<p>Writing what’s important to us helps us to build styles, language, and stories of shared meaning. Fandom and subculture spaces provide authors with a meta-genre of sorts in order to explore this shared meaning. By leaning on each other for support, the members can build up a corpus of their own, something that resists commercialization outside of those spaces, and builds a stronger sense of in-group community.</p>

<p>Over the last four months, I’ve had the privilege of running two writing workshops and four writing classes within the furry subculture.<sup id="fnref:furryfandom"><a class="footnote-ref" href="#fn:furryfandom">1</a></sup> The first workshop took place at an online furry writing conference called <a href="https://oxfurredcomma.com">Oxfurred Comma</a> hosted by the <a href="https://furrywritersguild.com">Furry Writers’ Guild</a>, involving three authors learning about writing critique through the process of critiquing each other’s work through a <a href="https://twitch.tv">Twitch</a> stream visible to other attendees of the conference. The second took place at <a href="https://furcon.org">Further Confusion</a>, an in-person convention in San Jose, California, and focused on a more general set of sessions regarding critical reading and critiquing writing.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>My goal with running these workshops and classes was to explore what specific aspects of fandom and subculture writing can be incorporated into writing workshops.</p>

<p>It’s quite common to refer to furry as a fandom as well. I resist this phrasing more on intellectual than moral grounds, simply because there isn’t a core media that furries are a fandom. When asked, most furries will say that they’re fans of anthropomorphic animals or, more poignantly, themselves. <a class="footnote-backref" href="#fnref:furryfandom" title="Jump back to footnote 1 in the text">↩</a></p>
