Good morning (my time) everyone. Your friendly, black wolf and his pack here. There are some things that need to be announced here.

It has been seven months since a life-changing event happened to me, and quite honestly, I couldn't be happier. I get my time with my pup and enjoy every moment with them without hindrance. Although it is every-other weekend, I still do my best as a dad to teach them the necessary things in life. I live closer to family, so being closer to the support that I need makes me feel at ease. I can get the support I need when I need it and provide the help that my family members need when I wasn't able to last year. I felt bad when I lived where I lived because I wasn't able to help them. Now that I am back in my home area, I feel more successful and more motivated to improve not only my position in life, but my pup's as well. I have a new, supportive, kind-souled girlfriend. I've reconnected with some old friends that I lost many years ago. I am more involved in my religion. I am able to be there for my family members as well. Life is grand.

Time to acknowledge what happened between Shira and I. I will not go into detail still because those who know will be the only ones who need to know what happened. We simply didn't work out. We tried poly and it ruined our marriage. I am not saying poly is bad. It works for some couples, but it didn't work for us. Again, more to it than that, but I will not speak ill about it. I wish we could've worked it out and I do miss what we had. However, I am more at peace and happier in life where I am now.

Time to acknowledge an old friendship. There is another user on here that I was great friends with. We had such a great friendship, but it was my fault the friendship ended. So those that speak ill of it, you don't know what happened. It has come to my attention though that possibly someone I may know is harassing this old friend of mine. I am going to say this and say it now. Leave them alone! They have their life and I have mine. What happened between us happened between us, not us and you. Let them enjoy their life without a reminder of the past or any drama of it. What happened...happened! If you are a friend of mine harassing that individual, own up and tell me!

A few other things to announce:

1) Since this FA issue has taken some time to be resolved, it has made me realize and open my eyes to a few things. I need to mellow myself from the fur world. Not leave completely, but mellow down from it.

2) Since the life-changing event happened, finances have been tight. With rent, groceries, bills, a child, and stuff for me...it's been tight. That is why there have been less and less art of my characters. Looking at a graph I made, there were roughly eighty pieces of art in 2024 when I have less than ten for this year. Not a bad thing, but an eye-opener. I look forward to future art pieces of some new characters that haven't had any yet. However, my fur-addiction is settling down and it feels good.

3) With a new character on the way into the pack, another is going to leave. It will be Alyx, the feral velociraptor. I just don't have time for her or have any ideas for her. So, if anybody wants her, she is being put up for $60 USD sometime this week.

4) If you want an art piece with one of our characters, message me here. All will be approved or disapproved by my girlfriend because I am focusing on us and slowly introducing her into the fur community. However, she has seen a few characters of a friend of mine that she that was hot o.o (I wonder who) muahahaha!

5) Lastly, to all of my watchers, my supporters, my friends, and my artists. Thank you all for everything; your support, your friendship, and your art. It brings me joy knowing that this community is so friendly. Keep doing what y'all do.

Much love,
Bloodwolf
