Subject: Thanks
Well, I wasn't going to mention it, but since I've been
catching up on a few weeks worth of digests and enjoyed
reading the other nominees' notes, I'd also like to say
thanks to whoever nominated my Dark Knight Before Christmas
parody for the fanfic awards. You're very kind.
I sheepishly have to admit that I didn't really know what a
"filk" was till I saw I'd been nominated in that
category. I just wrote it 'cause it snuck into my head during
a long late-night drive, kept growing, and refused to leave
except through my keyboard.
Now I feel like that Moliere character who was delighted to
learn that, without even knowing it, he'd been speaking
in prose his whole life.

Subject: My recent fan fic and YKYBWTMFKW...
Greetings to all,
Recently I wrote a story called "Hero in the Darkness" that was very well
received, and I thank everyone for their encouragement and requests for a
sequel.
I was working on the sequel when my computer had an accident. I backed up
my email, but the backup did not work, and I did not realize it until it was
too late. My sequel was in my "drafts" folder, so it is gone. :o( Perhaps
it is a blessing, as I thought it was not that good anyway...
So, I am working on a *new* story, it's in the planning stages. I will work
on it when I can.
YKYBWTMFKW...
You're discussing ways to keep criminals from stealing your car...[like
lojack, the club, etc] ... and you mention the best deterrent of all...the
vampire in the trunk!

How about just a sticker saying..."This car is protected by Lucien

Posted with permission from McLisa - Thank you :)
Hi all!
I'm sorry to say that with exams I have been no mail for
near to a month but times are a'changin'!
Attn to CANADIAN list members especially:
Starting May 2 I am traveling to the Maritimes from BC, I
plan on doing the round trip in about 43 days. I am
traveling with 4 other students (all girls, early to mid
20's)- on a student budget. We are driving an RV
(overheight vehicle). We've got 4 days in Toronto, Ottawa,
Montreal and Q.C. each, as well as time in Halifax (gotta
stop in Hubbards tho), St John's NFLD, PEI, Winnipeg &
Regina.
I need some advice, especialy for the big four cities, (my
first time east of Alberta):
PLEASE REPLY OFFLIST.
-> places in the burbs (30 min to 45 min commute to "city"
is fine) where we can park the RV and take a bus/(subway?)
into town for the day.. while you are at it, which cities
have subways and how much does transit cost?
-> What do we see and do in your neck of the woods? Really
unique things (nothing too hokey), funky neighbourhoods,
historical places, giant things, scenery - short hikes are
good.
-> Can we get away with spending three days in any of the
above cities and not miss too *too* much? We'd like one
more day on Newfoundland and don;t know where to cut it
from.
-> places in the burbs where we can park the RV overnight
(9:00 pm to about 7 am), for free. I know that places like
UBC offer $3 overnight parking, Walmart is free too...
(there MUST be a Walmart somewhere). We will be doing some
camping (about every 5 days to dump some tanks and fill
others), and lots of night driving but for the most part
parking lots and roadsides will be out nightstops.
[Contrary to what some people may think I KNOW that places
like this exist, we have them in Vancouver and there are
tons in Victoria, it the way my family has roadtripped. You
know, that neighbourhood ballpark just down the street
where people mght leave a car or two overnight..., if not,
where is the nearest Walmart or IHOP? (dare I ask? someone
with room in their driveway?)]
THANK YOU!!
:)

Subject: Question for Fanfic
Greetings all,
I seem to have misplaced my copy of the Forever Knight compendium, and;
therefore, need to submit a question to the list.
What was the name of the cyber-smart guy that Nick used to create his false
background information?
Thanks in advance to any who can assist!

Larry Merlin filled the computer systems with a false background in
"Hunters". Aristotle came into the picture with "Forward into the Past"
where he helped Nick arrange for the disappearance Katherine Barrington and
her assistant.

Aristotle was the vampire who relocated other vampires from Forward Into
the Past. Larry Merlin was the vampire from Hunters (I think) who "fixes"
all of Nick's present records when one of the other cops sees that his
background info is all missing from his computerized file. His speech to
Nick about "you should have done this righ in the first place" prompts
Schanke to compare him to his accountant.

This or a bumper sticker saying "Vampire in Trunk" would be great fan
merchandise. What a conversation starter to get new people interested in
our favorite show.

Hi,
was recently looking at the list of nominated stories and saw Molly's Danger
Zone and A Little Talk. These I could not find on Mel's site or on the FTP,
nor on the crossed swords page. Does anyone know if it is posted on Molly's
own site and if so, could someone list the addy?
Thanks,

Subject: Easter Blitz Count Down! *11*
Only *11* more days till the BIG Easter Blitz: April 23rd!!
ALL Forever Knight Fans!!!
The time is drawing near for everyone to come together online as a united
force and show our loyalty and devotion for our favorite program "Forever
Knight".
As we count down to that very special time, lets all keep in mind that we
have the power to bring it back to the Sci-fi schedule!!
Many other fandoms have done this and have had thier shows returned... we can
do the same!! wouldn't it be fantastic to have it back? to have Marathons
again?
If you love FK, if you want it back, if you dont want the Powers that be
think they have won, and can take our show away without a fight, than
prepare to show you are out there!!!
Besides the Easter basket that will be packed with e-mails from you the
fansitting on Bonnie Hammers desk, at approx the same time, lets make sure
they have more e-mails than they can read!!!
Please take today to make yourself heard by tbtp! E-mail Sci-fi now:

Sorry if I'm more than necessarily confused. I thought we were supposed to
wait until Easter Sunday to send our messages to Sci-Fi. But this seems to
say we can do it ahead of time.
Or is Kristin, sneaky KtKer that she is, trying to get us all to send more
than 1 message?

We all know that alot of online fans might be out of town during the Easter
weekend,so we encourage those that know they will be away to send thier
e-mails to feedback ahead of time..
naturally in the meantime,until the actual blitz begins, we would ask that
everyone e-mail feedback on a daily basis as well.
