The sun was bright during August, but the heat and storms didn’t hide themselves, testing our endurance throughout the month. We powered through and made it to a new month— and the leaves are beginning their colorful changes as our reward! Welcome to September, everyfur!

A huge reminder that we have the Book Bundle coming up in October! FWG members can fill out their application in the form below and have their book part of an entire wonderful selection of furry works. Authors get a share of the proceeds! We split the proceeds between all the authors, with one extra share that the guild keeps.

Find the Book Bundle form here! https://forms.gle/nMVXyyzWGhtCTg347

We’ve created another quick and easy way to support members of our guild. On Bluesky, we now have a Starter Pack for FWG Members and FWG Associate Members! If you’re part of the FWG and would like to be part of the Starter Pack, then contact the President or the Vice President and we’ll get you on the pack. If it gets full, then we’ll just make another one for more members! Help your fellow furry friends out and check out their works!

Find the Starter Pack here! https://bsky.app/starter-pack/furrywritersguild.bsky.social/3mrqiuhsbsn2m

Taking breaks is never a bad thing, my fellow writers and authors. Those breaks are essential to refuel and refresh our creative outlets. Don’t feel bad if you ever need to step away from a WIP to focus on anything else within your life. Pressure creates diamonds, yes, but it also creates rubble. Make sure that you’re not putting too much pressure on yourself and keep your mind stress free!
