| STEPHANIE WILTSE'S HOTLINE UPDATE - 12th January 2002 (b) |
News from the Helpers' Network US for fans of Beauty and the Beast...
The Helper's Network (UK) Web Site has had been updated to bring you the
latest in Beauty & The Beast news. There's been quite a few additions and revisions this month, so it should be worth a visit.
Catch us at the following address:
http://www.simonhuggins.com/helpers/index.htm
And what a month it's been, with the news of a possible new series of Beauty & The Beast on the cards, the close of an era with Nan Dibble stepping down from the Helper's Network (US) Hotline newsletter, but the beginning of a new one with Stephanie Wiltse of Pipeline fame stepping in. A new column containing Darlene Sullivan's updates has also started on the site, together with an Episode overview from one of the most memorable episodes - A Happy Life in the Epilog journal. And lots more - see the list at the end of my ramblings.
May I start by saying A HAPPY NEW YEAR to all and fandom! May all your new year's resolutions last, and may this year be inspiring and bountiful to you!
Apologies if there's a little less content this month - I'm sure you'll understand, what with the Christmas Period having been upon us, and all. Sadly, our beloved cat of sixteen years was run over shortly before christmas, shortly after we fostered two other cats from a broken home! Life has its little ironies, but we have much to keep our hope up - I hope that these regular updates provide a little of this to others too. If anyone is interested, I felt the need to put my feelings about poor Mog's demise in verse -
A Passing of Wisdom - perhaps others out there have shared similar loss. It was around Christmas last year that my wife lost her father (about which I have written some verse in the past), so we're about due some luck next Christmas, I think!Anyway, lets all help keep the dream alive - if anyone wishes to contribute any stories, poems etc. to include on the web site, I would be thrilled to include them. If you have NON B&B related poetry, I'd be equally thrilled to place this on the companion poetry/literature related web-site, URICON AND ON (see below). Either way, send an email to webmaster@simonhuggins.com or reply to this email if you have anything that you feel others may enjoy or be inspired by - or if you just want to write a letter, express your feelings etc. to be included in the letters section on the site, or if you would like a web-based pen pal.
All the best, and eternally BE WELL in the new year and beyond,
Simon Huggins
