I don't have any ideas >w< I think if we're going to get more people, we need to do more artwork/fics and point people in our direction. Nothing will attract like content.

Honestly, you guys. :P

I think there are a lot of folks who still pop through the forum now and then, like me, without actually leaving any posts. I drop by to see what's new, then scamper off back to SoFurry or FurAffinity. Blame Poiu and Of The Wilds for addicting me to those websites.

The community is definitely split, though, between this and other forums, as well as both FA and SF. Add on top of that the tendency for a number of the enthusiasts to be a bit on the, er, reclusive side and... well... that adds up to a lot of empty space. Sorry. Smile

I appreciate you saying so, FiB. It's been fun using the Cat House stories as a spin-off from the Gryphon's Tail arc. Gives me a chance to do little one-offs, introduce or develop new characters, and experiment with... er... different levels of 'harshness'.

That's the main down side to doing an ongoing story with this kind of motif, honestly. Losing bits tends to bring the whole story to a pre mature end. No such restriction with one-shots. ;)

Got a couple more Cat House shorts in mind, too, but they're a bit off. Also trying to work on a 'secret project' that will probably never be finished, but... eh. That's what happens to most secret projects. :P

FoxInABox · Posted: Jun 28 2013, 8:22pm Post subject:

Not a problem. Hadn't noticed you'd uploaded more Cat House stuff after the second one. 'Trouble Comes in Threes' was one hell of an entertaining read. There must be no fox in the world more unlucky than Kavah. Even if he does kind of put himself in those situations.

No harm in writing one offs either. Like you've said, a change of pace can be nice. I'm a fan of harshness too, so you'll hear no complaints from me Smile

Also, a secret project hey? How long would I have to pick at you before you spill the beans? You've got my interest now :p

Ha, well, it's nothing as ambitious as Poiu's grand games, or Maskopotal's ball brawl. Sadly, my own coding abilities are nonexistent, else I might try to tackle such a thing. It's just a silly little side project that I work on between stories, or when I'm bored. I may reveal more details on it in time, if it ever comes close to completion, but for now it languishes in my 'Works in Progress' folder.

My real focus this week has been on finishing up A Gryphon's Tail. I know I've only been writing that story for six months, but I'm still a little sorry to see it end. Still, it's a good ending, and the beginning of a new story.

And hey, the new story is an ambitious one. I fully intend for it to conÈ›ine almost every character I've introduced in both the AGT and Cat House series, at least in some small part - Kavah included. The hapless fox is going to have to be careful, though, because he's only got one nut left to his name!

Ah, one of those sorts of projects. Yeah, things like that do tent to take a fair bit of work to get done. Even more so if you haven't got a lot of experience :p . Would be cool to see something like that in your style though. If you ever do get it to a working state, I would love to see it.

Do keep focusing on finishing up Gryphon's Tail though. It's understandable you'd feel a little sad about it ending. Even it it was only six months you worked on it for, it's still something that you've no doubt put a fair bit of time and effort into. Not to worry though, like you said, now it means you can focus all that time and effort into creating some new crazy adventures and what not Smile

. Very ambitious adventures too by the sounds of it.

And plenty of trouble for poor old Kavah as well. Definitely looking forward to the possibility of Kira running into him. A foxkin with only one testicle -- she would have to be absolutely bursting with questions for him :p
