Congrats to all the Coyotl winners! Not spoiling anything to give people a chance to see for themselves.

New graduate in the house! Our son (with @utunu.bsky.social) just earned his Bachelor's in Behavioral and Social Sciences, magna cum laude! Here's how he chose to decorate his graduation cap. It was a really nice ceremony as bonus.

I was amused when this resurfaced in my feed. donewiththebullshit.quora.com/Brazilian-co... I think it was from a couple of years ago. Still true.

I've sung my praises a million times and i'll sing them a million more, I wouldn't be writing my own novels if it wasn't for Far Flung by @utunu.bsky.social! If you love gay psionic fennecs, nerdy hyenas and a splash of sci-fi, I highly recommend checking it out! <mindhug>

ADHD notes. Making two batches of sourdough crackers, a pan of brownies, and way too much homemade blueberry ice cream. A flurry of activity & then the realization that we managed to make everything BUT dinner. I just recalled this tonight when thinking of crochet stitches. The struggle is real.

New book review of Tethers Torn by @utunu.bsky.social! "An intriguing follow up to Far Flung that dares to dive deeper into dramatic territory while while still maintaining the borderline slice-of-life vibes that make this series so special." #FurryWriting #FurryLit #Booksky

Today we present “The Fourth Death” a poem by @utunu.bsky.social. #FurryLit #Poetry

I just finished reading this, and what a treat! I won’t spoil anything, but it’s left me chomping at the bit for the final part! Loved every page <3

While waiting for my starter to do it's thing, it's time for some sourdough crackers to use up some of the excess. This batch will have steak seasoning on one and everything bagel on the other. Smelling good already! #sourdoughadventures #starterreadyatmidnight

This is what happens when your sourdough starter & discard are misbehaving. Even in hibernation they exploded. The discard stays in the fridge and shouldn't be active at all and I overfed my starter to keep it happy while I was at TFF. Apparently it was ebulllient. #TFF2026 #sourdoughadventures

Hi folks! The e-book for 'Tethers Torn' is now available! I send this stuff out manually so if you don't receive it within 24 hours after you order, please send me an email or ping me on Bluesky here. You can find it at my online store: mapakuvillage.square.site/s/shop

Seven left! Help me find them loving homes, reposts appreciated <3 Pristine quality prints are 8 USD, but I also have a few Grade B prints for 5 USD. c:

I just finished Tethers Torn and Utunu continues to be my favorite author ever. If you like polyamorous furry sci-fi please give this series a read, it's wonderful! <mindhug>

Finished this tonight READ FAR FLUNG THEN READ TETHERS TORN‼️

Hi folks! Another plea from me. :) If you've read any of my books (Rafts, Echoes, Far Flung, and now Tethers Torn) and feel so inclined, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE leave a rating on Goodreads (and a review if you'd like!). It helps promote, and as a self-published author, that's really important. <3

We apologize for this oversight. Since the initial report, this chicken has been safely reunited with her owner. #TFF2026 #furryfiesta #nightowlmisfits #runawaychickens

Breaking news for any of our guests who have adopted one of our chickens over the #TFF2026 weekend. We've had a report that at least one chicken has an adventurous trait that was not previously documented. We apologize for this oversight. #TFF2026 #furryfiesta #nightowlmisfits #runawaychickens

Last day of vending at TFF tomorrow. Come see us in the Artist Alley at table C5 for incredibly cute handmade plushies!

Cover reveal time! As always, by the wonderful @chutkat.bsky.social 'Tethers Torn', the sequel to 'Far Flung' (and book two of the trilogy)! It will release in March, and I will open for preorders relatively soon, for those interested. I will have it at both Furnal Equinox and Texas Furry Fiesta!

"Far Flung" by @utunu.bsky.social you know what you need for a single trip? Psionic fennecs in space. #AMoRaR

Hey all! I’m once again looking for work hours to pay my upcoming rent! I’m open for more portraits to paint in November alongside some normal work hours too as I get back into steaming; I’ll take anything and everything! Thank you for reading and reposting!

New post: “Review: Far Flung” https://giants-club.net/articles/review-far-flung/ Utunu’s science fiction tale dazzles with its world-building, although it’s more slice of life interlaced with charming romance than epic adventure.

Proof that I do not have photoshop. But here is where we will be at AC regardless of my mad computer editing skills. :)

@utunu.bsky.social is finally home after a flight delay of over 5 hours. He might be a tad exhausted but look at the beauty he brought me from @homemadehorrors.bsky.social. I now have a guardian of my yarn!!!

Dragonstorm Studios is coming to Furnal Equinox 2025! And better still, @utunu.bsky.social will be joining me in his first ever Canadian appearance, releasing a new book: Echoes! 😀 Come for the art and books, stay for the unhinged humour. 😉

"Far Flung" has made it into the quarter-finals of the Self-Published Sci-Fi Competition 4! www.lecari.co.uk/2025/02/spsf... #farflung #scifi #fennecs #hyenas #utunu #space #worldbuilding #readthisbook

Excited that my table runner just got here in time for packing up for MFF 2024! I'll be next to @utunu.bsky.social at the back wall. We are N22 and N23.

Reposted from SPSFC on Facebook. Possibly the first review of SPSFC4 is up! "Far Flung" by Utunu nets a 5-star review on Goodreads from one of the judges- www.goodreads.com/review/show/... Also that cover is fiiiiiiiiiiiire

Dragonstorm Studios is now the official Canadian distributor of @utunu.bsky.social's Mapaku Village! dragonstormstudios.ca/store/booksh... Both the award-winning Rafts and now Far Flung are available from my webstore. 😀 Just paperback for now, but the hardcovers are coming! #merch #furrylit #lit

Another 5 star review for "Far Flung" by @utunu.bsky.social from The Novel Approach! What makes this notable is that this is a mainstream reviewer, not specifically from the fandom. thenovelapproachreviews.com/2024/09/20/r...

If you already have a print version of Rafts, Utunu will give you a discount on the audiobook if you provide him with a photo of your book! Send it to [email protected]. Furthermore, Utunu is giving coupons for between 15% and 30% off the audiobook, depending on how creative your photo is. :P

'Rafts' now has an AUDIOBOOK! Amazing narration by Nico Janssen! You can get it on Audible, or if you want a DRM-free version where Amazon doesn't take all my money, you can get it from my website for cheaper! mapakuvillage.com I also give discounts if you already have a print version of Rafts. :)

The charming new sci-fi novel Far Flung by @utunu.bsky.social is really inventive and has great character work you can get it here mapakuvillage.square.site/product/far-...

My new science fiction novel is now available for pre-order! Fennecs! Hyenas! Planets! Psionics! Feels! Curry! All this and more can be yours soon (releasing July 5)! Pre-order here: mapakuvillage.square.site/s/shop And please repost!

CadmiumTea did a wonderful job with this! Bori and Tuther, the two fennec protagonists of my current WIP science fiction novel, which should be out in March.

The Queer Indie Award nominations just opened (@qiawards.bsky.social). Would love it if someone nominated Wolf of Withervale *hint*... But remember to nominate other books you loved, too! (Rafts, anyone?). The form is here: qiawards.wordpress.com/submissions-... Voting will be in January 15th-19th.
