Having pokémon named after my characters is a really fun honor, since it means people want to think about my talking animal people when they're not even reading my books. : )

In this audio short by @tempowrites.bsky.social The Wind in the Willows has a modern twist, where Toad is obsessed with the latest gadgets (even if he doesn't understand them) and his friends Rat, Badger and Mole are all queer.

Reincarnating is tough and lonely. Either building intergenerational monuments or sharing knowledge, but trying not to accidentally start a new religion. After centuries of near misses, these two cats meet for coffee in "Every Nine Lives or So" by @tempowrites.bsky.social youtu.be/mW26At18nIo

@tempowrites.bsky.social has posted one of my favorite published stories of his to FurAffinity. I highly encourage you all to read it. www.furaffinity.net/view/60274851/

The voice of dog is looking for stories and poems for pride month 2025. This coming June, in what has regularly been our biggest broadcast event of any given year, we want to again feature stories that show facets of the LGBTQ+ experience through a furry lens. Think in terms of "what story do you wish you had had, when first you were coming out?" Stories should be under 10k words. Poems may be any verse form. No minimum length for either. As ever, usual Voice of Dog standards apply: no promotion of bigotry, stories should end on a hopeful note, and must be your own words - ie no use of generative AI, no work you have commissioned, no characters not original to you. We want to feature as many different queer perspectives as possible. Submissions will be accepted until May 1st. There is no cap on number of submissions for Pride Month. For more information, and for submission templates, please visit thevoice.dog/?page=rules.

REMINDER: Submissions for VoD #PrideMonth are open until the end of April.

If you haven't submitted something yet please get in touch.

Writing books is hard and time-consuming. I have lots of ideas for projects, so I try to pick whichever idea is the most ready to go. SW3 has not gotten to the front of the line yet.

You can check out my various work here:

the writing and voice work were both superb

techbro toad is completely on point. it's good to see that he has friends controlling him and some of them are even gay
(1/3)

mole is similarly lucky that his friends can recognize basic as not synonymous with bad. if he wants a warning about what happens when people throw everything into Not Being Basic he need look no further than toad
(2/3)

badger has dilf energy and also parent energy (canonically, but also in the story here, but especially in the way khaki narrates him) (3/3)

@tempowrites.bsky.social is the staff writer at Culturally F'd, voices the solarpunk doggo in Puplift, and wrote the novels Sixes Wild and Windfall, published by FurPlanet Press. You can find more of his stories on FurAffinity and Sofurry.

This was sooo much fun to read. @tempowrites.bsky.social nailed these characters and guided them gently but firmly into the 21st century :)

#BoopTheBallot - suggested by @tempowrites.bsky.social

North Dakota Democratic Party NPL has a ground game this election beyond anything I've ever seen here. In particular, making the signs hyper-local like this is a smart move. ("Ope" is a Northern Plains slang ≅ "pardon me.")

Never let anyone tell you political change is impossible.

Go vote, my stoats!

Your vote always matters. I live in (by some metrics) the most conservative US state & even we have Dems win down-ballot races every cycle. State/local elections have a direct impact on your life. You can make an outsized impact just by bothering to fill out the whole ballot. 🗳️
