Arilin Thorferra: Furries Larger than Life

Welcome!

I’m Arilin Thorferra, an author of furry fiction. My work always involves furries (anthropomorphic animals), nearly always involves giant furries, and often involves romance, adventure, and sublimated—or explicit—kinks. My work’s supported through my Patreon and book sales.

☞ I’ve written several dozen short stories ranging from science fiction to horror to comedy, with some recurring characters and settings running through them.

☞ I’ve also written several serials, ranging from related vignettes to full-fledged novels.

☞ And, I've written the occasional non-fiction article. (Which is to say, I have a blog.)

Current projects

August 2025: I’m sort of in the summer doldrums, as far as projects go. Mus Numena is coming along but I continue to be moving more slowly than I want (I really like to be at least a chapter, if not two or three, ahead of posting, but I’m barely managing to squeak in ahead of my self-imposed Wednesday deadlines recently—and I’ve had to have two skip weeks!)

Last month I reviewed Runa Fjord’s Dissolution; this month I plan to review Robin’s cozy lesbian romance Fairy Tales. I also wrote a brief article about my friend Tugrik, who passed away unexpectedly at the start of the month.

Beyond that, I have, well, ideas of what’s going to happen next after Mus Numena. There’s the as-yet-untitled Korps story idea, which will probably be fairly light on macro hijinks (gasp) but, if it comes together, should be pretty neat. I really need to get back to Nora from Big Trouble, too. Beyond that, I’ve revisited a Mensura novel which I only ran on Patreon and Fur Affinity, Hurricane, which I admit I had somewhat mixed feelings about. Reactions to it seemed a little muted and/or polarized, perhaps because it got into absurdly high “the multiverse is in peril” stakes or perhaps because its protagonist, Serrano the coyote, isn’t particularly good—or always even particularly interested—in resisting the temptation to smash shit up just because she can. You know what, though? I think the story’s pretty good. Is it publishable good? I dunno; it’s a real weird one. But maybe! I’d also like to do another “quieter” story sometime in the near future, maybe a sequel to Saida & Autumn, although I don’t know what shape that will take.

Conventions: I have tentative plans to go to Megaplex in Orlando at the end of this month, and I’ve registered for Further Confusion in January, although that’s still not a 100% go yet.
