If you see this, it means I likely posted this art using PostyBirb, an app that lets you post art and updates to multiple sites at once. It's a great app that's helped me increase my reach. If you need anything from me, I am most active on DeviantArt, and after that, Twitter, and under that, FurAffinity, so those are the best places to contact me. DeviantArt is my preferred method.

Otherwise, I may take a while to respond to a note or message!
