I don't expect anyone to see this. There's no dicks, no porn, no balls touching, no white liquid on this one so into FA archives it'll go.
That is who you think it is. It's the one who started off my online art life. It's Lyra. I've been in this fandom nearly 9 years now and had Lyra a few years longer than that. I'm only 25 (in Feb) and this fandom has just worn me down and aged me so badly. I've actually gotten to a point I thought would never happen to me. I've outgrown the furry fandom.
There's nothing in it for me anymore, the only thing that keeps me here is the fact that I can still offer commissions for you guys. But this year has been too few for me to be happy. I have been feeling very very unappreciated as an artist this year. ConFuzzled was quite a dive for my confidence which is why I will not be in the Dealer's Den for 2016. =( This is the first year that I will not be dealing for you.
I'll try not to rant, but i think the furry fandom hype died when Frantic Eufuria ended and even more so when Tier and I split last year, then once more burning bridges when SouthFur Camp got challenged and replaced, one of the few events I actually took Pride in doing. I don't know if I will really bring it back in 2017 either. What's the point when someone else is doing my job? =/
I feel like I've become a nobody in this fandom, I have very few friends left here that I talk to or need me and gone are the days when I would get hounded for commissions v.v I do get it somewhat in the Brony Fandom, but it's like a whole chapter of my life has closed over here and it makes me sad to look back.
This post does not mean total end to Lyra and my furry art. I will continue to accept commissions, but Lyra will be on semi retirement. I just don't draw her much anymore. Stormy's taken over my life. She is my new sona and I am very happy with her. I guess that's the point of moving on. I am in a very happy and loving relationship with Reverb and have a load of new friends and a new identity. Stormy is my new life.
You can find her over here:

A lil bit less crying and more action and people will still click your stuff.
When the "fandom goes nuts dont give a fuck, it will save your nerves and make you age slower than people who are batshitt serious(lol)
Even as a nobody you can have fun, and who says when you draw furry related smut that you have to draw only furry stuff? DO YOUR THING!
And hey,who gives a fuck about a hype? Hypes are only for hipsters and nobody likes hipsters.
When in this "fandom" is nothing left for you, leave and dont just stay here go get some comissions. There way more than furry porn or porn in general to draw. (seriously try something else you might be interested in)
And at last i have to say do not look back, look forward. living in the past is always a big mistake.

This stuff ebbs and flows a lot.
I'm far less active around here, one point I was running around telling everyone how I'm a proud furry lol
Now...well. ...bugger all really, chat to a few now and then but really my priorities have changed.
Do what's right and good for you.
