Any Furs around that have the new Super Smash Bros?

Furry Reddit - Wed 15 Oct 2014 - 15:27

Add me if you want to play with someone who is pretty meh. And if you prefer to play with custom sets off then let me know. (I'll still use mii fighters just not custom sets for normal characters)

FC: 0774-4291-5186

Also, I need to find someone to draw my fursona wearing Robins robes so if anyone can suggest an artist and the price range they have let me know.

Edit: Now the upvotes are nice and all but I'm pretty sure I need FCs from others if you want to play with me.

So is someone attacking FA?

Furry Reddit - Wed 15 Oct 2014 - 14:03

I heard its DDOS and not exactly sure what it is (not to be ignorant) though it keeps coming back online and then off. Any insight to this?

Furry Writers' Guild - Wed 15 Oct 2014 - 08:14
1. Tell us about your most recent project (written or published). What inspired it?

renards coverFor my furry writing, I’m in the process of revising a novel set in the same fantasy world as my short story “Irula’s Apprentice,” but a couple of generations later. In this world, I envision what a society of intelligent lions might look like if one takes existing lion behavior as a given. It’s also been interesting to see how a leonine society might take on different dimensions depending on the setting.

The novel is in a lot rougher shape than I’d like it to be, but I’ll be looking for a publisher when I get it in a shape that I like.

With my non-furry work, I recently had a piece of flash fiction accepted for publication that combines aspects of the Cthulhu mythos with the legend of the Pied Piper of Hamelin. A science fiction story will soon be released by the Wily Writers podcast.

2. What’s your writing process like? Are you a “pantser,” an outliner, or something in between?

Most of my stories have a fairly long period of rumination, where I’m working out story issues in my head. I tend to do a lot of research, which I may or may not use in my writing. I try to write a first draft as quickly as I can; sometimes I have a broad outline, sometimes I know what I want to do in the next couple of sections. And sometimes I just write to see where the characters and concept will take me. I try to revise as best as I can, and then try to get beta readers involved before I make a submission-ready draft — although deadlines don’t always allow me to exercise the full process.

3. What’s your favorite kind of story to write?

Most of my stories tend to be speculative fiction of one sort or another, with horror and dark fantasy predominating lately. Often my stories focus on individuals thrust into extreme situations and how their choices wind up making or breaking them. World creation is important, and I hope I do it reasonably well, but in the end I want the characters to be most important.

4. Which character from your work do you most identify with, and why? I would probably say Raalfarinoor from my lion novel. While I don’t think he’s a Mary Sue/Gary Shrew, there are a lot of ways he represents an idealized version of myself. His courage, his integrity, his humor and his curiosity are all something I strive for.

5. Which authors or books have most influenced your work?

I tend to draw from a number of influences, depending on the nature of the project I’m working on. My earliest influences include C. S. Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia, J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, Norton Juster’s Phantom Tollbooth, and Lewis Carroll’s Alice books. Later influences include G. K. Chesterton, Charles de Lint, Cordwainer Smith and the haiku poets Basho and Buson.

6. What’s the last book you read that you really loved? I absolutely loved everything about Andre Norton’s Breed to Come. I highly recommend it to all readers of science fiction. 7. Besides writing, how do you like to spend your free time?

I’m a very avid reader, reading somewhere between one and two novels a week. I like nonfiction too, but that generally goes a little more slowly. I also enjoy spending time with my wife and playing with our cat.

8. Advice for other writers?

ABW: Always Be Writing. One hundred percent of the stories never written are never read. You can fix just about anything in the rewrites, if you have something to fix. Leave out the boring parts, or at least delete them in the rewrites. Learn what makes a good story by reading good stories. Take the time to revise your work. And never stop writing.

9. Where can readers find your work?

I was very fortunate to have audio versions of two of my furry stories produced by Anthro Dreams. I mentioned “Irula’s Apprentice” earlier. “C.Moira’s Choice” is an homage to the science fiction of Cordwainer Smith. Anyone interested in my non-furry stuff can get in touch with me via Twitter (@haikufictiondju) or my blog: http://haikufiction.blogspot.com.DJU

10. What’s your favorite thing about the furry fandom?

I’ve always appreciated how accepting the furry fandom is. You decide what species and gender your fursona is, with almost infinite possibilities. You decide how furry you are as an individual — are you an artist, a writer, a fursuiter, a lifestyler, a fan? Some combination of all of the above? You choose, and the furry fandom accepts the you that you choose to be. I’m aware of no other fandom that is that accepting.

[NSFW] What decides what we find attractive in our brain?

Furry Reddit - Wed 15 Oct 2014 - 06:45

[NSFW] I did a survey (kind of experiment). This was to test the open mindedness/ attractiveness to certain things. This Is the anthro canine that I used for one part of the control.

Most people (Particularly non-furs, don't see any kind of attraction to them)

I did a survey of about 20 people. 3/20 people could see the attractiveness of the wolf anthro. They were non furs.

2/20 people were attracted to this deer anthro.

How does this work? I'm confused as to how one "turns off" their attraction to something, even with mostly human features.

Out of the whole control group, less than half were attracted.. I'm mind-blown.

My significant other hates "furries", but I am one.

Furry Reddit - Wed 15 Oct 2014 - 04:49

Update: Oct 15th- Thank you all so much for the feedback, I will talk to him about it later today then update you guys. I appreciate all the advice <3

Been with this person for about a year now, only recently I discover their hate for "furries". I honestly thought this person was open minded, I mean.. they watch the silliest anime, and they get off to 'Loli'. "I don't judge, it's all fantasy", I told them when they showed me their "Monster Girl" game collection.

I'm not way flamboyant about my love for Anthro/Furry/Animal stuff, but I do own a handful of Plushies, I do want own my own costume for Halloween or cons some day, and I watch alot of movies with animals in them, but that was all they knew.

Anyway..they were looking at hentai and I saw some yiff pictures mixed into the gallery. I said "that's hot", they cringed at me and said "Oh god no, furries are the most disgusting people ever", and went on about how furries get fat just to fit in their bear suits, most of them have OCD/ADHD, Beastiality.. every insult you can imagine. I finally managed to word in.." I'm kinda a furry though babe...". They busted out laughing at me and then tilted their head asking "Are you serious?! But your so normal!"

Of course I was immediately turned off and canceled our little 'look up porn together then have fun' session. They tried to convince me I'm probably not a furry, or maybe I just really like animals, all because I'm not a weirdo.

I'm not sure how to handle this situation, should I be getting upset over silly stereotypes? Should I try to prove him wrong? Should I even be getting upset about him insulting a fandom? Should I just blow it off?
