Hello there! I'm Selkie. I hail from just about smack dab center of the state.
I consider myself a furry artist, though I have dabbled a little in suitmaking when I have the time and funds. I love any excuse to put on a costume, so suiting is quite fun for me. xD You can find my fa here.
I like a little bit of everything, really. As far as video games go, I love Zelda and Pokemon. Terry Goodkind is my favorite author, and I enjoy anime as well though I haven't watched all that many series (Ouran High School Host Club, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood, Black Cat and Clannad to name most of them lol).
The idea behind totem animals fascinates me; I chose the bobcat for my sona because the symbolism and totem meaning behind the bobcat really fit me. The name 'Selkie' is actually a nickname that was given to me by my best friend's family, and it reflects that the symbolism of the seal was a really close match for me as well.
So that's a little about me in a nutshell.
EDIT: Need to add some tidbits because this always seems to get me into trouble with folks:
I'm very reserved. This is just a part of who I am. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do NOT take offense to my quietness. It's part of the reason why I am a feline.
Getting offended over my personality quirks or trying to force me into acting against my nature is the quickest way to actually irritate me. I promise you, I am not running around brooding about how much I hate you if I don't immediately throw myself into a conversation or if I'm not the last one to leave a meet.
I'm a feline for a reason. Don't expect me to spill all my deepest darkest secrets when I've only met most of you once or twice. The bobcat totem is about being a secret keeper and listener, not about running my mouth just because I can. Thanks for understanding.
