    happykat4: Phyillis, I asked fan support but I want to make sure I do things correctly. My question was about a previous post. The question is: I added an additional verse to a poem I have previously posted. I had reviews on it, but I want to re promote it with the new verse... How do I do this so it doesn't come across as though it is a new post. Can you tell me how to do this? -
    Muffins: Hi Phyillis, I changed the rating from a 4 to a 5. Sorry about the slip of the fingers. -

    Phyllis Stewart: Thanks so much, everyone. I enjoyed writing the books, but it was YOU who won the trophy for me, since it was my readers that pushed me to the top. A special thank you to Margaret for taking off last year to edit books instead of writing/ posting them. LOL! No one can top her for #1, and I'm pleased to see she has started a new novel this year. I'm looking forward to reading it, along with other books and works of the talented writers here at FanStory, my second home. Hope you all have a wonderful new year. And remember, the only resolution we need is "Keep Writing!" :) -

    judiverse: Congratulations on your story of the month win. A very well-deserved honor. judiverse -
    Phyllis Stewart: Thanks to all of you readers, who really are the ones who won, since it was only because of terrific, loyal readers that I ended up where I did. I love you guys. :) -


Phyllis Stewart: First, thanks to all who voted for my winning/tieing 5-7-5 entry called "A Terrible Injustice." I never write that sort of teensy tiny thing, but I couldn't resist that prompt, with the true story I had.

Anyway, just really want to say that those who review an entry for a contest and say "good luck in the voting" but don't bother to vote keep the vote totals low. Winning/tieing with 6 votes when the third entry had 5 votes is largely luck, since there were not enough votes to make a fair contest, in my not-so-humble opinion.

I wish more people would check the contest voting booths every day. You may find some stuff there (stories, poems, and authors new to you) that you really like. Read a few entries and maybe you'll get interested in what folks did with the topic. Maybe you'll even decide that one of them is worthy of YOUR vote. Just takes a few minutes, and it improves the site for all, including YOU. :)
    flylikeaneagle: I have met many new fans by reading their works on voting day. I review these that i like and vote daily. My favorites I bookcase. Merry Christmas!
    flylikeaneagle -
    Selina Stambi: I am a regular voter too, Phyllis. Preach on sista ... this message needs to be heard! -


Phyllis Stewart: Yay! I'm typing on the classic version again. I'm HOME! :)
    Selina Stambi: Hurrah! Hurrah!! Amen!!! I'm home too. I felt like a displaced person. -
    Margaret Snowdon: Hi, Phyllis - just wanted to congratulate you on your ranking for lst Novelist of the Year - as we are off to Portugal on the 15th for a few weeks - also to wish you good health and happiness for the coming New Year.
    Margaret -
    Phyllis Stewart: Thank you, Margaret. Hope your trip was everything you hoped it would be, and you come back relaxed and ready to write. Or edit. Or both. :) -


Phyllis Stewart: Thankfully, Tom has gotten the message from the majority, and we will have our site back to normal in the 'classic' version.

Remember New Coke? Cola lovers complained, so Coca Cola Company brought back "Classic" Coke, so they called it. It didn't take long until both New Coke and "Classic" Coke disappeared in favor of plain old beloved Coca Cola. I predict this site will follow the same path. But it won't matter to me. I'll be drinking Classic FS myself.
    granny goes viral: And thank you for the speed as well. I am surprised we didn't shut the whole thing down. LOL. -
