The rain pours, and behind the clouds is the spring sun! Welcome to the month of April, all you lovely writers and authors out there! My name is Flash Kitterson, and I’ll be taking over as president for the time being! I’m a black furry author that’s been with the community forever now! Gabe decided to step down to focus more on her company, Doppelfoxx Publishing. It’s a new Pub House that furry authors can publish with. You can message her for more details! We appreciate Gabe for helping as President with the short amount of time she had, and wishing her the best on her future endeavors!

April is also election month! Guild members can shoot their shots at positions within the Officer crew. To go after a certain position, you can make a post on the Discord in the “guild officer elections” channel. The deadline is the end of April to announce candidacy.

Don’t forget that the Cóyotl Awards for 2025 are still open for nominations! They close next week on April 5th.

Contact any of the Officers if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. We’re here to help you the best we can!

Thanks for reading! Keep on writing and supporting your fellow furry authors!
