Genesis Whitmore first entered into the fandom (as Genesis Cook) via a few fan letters she sent to Albedo and Hepcats in the early 1990's during the black and white comic explosion happening at the time. She found copies of Critters and Usagi Yojimbo and began trying to learn off of them and discover other similar comics. The internet was not as developed back then, so she met her first true furry friends via penpal. And it was through them that she entered into her first fanzine, a Canadian based APA run by Growl called Fur-Thest North Crew.
From there she was hooked and loved the fact that there was a fandom of people who enjoyed drawing and writing stories about anthropomorphics as much as she did, and has been relatively active ever since.
She first drew herself as an anthropomorphic cat, but switched to a fox in 2006 for various reasons. Her persona has always been called simply "Gen", as she feels that since her RL name is odd enough, her cartoon alt can have something a little more normal.
