Welllll...I don't collect furry art, nor do I role play, but I do enjoy drawing anthropomorphic stuff. I grew up with Tom & Jerry, Looney Tunes, Tex Avery cartoons, and Laurel & Hardy and The Three Stooges as my comedy sources. When I was a tiny kid, I watched "Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch", "Krofft Supershow" (I liked "Wonderbug" the best, but I've always liked cars), "Scooby Doo", "Speed Buggy" and "Fangface". That was up until the age of eight. I actually stopped watching cartoons when I was in my very early teens (14 or 15), although in later years I might watch an episode of "Tiny Toons" or "Animaniacs" if it happened to be on. I generally don't spend much time in front of the television. I certainly don't watch any modern-day cartoon shows (I don't even use the cable service).
Most of my early "anthropomorphic" stories were actually more science-fiction than anything else. The Skunkworks stuff proved popular, so I spent more time on the porn aspect of it rather than the actual story aspect, and have been struggling to bring the actual stories back to the foreground. I do believe that while both the "Caterwaul" and "Penance" stories feature anthropomorphic characters, they may also appeal to fans of serious crime-noir, action, sci-fi and/or horror stories. Time will tell, I reckon!
