Hi there all!

I know I haven't changed this journal in far too long of a time, and I apologize for that. There's been a lot going on in life, and not much time to talk about it ;) A new job, for starters, which I'm very excited about.

But enough about that! Time for something new and interesting... at least I hope so :P

I've been trying to find more anthropomorphic literature to read, as it's one of my favorite forms of media and what got me interested in furry stories long before I even knew what the internet was. In my search so far, I've found the Hermux Tantamoq books, which are fantastic, to say the least! Very well written and with great messages that don't get too heavy for kids, though maybe a little scary at times. Each one of the books I've read in the series has had at least one moment that's left me with wonder, and that's pretty good for fiction these days, I think. Many artists strive for those moments, and the author of these books has hit it at least thrice with me.  The only downside is that I can't find any contact information or even a web-page to tell the author how much I like the books. The website on the back of the books has been down :( Hopefully Michael Hoeye is not an author that'll disappear into obscurity.

A second set of novels that I've picked up in my search for anthro fiction are the Sholan Alliance books. They came recommended from the Ursa Major list, so I wanted to give them a shot. They're pretty heavy sci-fi from what I've seen so far, and that actually makes it harder for me to get into. I actually really don't enjoy most science fiction stuff like Star Trek, especially not in fiction format. I just have a harder relating to the characters and taking the story for what it is. So far, though, there have been a few cute scenes and some real tension presented, but it's still something I kind of have to force myself to read more of. Apparently, most of the action of the story centers around telepaths and everyone seems to be able to read or 'feel' everyone else's minds and there's so much terminology being thrown around that feels like it's made up on the spot... It's a tough read for me, to say the least ;)

I'm starting with the book entitled 'Fire Margins'. If anyone is a fan of the series, maybe you can highlight some things for me to look out for or pay attention to. Or, better yet, tell me if I'm starting at a good point ;) 'Fire Margins' is NOT the first book in the series, but the earlier books aren't carried at my library, so it was my best option. I think it's only the third book or so...

Come to think of it, that may be why I'm so confused with it. At least, I hoping the explanation is that simple.


If anyone has any great furry novels or stories to recommend, please let me know :) I've been reading a lot more recently, so I'm eager for more to sink my teeth into.

Oh! And for those worried about the last journal and how the drive went, it was a success! Thanks for everyone who supported Kitty Slider and the rest of the CFAR ;)

This will sound weird, but sorry about any future possible take that's (especially today's) at your favorite movie. No offense is meant, even though I'm sure you wouldn't have taken them as such.

......this is a very strange hello.

Heh, I saw it ;) And it was VERY unexpected. But not offensive in the least. If anything, it was cute and a neat surprise :) Not like you're hurting the guy or anything.

And hello to you too! :D

I was wondering did you see my note with the Gift Picture? If it didn't work I can try sending it again.

:iconchameleonice:
Oh no, I saw it! :) Sorry that I didn't reply to ya. I read it right before running off to work, so everything kind of got lost in the shuffle... If you could, though, send it again so that I can give it a proper look and response?
