This isn't probably the best depiction of the event in question, but gah, I've never been so frustrated in all of my life.

Grammar Stuff/WIP
Posted 8 years agoOkay, so... I've ended up skipping old pieces altogether since a bit of inspiration sparked and started writing something new. However, I've come over a snag of which I'm trying to figure out.
Wintry snow adrift the withered land, a
Wayward soul doth wander ‘bout its tragic
Home. Beneath the threshold, precious rubble
Laces the mind a poison prime of the manic.
The problem is with the last line. Would that be grammatically correct? Discussing it with a friend currently. The 'poison' bit is meant to describe the rubble. I have a weird way of writing, so I just tend to write what I feel is right.

Oh... This is Still a Thing.
Posted 9 years agoGood lord, it's been so long since I've actually tried using the site minus catching up on things (Still need to do that, blegh.) that I actually forgot even how to make a journal for a moment. Oy vey!
Yes, I'm very much alive, though I do not know about my soul. There have been so many deaths in my family, wonderful, close people, all at once, they've turned me asunder. Everything feels at a standstill, even more so since my brother ended up getting into a wreck not horribly long ago. Lost the use of his legs, though he's trying his best to walk again, there's even movement in his legs again, a hell of a burden off of my mind. I do not state this for condolences, the time for that has long since past. I just felt like stating what's kept me at bay. All I want is for this god awful year to end and a chance to revitalize myself without some other incident barraging me from out of nowhere so quickly.
Aside from the dreariness, I've been faring. . . decently, I suppose? With the aforementioned matter, my writing has plummeted, so I'll eventually get back to that. Mayhaps instead of looking for new ideas, I'll refresh myself and rework old pieces into my current style, to try and hone my skills first before expanding on projects. Maybe eventually start on the Thursday prompts, if that is still a thing.
My editing job with
systematicweasel has being going on rather well. Gone through a good number of books, even an anthology, so I've definitely been keeping a tad busy, at least. Though the more I edit, the more I realize I need an English book, to which I believe my husband will one day get both of us one since he shares in the editing process as well.
In regards to Twitch streaming and whatnot, it's been an on and off thing, started to get tired of what games I streamed. However, I've gotten over 150 followers on there, and as an antisocial furry, I consider that an accomplishment. Apparently, my witch-like cackle is a hell of a gimmick along with my energetic outtake and liveliness to things.
Got a dog a few months back, one that actually is to me and Weasel. Six years old, I believe? Old dog, a chihuahua, but he's such a lovable little thing and silly as can be. ... And rude, opening the door to the room every so often.
I'm. . . still thinking a lot about myself, but I'm starting to get a better sense of myself and am attempting to improve my outlook on things. It's not helped that there's been a lot of things going on, but c'est la vie and all that.
Well, I believe that sums up most things. I'd state everything, but some things, I feel it best to keep personal. Hope everyone has been doing well. Oh, yes! I got to edit a book for an actress, a memoir of sorts, that's gotta be a bit of a highlight~

Updates, Marriage and Such.
Posted 9 years agoOkay, um... I want to start by saying that I may just use FA for lurking as I have been. If I'm to take writing more seriously, I don't want any of my newer pieces being compromised in case I get something very precious and personal published. I'll probably be posting things to Furry Network, see how that goes. Maybe I just need a change of places to get back into the fandom.
Next up, I've definitely been writing a bit more. I've been going to a poetry critique group with
systematicweasel, and it's been going great. ... Asshole keeps bring perfect pieces, though, so the group is joking around about that. XD I am glad, though, I am finding errors in my own pieces. Slight errors (and yes, this has given me a bit of an ego. >.>;), but errors none-the-less.
I've DEFINITELY gotten more involved with twitch.tv streaming. 138 followers there, really happy. I've also started contemplating doing Twitch Creative. Would be a good way to showcase my writing, do readings worldwide, get others to write, and just all around encourage the writing world.
Now lastly...
systematicweasel and I have decided to get married within the first week of June. <3 Was gonna be on October 31st because of money stuff and... the weasel being finicky. >.>; But I've decided to use my earnings from the press to help with things. So yea... I'm... really, really, REALLY excited for that. <3 And that's all for now~

Things of Import
Posted 10 years agoIt's a shame, I tend to speak so eloquently in text at times, but never in actual conversation. Strange, when I adore such dialogue.
OKAY! So, um... First of, I just want to say that I have a book out! It's called Wayward Realm: Poetry from a Fox. http://www.weaselpress.com/#!wayward-realm/msw4l There's a list of sites on the page where you can purchase a copy, from Amazon to Barnes&Noble.
Second... I've realized I've grown out of touch with the furry fandom. I don't comment anymore (though that's not much of a difference, I rarely commented anyways.), nor do I look at any artwork and listen to music. Or READ! I need to read more. I do. I'm lazy, though. And picky. I don't want to read a book online or on a Kindle. I want to read it in my hands. >.>
Third... The typical 'woe is me' and other gripes because I'm a needy little fuck and I'm getting tired of just being quiet and shelved off. You know... I was hoping my streaming would pick up. It hasn't. Ran into a funk. Why? Don't feel like anyone is interested at all. Which bothers me. The last journal, I posted my stream channel. Not a single follow. I advertise when I stream on my Twitter. No one comes. This makes me wonder how much support for things do I really have. Probably a good portion of that is my fault. I'm not active with my shit. I feel discouraged. It's honestly a lot of wasted work, in my eyes, when I stream for a few hours and not a single person pops on. Even people that do follow me tend not to show up. They have other streams to go to that they see as more interesting or whatever. I know I'm new to this, this is just me and my typical complaining. And it is because of this, after thinking a lot during my shower today (because people LOVE to know things like this, oh my god.), that I'm gonna try and make a change. I'm gonna start back into the fandom and actually PROMOTE myself. I always felt awkward, giving a comment on random pictures and whatnot, but that's one form of networking. Also, ASKING people to support me. Not random people, though. You lot, who, for some ungodly reason, stuck through and keep around even though I've been so absent. I'm going to write more. I've said this so many times, but I plan to do so. I know what my problems are now. It's not that I'm ignorant and can't come up with content (though it feels like I am and such at times), but because I actually need a medium to base my work on. I CAN come up with stuff on my own, but I've noticed my talent comes from bringing to life things I hear, things I see. A lot of my poetry comes from looking at some pieces of artwork, wonderful music echoing in my ears. Just as a musician can flood the senses with vivid sounds or a picture send chills and sensations, so too can my poetry. I've always loved the twisting of words, the constriction, the imagery that comes from old world poetry, and I've taken that unto my own style, and I can say I'm fucking proud of that. EVEN more so that it made me some money. My book actually sold. It actually sold at a public reading. I sold out. That made me so happy. That was something I did, that people enjoyed, that people wanted to support. That is an amazing feeling that I will never forget. I've had people say they like this and that, but not anyone that said "I want to make you money." Never had anyone encourage me to do an event, which I WILL be doing, you can ask
systematicweasel for the details when he gets that situated. Now, I sit here and say I want support from you guys. I know that's a lot. You've seen my work, y'all wouldn't be sticking around if you didn't like it. I want more of a reason to do this. Doing this as a hobby... It gets a little draining. I used to say that I didn't want a little fame. I'm lying to myself. I lie to myself a lot of times because I want to be modest. I never wanted to be seen as great because that's something that's easily torn down. Not anymore. I can sit here and say I'm an amazing writer. I'm an amazing gamer, and I can be one HELL of an entertainer if given the chance. I can sing (I rag on my own voice so much, but others like it, and I know it's fitting for some genres). I'd LOVE to do public readings. I have that old storyteller voice that just sweeps a person down into the world I'm describing. So please, support my book. Support my writing. Support my streaming. It was such a letdown to see not a single interest in those things. It made me want to give up on this site. I'll try to be more active. That is my fault. I also plan to support others. I don't advertise much for my friends, for my favorite streamers, artists, musicians, writers. I need to. I plan to. I no longer claim to be antisocial, because holy fuck, I make a damn effort at times to try and get in touch with people. Tired of bringing my own self down. ... So yea, done with that. Had a bundle of energy, and needed to get ALL of that out. Now excuse me as I take my time whittling down my 17k+ submissions.

Whoo, Updates!
Posted 10 years agoWell! Just about seems that I've abandoned this account. >.> I need to fix that.
Health: I'm doing better for once~ My kidneys are improving, and since my blood pressure has been getting low, I've been pulled off one of my blood pressure meds. ... Well, I can take them if necessary, but I also don't need to take them. Just the big ass one. @.@
Work: I can actually say I have a job now! I work for the weasel now as an official editor to the press. ... Pay is fancy dinners every so often and earning my keep to living with him, so yay, no longer feel like a mooch. XD Also, I stream games now! And have a somewhat small following! Would mean a lot to have some support. <3 www.twitch.tv/sendokidu Can't do too much, though. So far, PS4 streaming is the best, although I can stream other things. Gets so choppy, though. Maybe I'll work up and get some better equipment and such so things can be more enjoyable. I'd also recommend following my Twitter, as I'll post when I'm streaming there as well. https://twitter.com/Sendokidu I tend not to stream often, but I'm gonna try to fix that.
Family: Well... I honestly have no idea what to say on this, and I've been barely able to take this well. My parents are getting a divorce. So yea, um... Blegh. Probably for the best, but it kinda... makes me feel a bit empty to see that happening.
But yea, that pretty much sums it up. I'd mention writing, but um... I actually posted something, so yay!

Well... Hey, Everybody~
Posted 11 years agoYea, um... Sorry for such a lack of activity. @.@ Just not been feeling all that here as of late. ... Kinda made a journal of this way back when, but deleted it in the afterthought of seeing it as complaining, so figured I'd let this be a way to collect my thoughts. *takes a deep breath* So here goes~
Okay, so. I've been lacking the drive to do much. Don't check FA as much as I do, don't bother with fractals much, don't write as much as I do. I'm thinking of changing that around, though. ... And maybe do something with this room I'm in, always felt so stifling, even the weasel has started to notice. @.@
8,081 submissions to check through, yaaaay! @.@ But I think I'm gonna take the time to go through them everyday, get caught up on things, even go back through galleries to see what I missed. My fractals... Meh, I don't know what to do with them. Just pretty things that people are interested in, I see no meaning to them aside from something I can do, although at an amateur level. My writing... I can't say I've lost interest in it, but I've become slightly timid. I know little of things. @.@ That has become aware to me, this is something I need to fix. May get the weasel to help me with that. ... Though maybe I just feel stale. Trying to come up with things to write, it's kinda frustrating. @.@ I've actually decided that I may go back to doing some of the things I used to do, just describe scenery and such. ... And I should probably go back to using music and artwork to fuel my passion. I was always at my peak when I had something like that to work with. ... Writing this now, I'm feeling a bit more confidence. XD So yea, I'll go with that. If I can at least get myself to write things I like, I can at least feel accomplished and grow from that. ... The weasel at least allows me to help every so often with his press, doing the editing business. ... Tedious, that, but keeps my mind busy.
... I'm still fixated on my health problems at the moment, though. Still don't know what the fuck is going on, trying to get money to go to the specialist. Hope I don't have to redo those damn tests again. @.@ And as luck would have it, I found out that the vitreous gel in my left eye is liquifying. ... This actually has me scared. I've already looked it up, and I know it's not that likely to cause lost of sight, but it is still possible.
And that pretty much sums up what's been going on with me these past few months. Right now, I just can't wait for December to see my family. I've missed them terribly.
Also, since it's been forever since I've listed music in my journals, I'm gonna do so now. I enjoyed doing that.
Okay, so. I've been lacking the drive to do much. Don't check FA as much as I do, don't bother with fractals much, don't write as much as I do. I'm thinking of changing that around, though. ... And maybe do something with this room I'm in, always felt so stifling, even the weasel has started to notice. @.@
8,081 submissions to check through, yaaaay! @.@ But I think I'm gonna take the time to go through them everyday, get caught up on things, even go back through galleries to see what I missed. My fractals... Meh, I don't know what to do with them. Just pretty things that people are interested in, I see no meaning to them aside from something I can do, although at an amateur level. My writing... I can't say I've lost interest in it, but I've become slightly timid. I know little of things. @.@ That has become aware to me, this is something I need to fix. May get the weasel to help me with that. ... Though maybe I just feel stale.

Little Fox Following Along.
Posted 11 years ago1. Why did you start writing?
Only thing I could think of to do. Was at the time of joining FA, I didn't want to seem like some lurker (failed at that...), I couldn't draw and compose music worth of shit, so I took a chance at writing.
2. Was there anything that lead you into writing or did you just start on a kind of impulse?
Impulse seething in curiosity of how old world poets twisted words around.
3. What are some other writers who have inspired you? Are there any artists or other specific mediums that inspired you as well (video games, movies, etc.)?
I'll admit to being a dipshit and not reading much, but I won't deny I take a bit of inspiration from William Shakespeare. First time I ever took an interest in writing. Also, video games and cartoons. ... Too much of a damn junkie with those things.
4. Is there a project you’ve worked on that you absolutely love and would really like to see published?
When I stop being lazy and actually work on something, maybe.
5. Would you like to be published some day? If not, then why?
When I have more pieces worth anything, yes (not counting what I've submitted to
systematicweasel's anthology). Would be nice for others to read my work, though hopefully someone who could appreciate what it is.
6. What are your favorite genres to write? Are they the same as the genres you like to read? If not, then why?
Fantasy. Hands down. And yes, same as the genres I like to read.
7. Is there a particular subject you find it difficult to write about? What is it and why?
I'm pretty sure I could write anything if I did the appropriate research. That's one thing that limits me. ... The question is, is it a topic I give a shit about? I find it difficult to immerse myself in anything that I could care less of. That would most likely be Slice of Life and Sci-Fi (there are some exceptions in this. Most things futuristic, blegh).
8. Is there another medium you really want to try at some point that would make use of your writing skills but also require you learn other forms of art? If so, what is it?
As was already attempted, drawing. I would love to bring out some of my pieces into a visual image.
9. How do you solve the problem of ‘writers block’?
I procrastinate. ._. ... No, seriously, that's what I do. I wait til I can get myself to write. Most of the time, my head feels hazy. That's what I always do. ... Oughta just...start something up and put myself on a deadline.

Insanity.
Posted 11 years agoI'm not leaving, no... At least, I don't think I am, or have I already? Bah. xp
I'm starting to think, though, that I should maybe look into expanding myself to other sites. Maybe to places that isn't furry as well. ... Probably should have done so to start with, but eh. >.> At this rate, I feel like this place is going to completely and willingly alienate the people within it. ... I seriously don't think a lot of thought was put into this. :/
Eh. The Crazies come to mind with this.

Hello, Hello, I'm Alive~
Posted 11 years agoSorry for the quietness. ^^; Anti-social binge, blegh. Still in it, kinda, so I'll still be a bit quiet. x.x Currently 2:55 AM as I am writing this... Just figure I'd update on some things. Things that need be said.
College: I still need to get my transcript, but aside from that and other things, I should hopefully be starting soon.
Health: Okay, this may have been a little over a month maybe, but my health has significantly improved, thank goodness. Last report on kidneys, function went up to 50%. Also, everything seems to be normal except for Vitamin D, so having to get that up with supplements and such. Yay. :3 ... Just need to figure out what is causing my hypertension, though. @.@ I'm veeeery certain myself it has to do with either the fact that it's in the family and/or because I'm very, very high strung/over dramatic. Just have to wait on that. ... I may be getting sick, I may not, I dunno. Weasel has the flu, so he'll be...shitty. Mental health-wise... I'm a lot less depressed and such than I've been, though I still have those moments where it's fuck all and I just want to escape from everyone and feel shitty about myself. I'm almost convinced that there's something wrong with me for it to become sporadic. Almost too convenient that I always have something to blame it on. :/
Writing: ... I'll admit that I've just...not had any desire to write as of late. :/ Dunno if it's a lack of motivation or what. I'm very certain, though, the environment or whatever isn't helping. I know I can get thoughts running if I get music. For now, my project will be on hiatus. I'm gonna work on world building instead. That is something that I'm lacking in. I've also realized how analytic I am when I do plan out things, so currently I'm not going to include the prologue thing I wrote for the project. As I think more of the ending, it becomes nothing more than senseless sensationalism, and I will not partake in that. If something befalls anything to a character, it is not to garner sympathy and allure for it. Character growth is something I want out of it, if I can envision it. Or at least have something to do with the plot. ... What would be a good place to look into religious backgrounds and cultural influences? I want to look more into European mythologies as I would very much like that to be the basis in the world for the project. More so with the fey folk and such. I've...kinda already gotten an idea of what I want to do, an interesting twist... As I've always had an interest in things like elves and dwarves, with doing a furry-themed world, I was thinking of making a city full of albino furs would take up the elven realm while underground burrowers like moles and badgers and such would make up something in relation to dwarves. ... The more I keep thinking on this, the more I want to get more into this. ; ; ... Also, I need to take a day and catch up on all the readings on FA. It's been almost a year since I've actually sat down and read anything, and it really pains me that I've not kept up.
Well, I think that's pretty much it. Sorry I've not been so interactive and such. ^^; Never did thought it good to speak unless there was a need for it, and that is something I need to get out of. Anyways, hope everyone had a decent Christmas and a good start into the new year~

To the Person Driving in a White Four Door Sedan...
Posted 12 years agoFuck you. Fuck you and your idiocy. I hope a rabid dog rips your crotch and intestines out for lunch. I hope you lose your job and your driver's license. You do not deserve either. You deserve so many fucking things to happen to you, you piece of shit. Do you not see other cars coming around before you try blitzing your way onto the road? Holy fuck, this is not a freeway, you have to fucking WAIT at the fucking STOP SIGN and LOOK for other drivers! Asswipe. Don't just fucking gas it.
I don't like Texan drivers at all. Not when they put others at risk of injury or death for whatever fucking reason. Not a fun day out at all.

Updates and Such.
Posted 12 years agoOkay, um... Seems I've gone a bit missing for a bit. XD >.> At least it feels like I have. Well, just figured I'd let everyone know I'm still here.
Life has been the same old, same old, so nothing much there. Pretty much on a social binge, so I'm less talkative.
Writing, things have slowed there. Mainly because, in thinking along with The Locket's Silhouette, I've realized I've made an oops-y. Ch.1 is going to be turned into a prologue of sorts due to a time-skip. Having to actually think on an ending because, as it stands, when everything gets to it, it completely falls apart. I'm not liking it.
Oh yea, um... Weasel has recently gotten us a PS Vita to share...and he got me Final Fantasy: Dissidia 012... So yea, um, unless you have the game (I don't liiiiiike solo all the time. ; ;), most likely you won't hear much from me at all for um...some time in the future.
So yea, that's pretty much it. Also, gotta get FAFSA started up again for the Spring semester. Hopefully things go as planned this time~

Posted 12 years agoPlanning Things Out.
Posted 12 years agoI think...I'm going to actually force myself into planning my works. All of them. So with that, I will be starting something up. ... I...have a small habit, though, of over-thinking things. I cannot just do things simple. If I'm going to invest my time planning something, it has to be worth the effort. ... That, and I'm just bad at sticking to small works. .-. SO! I'm starting a canto or whatever. I just know it's going to be LONG (an aspect of my work that has been pointed out as a flaw. ; ; WHICH I WILL WORK ON LATER! Or not. Depends on if I want to increase my reach in an audience or not.) And as a furry, it shall be furry based. This...is where I felt I need to address something. I decided to make the main protagonist, who is nameless currently but shall soon be named, a red fox in the profession of a hunter. Here, I find a problem - UNINTELLIGENT FAUNA! I'm having to find a way through this. Or maybe make it that the gods of the religion prominent in the land (of which both I shall work on) an evil-twisted set that makes both sets for each species - Intelligent anthro and unintelligent feral (I can't think of the word that described the inferior state better. x.x)
Now, what is this story about, you ask? Well, I cannot say too much. X3 In terms of genre, this iwll be an adventure of sorts. I also plan to use some things I was gonna go with from my failed story from way back when. Meaning family death and betrayal and all that shit. Or not. I'M STILL THINKING ON WHAT'S GOOD AND WHAT'S NOT! Anyways, I hope to have something done soon. X3
TL:DR (Fuck you people) Long poem, working things out.
EDIT: Also, don't ask me about what names I use. I have a very bad habit of making up my own nonsensical names that have no purpose whatsoever. If I think on something being needed, though, I will. >.> Just saying, please don't question me on it.
OH YES! The reason why I posted this: If you are easily offended just over an animal of the species you chose to gallivant about as is considered unintelligent and is killed and shit, don't read. That's IF I decide on that. (I could be wicked, though, and just have everything moving about and just call it cannibalism, so remember that. How else do furries get meat anyways, eh?)
EDIT 2: Or, apparently, a better idea may just as well create species of my own to use. That... That might actually be interesting. X3

Posted 12 years agoFeeling Better
Posted 12 years agoI think I'm starting to feel better. X3 Been hollowed out, dreary for a while, and I think things are finally picking up. I may even start writing sooner than anticipated~ Ladadee, today is such a good day~ X3 Like, seriously, I feel happier than normal. Just, wheeee! XD
Been singing along to this song for a bit today, omg, I just love this song. And so with my own head rolling about, I bid thee adieu~

Small Thing
Posted 12 years agoI know I've not really written much in the past couple of months. It's...probably gonna be the same for a while, aside from what I've just written. ... Writer's block, to say the least. Anyways, hope everyone has a good day.
