EE, I just met you, but I will miss you and your upbeat reviews and personality. I have often wonders about members who are very active...
Do they do anything else but write and review? Your 4:30 a.m. bedtime
explains a lot, but with this pandemic, there isn't much else to do but stay home...if you're retired. Farewell, but come back to us when you able. I'm sorry that I've been absent during most of your membership. I've been a member since 2006, so there's a good chance that when you return, I'll be here, and so will all the other FS members--there's always a light left on in FanStoryLand. You are very talented.
Cheers. LateBloomer

    I'm not leaving--I'm just not renewing my paid membership--meaning I cannot post or review.

    This announcement was inspired by my realization my fans would think I'd died!

    I'll be stopping by at least once a week to catch up with correspondence--I can still send and receive messages and read as I please.
    I invite you to peruse my portfolio for a quick LIZ fix--click the "magnifying glass" tab, then use CTRL-F to search for FLASH--or scroll randomly to play "Portfolio Roulette!" Since you'll only two cents for reviewing, you can just type a string of 150 ********** to indicate you stopped by!

Of course you need to do whatever is best for you, but I'll definitely miss your kind and insightful reviews. I'm glad I've had the chance to get to know you, and I've enjoyed our brief interactions in reviews and replies.

I wish you the best of luck in all your writing and other ventures.

I am gobsmacked and sad at this. I do understand, and had considered another site as well - but my health pulled the drain-stop. Just do what is best for you and be well. Do not wear yourself out or you will be no good to you! You are loved, dearest one...

Sorry to hear you are checking out, Liz. I guess you can't serve two masters. Where else do you post to, or are you publishing? Hope the year and your work are good to you. Bill

Well I will miss you here, and I hope you reconsider and decide to reopt back. You have been one of the most interesting, comical writers on the site, really high quality that we need on Fanstory. But good luck with your endeavors, and Write On ! estory

Hello Liz,
Six stars for such sad news is a mixed message - it's similar to 'liking' a someone's post about their dog dying.
I would like to think that you'll drift off only to drift back, but I take this opportunity to thank you for the very supportive role you have played and for the entertainment you have deftly provided.
Go well - stay safe...
cheers
phill

Hello Liz,
Well, you really know how to hurt a guy don't you? I feel like I'm just starting to get to know you, and you're leaving. What a kick in the pants. I've thoroughly enjoyed reading your stories. I love your sense of humor. Perhaps after a season at the other site you'll send them packing and come back and entertain us here again. In all honesty, I hope you can get a little rest. I understand not being able or willing to do a schedule as full as you've had. I'll miss you for sure.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

I have always enjoyed your witty posts and phrasing, like "one-star trolls out on trash-duty." Because life happens, I have missed some of your posts and look forward to reading your reposts. Congratulations on your remarkable achievement. You're leaving as the FanStory top, number one, best of all Short Works Writer of 2021. I hope your profile remains so I can read your past work at will.

It's been a gas, EE reading your posts. And you are going out with a bang. A number one writer with a trophy to prove it. I look forward to your reruns. Thanks for letting us know.

Best wishes to you. I admire your ability to write on two sites, I can barely manage one. Going to bed at 4:30am is quite a late night. I was unaware of the non-writer reviews, thank you for mentioning it.
