All the responses have been sent out for Transform Fiction issue #1. If you didn't receive an email (or a note on FA) then let me know! Some really tough calls this time around but also some fantastic stories to share!

Transform Fiction news! We've read through everything and selected the stories we'd like to publish! The next step is to organise which editor is assigned to which story. Afterwards, I'll be contacting everyone that's submitted a story — hopefully by the end of the week!

If you'd like to support my writing, I have a Patreon! patreon.com/c/zenyote I offer early access to my kinky stories, upload my contributions to strawberrytfs' journal project, and I'm also posting a mini series (gay romance +nanite TF) — with similar series planned in future!

(Alex): For this prize task, you've asked for the biggest change, yes, like I change your socks every night. (Greg): Uh-Right, Contestant! What've you got? (C'): Well, last month I suffered a peculiar bite and now, every full moon, I change into this... [points to big-tittied werewolf on screen]

I'm pulling together ideas for my next book. Mostly reflecting on Phase Three (and my creative process) for what worked and didn't. I really enjoy multimedia projects — this time, I'm considering a card game (for worldbuilding). Lino prints too. Things that make the setting feel more real.

We're looking for a few good zines to have at our table at ComicCon. Specifically, we want zines that: - Talk about what furry means to you - Describe how furry has positively impacted your life - Tells the story of how you found furry - Or just broadly illuminates the fandom and culture

Submissions have closed for issue #1 of the Transform Fiction zine! We'll be busying away now, but I want to say a huge thank you for the support you've shown us! Our planned timeline has the issue posted in September, so lots to do between now and then : D

At the bottom of the graphic is The Book Badgers website, thebookbadgers.uk

I finished reading "FINNA", written by Nino Cipri, and it was wonderful. My type of inventive sci-fi with the perfect blend of silliness, vivid ideas, and queerness; with plenty of digs at capitalism. Highly recommended for anyone who's ever been lost in IKEA.

Tomorrow is your last day to submit a story to our first issue (after the pilot!) of Transform Fiction, a zine of TF-themed stories! Next month, the team will be busy reading submissions and selecting what to publish, so expect a response in a few weeks time. Exciting! #furrywriting

I'm planning a book-turned-multimedia project and (primarily because a key aspect of the lore is a turing-complete video game) I'm turning my hand to making a turn-based card game. Very fun to create. No idea if it'll be fun to play!

Every now and then I get asked about my story icons. I recommend: (1) using vector software, like Affinity [I'm still on designer 1.0] and; (2) exporting 32 pt text @ 400x400 pixels, no idea why, but it seems to work! For context, I just throw them together, here's a screenshot of my canvas : S

But when the sun sets…huh? Is that the Crimson Paw!? My outfit combined a catsuit adapted from Catasta Charisma and some custom gauntlets (wrist and ankle) to mimic wraps. I also made a belt with bags and a hood which looks meh and needs iterating on. Still, improving with each thing I make!

There are just three weeks left until the window closes on submissions for Transform Fiction, Issue #1. Thanks to everyone who's already submitted! Very excited to build out the zine after the success of the pilot! : D

Working on a wacky project combining written passages with sketches from my partner, telling a furry multiverse-skipping story. Silly quantum sci-fi done right, I hope. It contains anthro hares! Excited to share this soon!

Embosize (v.) To both *become* something and also *be with* that same something simultaneously. Specifically, in reference to a character or creature capable of being transformed into. From English 'Embody' (v.) + 'Fantasize' (v.)

Thanks to @nyhgault.bsky.social's TF Curiosity panel on popular themes, I now appreciate why I'm often asked to write: (1) turning into dragons; (2) magical curses being involved and/or; (3) a collar being the trigger. No complaints from me, I feel like I've been given a secret recipe.

Last weekend, I revealed the fursuit partial I've been busily working on. Diane Foxington! My first time fursuiting (at confuzzled no less!) was so special and the attention Diane got was spectacular! Thank you so much!
