TerraMG was and still is one of my favorite writers in the furry community. I won't lie and deny that some of that has to do with my own kinks presented, but a large part of it is the characters she puts in. I get to see them stress out and question themselves a lot, really struggle internally over external issues. That speaks to me on a personal level and has influenced my own writing on longer series, to the point where I get frustrated in having to put in some outer conflict when the real meat should be the struggle of having two people talk. At least, that's what I like to write. I don't know if people like reading that over the smut. Doesn't matter to me, I deliver both as does Terra.
A few years ago, after my book got rejected a few times I was pretty much in a negative spiral when it came to writing. I was still doing it, but nothing really clicked. I tried another novel but lost steam at around sixteen or so chapters (you can probably read all of it by searching my Patreon/Subscribestar). I tried writing short stories but I didn't have much drive. I remembered when I used to write smut, but something didn't click.
When I saw Terra had opened commissions, I jumped at the chance to commission her. I had a pair of characters in my mind, just concepts really, and she helped bring them to such life that I wanted to explore them. If you've been following me for long then you can probably guess those characters are Helga and Amethyst. I pretty much gave the concepts, then stole the characters (in a polite way). Getting inspired is something I find rare nowadays, and I'll admit inspiring others is one of the checkboxes I consider for a good creative.
It was through Terra I also met Danaume and others. I followed Dana for years as a fan of their humor and style, never knowing they were friends. Now I'll admit my life has had its ups and downs, but the people I've met through the community when I started interacting more really helped me find some bearing. It's not perfect, but I wouldn't replace it.
So, here's a small thanks, done by Kandlin who I also met through Terra after years of following their stuff. Hell, I could link Kand to me getting back into furry content to even see Terra was doing commissions.
And now I'm here doing commissions myself and having several novellas under my belt. As of now, I got like, 900K words written since the start of Covid. I've even gotten to rewriting parts of my old novel as I should have years ago, rather than editing one thing and calling it an entirely new manuscript.
I got Terra to thank for that. So, thank you for inspiring me, Terra. I hope I can say the same for you.
