UPDATE:
I just fixed the poll to allow for multiple entries, which some people below had suggested...
Hi, it's your friendly neighborhood greymuzzle again...
I'm writing Furry Nation, the first book tracing our fandom's birth and growth and connecting it to the human instinct that's been around forever to anthropomorphize animals. (website: furrynation.com ) It will published next fall by Cleis Press.
I'm writing this for the general public, not just furs. The book will also cover mainstream, non-furry anthropomorphism in movies like Guardians of the Galaxy, TV shows like Bojack Horseman, Broadway musicals like Cats, novels featuring anthro characters, anthro art in museums and art galleries... (I've been talking to a lot of the people who create mainstream anthro-themed works; some are cool about furry, others don't want to be associated with us in any way whatsoever.)
There's tons of non-furry anthro stuff out there, and the point I want to make is that furry is part of something much bigger and much older than most people realize.
Anyway, I'd like to add the voices of as many furs as possible to the book; this is the second thread I’m posting on FAF. (First one is here: forums.furaffinity.net: How did you come up with your fursona? )
If anyone wants to contact me personally, just PM me via my JoeStrike or Comus FA pages.
Today’s question is sort of a three-parter, with a bonus poll!
What kind of furry are you?
Is it an interest you had prior to discovering the fandom?
Did it lead you to discover furry fandom?
If your story is interesting enough to go into the book I'll contact you to make sure it's okay and maybe ask a follow-up question or two.
Thanx much, everyone!
