2024 Awards Season – Results
The winners of both the Ursa Majors and the Cóyotl Awards have been announced over the last few days and sadly Work “Fur” Hire didn’t win either. The competition was very tough though, and it was still great to be nominated. I think Work “Fur” Hire was deservedly in the running and it would have…

ConFuzzled 2025 Writing Panels
The schedule for this year’s ConFuzzled was released on Monday and the gang is back together, with a larger range of writing panels than we did last year. I am only presenting one this year, the Tropes in Furry Literature panel on the Monday at 6pm, but there is lots of interesting events going on.…

April 2025 Update – Go Fourth and a New Writing Group
I have been away a lot in April, so the main focus has been editing the five short stories I’m currently working on. I did submit a story to my first non-furry anthology in the middle of the month, while I am aiming to finish a couple of these five stories before I travel back…

2024 Awards Season – Voting
Voting for the 2024 Cóyotl Awards is now open to FWG members and I’m delighted that Work “Fur” Hire is on the shortlist.

February 2025 Update – Awards, AO3 and Website
It’s been a rather busy month, despite spending half of it back in the UK visiting family and friends. I’ve been working on three anthology submissions in February, with the first drafts of two of them completed in the last week. They are now off with beta readers, while I have just started the third…

Scotiacon 2025 – Magical Mayhem
After a week of attacks from the right-wing press, there was a sense of trepidation going into Scotiacon, but the convention itself was a huge success. The attacks began the previous Sunday through a rather benign, albeit inaccurate, article in a Scottish tabloid newspaper. Things snowballed from there, with the British press getting increasingly extreme…

2024 Awards Season
Well, it’s that time of year again as both the Ursa Majors and Cóyotl Awards are open for nominations. I thought I would have more to offer this year, but the only stories I had published in 2024 were in the Work “Fur” Hire anthology. Please nominate this for Best General/Other Literary Work in the…

January 2025 Update – Stories, SoFurry and Scotiacon
It’s been a very fruitful month, largely because I have spent most of January indoors hiding from the cold. This has meant I’ve had plenty of time to work on stories and I am now caught up, having not quite achieved the goals I set for myself for the end of 2024. I have submitted…
