+<li>A young phoenix whose flame burns brightest while in the service of others. A kelpie who will lure you to a watery ride, though it might be your last. A dragon who sees the best in everyone except the one who matters most…In the start of a brand-new anthology series, you can find 11 tales of the impressive, the haunting, and the courageous. May the wondrous worlds and fantastic creatures contained with it cause your spirit to SOAR!</li>

+<li>Best Other Work<ul>
+<li>For the first time, the Furry Writers&rsquo; Guild is proud to announce an award for best other work, a new category in 2020.</li>
+<li>Writing takes many forms beyond just words on a page, especially as technology makes other formats more and more attainable to independent authors. I am always fond of saying that authors should experience and learn from formats other than just books. It is a good way to round one&rsquo;s education.</li>
+<li>Formats such as graphic novels help you understand how best to pair words with images in a delightfully evocative style. Formats like audiobooks and podcasts let your words be heard, broaden your audience, and perhaps even give new voices to your characters. Formats such as interactive fiction turn your readers into a participant, letting them experience more directly the lives and actions of your protagonist.</li>
+<li>This year, the nominees for best other work were:<ul>
+<li>The Voice of Dog, a short-story podcast organized by Khaki</li>
+<li>and Fox Spirit: A Two-Tailed Adventure, a work of interactive fiction by Amy Clair Fontaine</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li>The winner of the 2020 Cóyotl Award for best other work goes to &ldquo;The Voice of Dog&rdquo;!</li>
+<li>This podcast started soon after the COVID-19 pandemic began closing down vast swaths of the world as a way for readers to find new stories. With its focus on uplifting works, it has been a bright spot to my week, as well as for many others. Khaki and the other readers breathe life into works, taking on characters, and letting us read even when we&rsquo;re driving!</li>
+<li>While the podcast is the work of many constituent authors and a good number of other readers, recognition must still be given to Khaki for spearheading this effort, with nearly 200 episodes now. Khaki is a retired writer, editor and publisher who once founded Bad Dog Books, FANG and ROAR, won an Ursa Major for writing Heathen City and who now embraces the furry fandom through story readings at The Voice Of Dog podcast and photography.
