Xiath:

It has been a little while since I posted the last update so I figure it's due time for another one.

My father is doing a whole lot better now. He is at home and is even active. I am cautiously optimistic that we may be able to return in a few weeks.

I plan on trying to keep a regular schedule once we do return. With that being said, I need some help. The fact of the matter is that FursonaPod is running out of topic ideas fast. I hate to basically beg for something but I would LOVE to hear any topic ideas that you can come up with. Just remember that it has to pertain to the Furry Fandom in some way or another. Just send an email to listenermail@fursonapod.com to give us your ideas.

One last thing. I have a series idea, or rather, a sister podcast idea called  'The New Fur Survival Guide'. I am going to need your help with this. What I want is for you to send in any tips or words of wisdom that you would like to give to new furs. We all know what it's like to look around forums and see the same questions asked over and over again by new furs. What I want is to have a place that people can link new furs to that will help answer those questions, along with give them general advice about how the fandom works. Please send in a wide variety of suggestions. This is such a wide subject that I may even consider making this a free standing podcast that is hosted on this site. Some ideas I just thought up are:

New fur 101,

What is 'furry art'

What are 'furry conventions'

What is 'fursuiting'

Furry Art and other works 101,

How to properly commission artwork (or any other type of work),

What is 'gift art',

How to become a 'furry artist',

How to know when to start doing commissions and how to handle doing commissions,

Convention 101,

How to plan for your first con,

What to bring to your first con,

To volunteer or not to volunteer,

Paneling,

Fursuiting 101,

How to act around fursuiters,

Tips on how to fursuit effectively,

Where to find a fursuit and how to properly commission a fursuit,

Tips and resources on how to make your own fursuit,

*Chart key.

Bold text will be the name of a series within the podcast,

Normal text will be individual episodes.

This is only what I was able to think of in a 10 minute period of time. Please give us more topic ideas! We could make this a full blown project.

 I wont make this series until we have enough words of wisdom from the community. So please send in your words of wisdom. The topics also don't have to be long ones. 'The New Fur Survival Guide' will only contain the topic matter and wont have other segments like FursonaPod does. What this means is that each episode will probably only be between 10-30 minutes long.

Before I get emails asking this: No,  'The New Fur Survival Guide' will not replace FursonaPod, it is only going to be a side project. If we decide to do it that is ^^.
