Shasari

I'm a Writer, Photographer, Furry, former big cat handler, advocate for tiger survival, avid outdoors-cat, novice sailor, and avid reader. Happily mated to my mate Shunaka, and I live in the Bay Area of CA.

I'm also a pretty quiet person, and usually don't say much unless what I have to say I feel is important for the time, for the topic of discussion or for the person(s) I'm speaking with. I can seem to be very shy and reserved, yet it's because I think out what I want to say (mostly) before I say anything. Sometimes I have put my paw in my muzzle with embarrassing results, but don't we all at times?

My favorite films are Powwow Highway, Thunderheart, Smoke Signals, The Fifth Element, The Lion King, The Abyss, The Golden Compass, Dances with Wolves and Waterworld, just to name a few.

My two favorite books are, well one's a series.

First I'd like to make mention of this book. Neither Wolf Nor Dog - On Forgotten Roads With an Indian Elder. It's a very down to earth book, not pretentious in any way shape or form, and it's a very good read.

The second is the series - the Sholan Alliance series by Lisanne Norman. For obvious reasons (the main characters are anthro felines) I really enjoy this series.
