Help Randolph Mantooth and Kevin Tighe get stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame:

I can't believe they each don't have one yet! Should have happened years ago.

A true story I want to share. It has no title, just an amazing experience I thought some of you may be interested in, as it is tied in with Lakota Indians. Click here to read it. :o)

XEROX IS DOING SOMETHING COOL . . . now with a partner website :o)

If you go to this web site, www.LetsSayThanks.com you can read about the details. Electronic postards are no longer available, but you can see how you can donate to the troops. Or just go to the partner organization here www.give2thetroops.org. We can never say enough thank you's, eh? Thanks for taking the time to support our military!

Here you'll find the latest additions to the site. Things may be slow at times, so extra space isn't needed. But I think this will be easier to keep track of what's what. The latest additions will be at the top of the list.

***Just a note regarding feedbacks - if you send one to the guest writers, please put a subject line with your email. Just the word *feedback* or *story* should work. Thanks! :o)

New! 10/04/24 Just a note. Have been MIA with the site lately. Sorry about that. I was working on stories but quit for a bit. Too much going on with everything to concentrate enough for now.

God bless everyone who is helping any way they can. Take care.

New! 12/23/17 Just a note. For anyone interested, I wanted to let you know that though I have some Christmas story ideas I am excited about, I did not get a chance to write on them yet. So they'll be up much after Christmas. :o) Real life has just been incredibly busy with work and other stuff we've been involved in. I may get a couple of short things done and posted, though. Not sure on what other writers from the site are up to story-wise. Have a very Merry Christmas! :o)

My means to do so is this and one other fan fic list. :-/ Hope to get it resolved soon.

It's for the October 2017 picture. :o) I was on a roll this month when we got wrapped up in rescuing feral kittens in the yard. Long story short, we saved 10 lives, 4 are in our house for now, 6 bottle babies are in foster homes being well taken care of. All will be re-homed through a no kill shelter or with people we know. So that has been my life aside from the normal stuff most of October. I just think of Johnny's line in Alley Cat..."What are you doing to my life?"...lol Actually, it's been beyond rewarding. :-) Happy Halloween!

August was a busy and rough month. I had one health issue, cleared it up with another but that caused another issue and I had to get over that. Things were looking up when *BAM*. . .here came another major setback, in a whole 'nother category. To put it more simply, I've had a very 'Gage' like pattern going. :o/ But rest assured, I am STILL very much into writing E! fan fic and having this site. It's just a matter of life cooperating. Take care! :o)

New! 04/05/16 On the Photo Stories page, a picture for April 2016, no stories for it yet. :o) Happy Spring! I've been lazy, enjoying no self-imposed deadlines on myself for stories and site updates. But don't worry, the site's not going anywhere. It's just been a needed extended 'vacation' for real life...lol But the ideas I have for stories are wanting out, the characters are 'tapping' me on the shoulder often... so I believe it's time to jump back in. :o)

New! 03/08/16 On the Photo Stories page, a picture for March 2016, no stories for it yet. :o)

03/01/16 Just a note: Well, I guess you could say I took a break from E! ... Sorry for the lack of activity, but there was this thing called the NFL and a couple of fav teams in the playoffs, then there was this game called a Super Bowl with my fav team winning. . .then this thing called the Daytona 500 came along. What I am trying to say is, I have been majorly distracted! lol

New! 08/10/15 On the Photo Stories page, a vignette for the July 2015 picture. It's by me and is titled 'Peace Pipe: Smile to a Frown'. :o) Am working on getting back into my other in progress stories. :o)

01/22/15 Just a note. The site will likely be quiet till next month unless a writer I already host sends in a story. My father-in-law passed away suddenly and unexpectedly last Saturday morning, so all the focus has been on family and such. Take care and God Bless.

Right now I think most of my guest writers are no longer actively writing or some are on a break. I don't want to add any new writers to the site, so for now it might be mostly my stuff. As always, I would like to thank you for making this site a part of your E! world. :o)

New! 08/03/14 On the Photo Stories page, a picture for August 2014, no stories for it yet. :o) This is kind of a 'stick Johnny in any situation' picture. :o)

08/01/14 Just a note to touch base and say "hi!"

. It's been a slow month on here. . .boy, is THAT an understatement, eh? lol Anyway, wanted to let you all know that August SHOULD be a little busier. :o) Hope you are having a good summer. Take care! :o)

New! 07/06/14 On the Photo Stories page, a picture for July 2014, no stories for it yet. :o) Also my email address is changing, it'll be posted on my stories page if you want to send any feedback on stories, but I will not be changing the old emails on feedback buttons.

New! 03/06/14 On the Photo Stories page, a picture for March 2014, no stories for it yet. :o) A year ago yesterday, I lost my mom. As you can imagine, my mind has been on that more so than anything recently, thus why not a lot going on with the site right now. Losing mom took all the wind out of my sails, time has helped get some back. Thanks for your patience and dedication to visiting the site. :o)

New! 02/27/14 On the site, as mentioned below, the new feedback buttons are on the author archive pages, though keep in mind there are still a few I need to work on so they don't have one yet. Those without an archive page have email addresses linked to their names on Guest Dispatchers for feedback purposes. Remember, some feedback buttons at the end of stories are still accurate, however this new way is the best way to send your feedback. Thank you for supporting the writers on the site over the years. :o)

New! 02/10/14 Just a note to let you know that the feedback system for writers on the site is going to change. With a few email addresses having recently changed, and my lack of enthusiasm to sit and go to every file and update them as I should (I know it's not being my best, but for various reasons I see time a whole lot differently now), there is soon going to be a feedback button on each archive page of each writer. Those who don't have a page will have a feedback button on Guest Dispatchers. Feedback buttons at the end of stories over time will hopefully refer you to the respective archive page. Most feedback buttons at the end of stories and other places will still have a working email address anyway, but once done, the new ones will assure that. I'm probably going to start on this project in a week or so. Should have done it in the beginning, but hindsight is always 20/20, isn't it? :o) Thanks for making the site a part of your E! world. Your support is always appreciated. :o)

New! 02/06/14 On The Valentines Stories page, a story by me titled 'She Bugs Me, She Bugs Me Not'. :o) Still working on Christmas and other stories. :o)

New! 12/22/13 On the CraftE! page, another different kind of greeting card. I'm kind of late with this, but it's been tough to get everything I want to done with working and all.

New! 04/25/13 Just a note: Hi! *waving*. . .after reading Randy Mantooth's blog today that a friend shared, I decided I probably should give you E! fans that take the time to stop by this site an explanation as to why it's been quieter than usual. Though I'm getting somewhat back into a routine after losing my mother in early March, I'm still not there quite yet. I've worked a little on some of the E! stories I have in progress lately, but it's slow going. 2013 is proving to be a year of both good and bad changes in life, as my daughter also graduates from high school soon, which is also keeping me busy. That's the good of course, but a little sadness there as well since mom never got to even see her as a high schooler. She lost her sight and memory of who her granddaughter was about four years ago. :o( I appreciate you visiting the site despite the lack of updates right now, and I know the writers who have trusted me with their stuff over the years and have given me the privilege to post it appreciate you as well. :o) Another good, I've got some very special memories with my family from back when E! first aired and the years it was on. It's always been a family fav and I can't thank the actors, writers, etc enough for the joy they gave us then and still do now with the wonderful shows they put together. I always think of my dad saying, "Jack Webb's got a new show coming on that's going to show the fire department with rescues and everything." Take care and keep enjoying E! where ever you stop in the fandom. :o) - Audrey

Have not had one until today. So I have added a couple of what I consider meaningful items to the September 11th Page today. :o) Also, the Light Humor section on my own stories page is now labeled as 'General and Light Humor' since so many of my stories don't really belong in any specific category.

Thanks, Ross! :o) Also, more facts added to the Facts Of E! Page, all these courtesy of Anne. She has been a tremendous help! :o)

04/16/10 Just a note, there was a technical glitch with Ross's wonderful story 'Camp Slugs and Mushroom Clouds'. The problem didn't show up on my end, so I thought it was okay, however no one else saw all the pictures she'd included in her story. My thanks for it being brought to my attention and it's fixed now (fixed twice!). If you down loaded her story, you may want to do it again. The visual you missed in one shot is incredible how well it fits the story. Really amazing. :o)

New! 04/05/10 On Guest Dispatchers, Ross's ongoing story titled 'A Work in Progress' is now complete. She revamped the story parts so it fit into 8. So look for the conclusion in Part 8, rather than a Part 9, like it appeared to be headed for. :o) Also a picture for April 2010 is posted on the Photo Stories Page. No stories for it yet.

New! 04/04/10 On the Facts of E! page, a few more facts have been added on three eps.
