Pollen the deer looking beautiful as always at the photo booth.

Don't look at the outtakes, don't do that. Why would you do that? That's mean. Anyways this is Pollen the deer looking beautiful as always at the photo booth, and not an outtake or anything.

The resulting feature turned out even better than I hoped, thanks to @katkiessl.bsky.social & everyone who shared their stories. I'm fascinated by our passion for art in all its forms, communities that develop around it, and people who create it. More to come, so keep an eye on @timesunion.com !

I wanted to do this story after seeing so many warm, encouraging responses on @bsky.app & elsewhere to Eufuria's appearance in a Pride parade video. I needed to learn more! Thankfully, Eufuria's @rileylynn.com was willing to invite us in, talk, and connect us w/ the community. (More...)

One of the first stories I pitched as @timesunion.com's A&E Editor was a feature on Eufuria, the furry convention held 7/17-19 in Albany. It's hard to pass a story to a writer when YOU have a specific vision for it, but @katkiessl.bsky.social did such a wonderful job w/ it. (More...)

First, organizers and attendees of @eufuria.org were so gracious in sharing their stories from within the furry fandom and the artistry behind their fursonas. I wish infinite word count existed because there were so many amazing personal tales that simply didn't fit.
