Heart and Fur Spotlight - Plans for Modern

Hello. C J here. I know I’ve flooded this site with posts over the last month or so. I’m going to take some time off from posting so people can read some of them. I’ve checked over the last few months of views and reliably I have noticed a few things. Food posts get views slowly but steadily, especially desserts. Novel samples and novel writing advice get views quickly in bursts. Video game updates with images get a ton of views. Cool final card game art in my hand drawn style gets views in large bursts.

But what gets the most? Anything with the name Heart and Fur in it. I’m going to take this to heart, pun not intended. I have time to pursue other more creative projects now. I have about 40 images left to draw for the core card game and I also have the video game reduced down to just making and sorting 3D assets forever. Both of these projects will continue indefinitely but neither can or should take up a full work day. So it’s time for more Heart and Fur.

I’m currently finally reading fantasy novels again as well. I’m going to go get myself a library card soon so I can get more of them. Time to resume work on the mountains of text that go into a Heart and Fur book. This also adjusts some of my plans a bit. Heart and Fur is supposed to have art from the entire fandom in it regardless of style or media. This means I can finally find a use for the budget I have for this year and the one for next year.

Outside art will no longer appear on cards. That job falls to me only to establish the setting’s look and feel. So, time to really get to work planning and writing Heart and Fur Modern. This should be fun.

Let's All Be Friends, No Really - Part Two

Hello. C J here. I’ve updated my plans to make a Discord server for everyone here and on Facebook. Making a Discord server to my knowledge costs money. However, making a Facebook group does not. I’ve made a few of those over the years as well for various reasons. I’m going to look into this soon and then add the links here and in the menus here as well. I’m certain a Facebook group is what we need. I’m planning a number of chats within the group. So far my current plans are as follows. Art and Artwork Health and Wellness Food and Baking Magic and Spirituality Writing and Software NSFW I’m planning a private group but if I can get it open entry without a form or sign up page or anything. As for rules I’m going to reuse some from past of these I’ve done. Everyone is Welcome Be Polite Advertising is Allowed Follow the Content Ratings The Facebook group will take some planning but not any actual effort to build. It’s that simple. Thanks. C J Mcpherson

Chocolate and Barbecue Sauce and Truffles Oh My

Hello. C J here. I've got two new recipes for everyone today. I meant to type up a third but for the life of me I can't find the paper index card I wrote it down on. I will have to make it again and post it later once I double check I have the right proportions. I know what's in it but the proportions are done by taste. It's for Asian style ginger baked beans as part of my Asian-barbecue book I'm working on. The book might actually end up being cards for the card game because the recipes are so simple they fit in that format. That makes my job easier. Here's our two recipes for today. The first is a new Asian style barbecue sauce I invented from scratch. This isn't based on an existing sauce. It's the product of a lot of planning and research. It's great. The second recipe is for my final draft scratch made dark chocolate. This stuff is good. I still have some of the batch I made three days ago on hand. It's too tasty to eat. There will be a mil...

Four New Recipes for January

Hello. C J here. I've got four new recipes for everyone here. We have everything from Chinese chicken to homemade hot apple cider. Enjoy. The Emperor’s Potatoes Here we have the first food item I ever finished designing for Food of the World – Carthia. I tried three combinations of traditional Asian ingredients and pasta under the assumption that I was doing Italian-Chinese food for the book. I could not for the life of me get any of them to be exciting. They were fine. I don’t eat fine. I got bored of the pasta thing and then thought to myself, ‘what happens if I swap the pasta for another starch? What about a potato?’ It worked. Really well. It worked so well I named them The Emperor’s Potatoes. They’re mashed potatoes and I left the skins on because I like vitamins and then that got me thinking about the traditional medicinal food of Ancient China, ginger. Could I put ginger in a potato dish and have it work? Yes. I can. That surprised me. Be warned, these are almost dangerousl...
