About 3 years ago now, I got a dsi for christmas. Little did I know that the dsi and a book bought for 20 pence would start me on the road to finding the furry fandom. The main feature I used on the dsi was the web browser. I origionally used it to find fokelore tales, which at the time I was interested in. About a year later (two years ago) I went into my school library to find the Subtle Knife. The book that comes after Northern Lights (better known as the Golden Compass). On the day I couldn't find the book so I had a quick browse of the books for sale. A small book caught my eye. On the cover seemed to be a person changing into a hawk, the title read: ANIMORPHS. I cannot quite remember the full title, I know it was the third book in the series. Apon finding 20p in my pocket, I bought the book. The story was full of animal transformations and I began to wonder what it would be like if people were trapped in the bodies of animals (like Tobias from the book). A while later and I had read a few more books from the series. One book I read was an interactive book written in the second person (where it puts you into the story and you make decisions). I loaded up my dsi and began googling interactive transformation stories. One result that came up was this: http://www.transformationlist.com/story/game4/index.html This site had one huge interactive story, which was written by the readers. I love that site and wrote hundreds of pages myself (under my old non furry name Jake). I loved writing and reading the site and really liked the parts where the reader becomes an animal. Eventually, I began to do random Google searches to find similar stuff. And through websites such as Deviantart and Furaffinity. I began to find more stuff that i liked. Soon I made myself a Fursona, despite still not knowing about the fandom. I made him because I was intrigued by Trenton Foxbear on deviantart. Eventually I found the furry fandom and here I am now.
