Hi, I'm Lloyd, writer and fox, welcoming you to my new and improved user page!

About Me

I've been writing for about five years now, though most of that was analytical and essay type-stuff, but I'm trying my paw at short stories and I think I'm making a good start. My TF tastes lean towards the canine/vulpine/feline, and I also like "miscellaneous" transformations. These are mostly obscure inanimate or Xanadu stuff, as well as stuffed animals but since every plushie TF story I've encountered is blantant porn at best, I've given up on finding one of any quality. I also enjoy mental changes in which the person is unaware of the change itself as it adds a sinister air to the story in my opinion. An odd thing though is that I have this aversion to horses I can't explain, for some reason the very mention of an equine will make me stop reading a story. In my spare time I play World of Warcraft (Alliance mage, level 80, Thorium Brotherhood server, look up Fenimore if you're in the neighbourhood!) and various other RPGs. One the non-electronic side of things I collect Yugioh cards (got an awesome spellcaster deck)and I like to read, the Deptford Trilogy being my current material.

Here's a link to some of my favorite stories on Shifti.

Notes On My Writing

I recycle names in most of my stories, so don't be suprised to find the same ones poping up as I add more stuff to Shifti. I also procrastinate alot when writing and have trouble committing to a single story idea, which dramatically inflates the time it takes me to write.

Shameless Self-Promotion

Lost World: Set in the Blind Pig universe for pure laziness reasons (I don't like explaining things) this is a furry => human TF. My thanks to Cubist both for editing, and for putting it on his anthrozine site.

Bureaucracy in Action: When a fun-loving force meets a literal-minded object.

Convoluted Quality: There is something known as the Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest, a competition to write the worst opening sentence to the worst possible novel. Out of boredom, I made an attempt to write the worst opening sentence to the worst possible TF story. If you think you can do worse, please add to the page.

The Fool in the Fox: My first foray into the Pig and Whistle setting introduces Jonas, a fox about to make a very entertaining delivery.

Case Briefing: Leon v. Stewart: The main problem with handling teefers came from how to define them in a legal system designed for humans. This case and the subsequent ruling provided the landmark precedent that shaped the NAR's courts.

Interview in the Fields: Since I lack the stamina to write a full story about the Leon/Stewart lawsuit, I'm going to cheat and instead write about Leon being interviewed about the case twenty years later.

Stuff by Others

I did not write anything in this section. In here are stories written by others that I have recieved permission to repost here. Enjoy!

Mind Over Matter: Arto "FoxOfWar" Mässeli wrote this as part of the Xmas Xchange a while back. He thinks it's good, but his brain seems to disagree. The title is not the one used in the original story, because I can't find out what the original title was.

Random Thought

Lessons from World of Warcraft: Almost any problem can be solved through poking.
