Forgot to post when I started this one… but I just finished it. Came highly recommended by my peer group, and rightly so. For several days, I fled into this book before bed, and I found myself slowing down more and more the further I got, not wanting it to end. I cried, too. 📕 @utunu.bsky.social

A book on my couch table: "Rafts" by Utunu. Peeking from its side is a bookmark featuring a parrot amidst tropical vegetation.

Hey hey. :) I'm Utunu, and I write fantasy, science fiction, and historical fiction, often with some romance elements. Currently working on the final novel of my science fiction trilogy, full of fennecs, hyenas, psionic powers, and curry!

2026 book #13: Far Flung by @utunu.bsky.social. Really fun, smart, furry, queer scifi adventure. The book's heart is the strong & fun relationship btw the three main characters; the worldbuilding of two small, interdependent, multispecies colonies hits interesting themes. Looking fwd to the sequel!

Back from Anthrocon as of 1:30 last night, finally! I wanted to say thank you to all of you who came to my (and others') writing panels, and especially to those of you who expressed appreciation for my books! <3 And to those of you who bought my books, thank you much for your support!

I'll be at AC starting tomorrow! I don't have a table, but there'll be a few books at my wife's table (N19, check out her crochet!). I'm also doing five writing panels (Settings, Dialogues, Characters, Writing Groups, and Science Fiction) where I'll pretend I know what I'm doing. Come say hi!

GO BUY SOME GOOD BOOKS! I just picked up Game of Life, but there are a ton of great options on offer. I've personally read A Portrait for Tomorrow, My Remise, and everything by Utunu, so I can personally attest to the quality 👌

Announcement! This Saturday at 5 p.m. CDT, I will be doing a "Meet the Author" event on the @bewerebooks.bsky.social Discord! I'll be chatting all things Gravitational Pull and doing a reading from the book, with a live Q&A session to follow. Hope to see you there! discord.com/invite/C8uFs...

Book recommendation time! Gonna start off by being a broken record with Utunu's Far Flung and the recently released sequel, Tethers Torn! It's got gay psionic fennecs and scientist hyenas discovering an erased and unknown world around them, what's not to love?

This pride delve deep into work by real queers! No matter what you like it's out there, and it's some kind of queer. REPOST THIS and use it to recommend some queer works you like - give a quick overview of vibe, themes, and story. No self-recs in this one, thanks.

A random request, for readers out there…if you’ve had a gander at the Dry Spell, and its sequel, the Iron Ark, both through @furplanet.com , please do post a review. Let me know what you think about the adventures of reluctant herbivore vampires and their functional alcoholic werewolf partners.🦌🐐🐿️🐺

😱💜 The time has finally come! Doppelfoxx Publishing will be open for business and public submissions as of ✨ June 15th! ✨ But first, let us introduce ourselves properly! We are an EU-based and globally-focused furry publishing house with worldwide print distribution and convention presence - 🧵

So many people that embrace AI, not just the techbros, but regular folks too... they remind me of marks in a mentalist's show. They see things that seem like they could be correct or apply to their situation and wedge those approximations into their misplaced trust and belief.
