You are so much fun tonight. I feel like I am at a big party with you myself. Don't tell anyone, but I am pretending I am your date for this party. Lol! Hey, I have a great imagination too! I'm no Marilyn Monroe, but I do have a birthday this coming week, and it is my party. (And I can cry if I want to) Oops, where did that come from? I must be thinking about a contest I just entered. Anyway you should have known better than to trust Tom! And it's just like that blonde bimbo to dump you for some Popeye wanna be. Seriously tho Terry, this one had me smiling too, just like the last one of yours I read. And yes, just like Helen to stay for the clean up. What a fun end to a week, as I always know where to go on a Saturday night to be completely entertained. It's either you or sit in the LR with the hubby and watch Texas Country Reporter. Which we both love by the way. Speaking of your home state, my youngest daughter and her family are there right now fishing in the gulf, after touring the RFD Building, stockyards and other amusing places. They fish for a week every year down south but usually from Louisiana access. They love Texas too tho. Well now that I have overstayed my welcome, I will bid you farewell my friend! Another great read!

    Sorry, just in a goofy mood tonight and couldn't think of a better friend to pick on.
    Can you imagine if I was still a drinker? Lol!

Pardon me for reviewing these out of order...

This one was such fun as you integrated so many FanStory and into the After Party!!!

I've read them both several times and really enjoyed them.

Sorry I"m late in reviewing!

Wow, you sure know how to get everyone on board and in the mix. Maybe that is why you were the planner for similar events. LOL. Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed it. Just wish I had a six.

This is great! Thanks so much for inviting me to the afterparty. I'm thrilled to have a conversation with the great Kate. Wouldn't mind an introduction to Paul M., he nearly made me swoon as a teenager.

You are an overachiever. lol You are now having a dinner party and an after party. This story is also well-written. I liked how you smoothly integrated the FS folks with the celebrities. That was well-done. The ending was a back to reality moment. Somebody must clean-up. An enjoyable read. Thanks for sharing.

    Sandra, thank you for your fun review, I will make sure you are at the next party. Terry.

    You are welcome. It is not necessary. I'm still reaping the rewards from the interview. I know so many more FS writers.

    Sandra, they like your writing,

    I am appreciative and flattered, but I must still be able to get my head in and out of doorways. LOL I have a 14-year-old dog that has forgotten he uses the bathroom outside, and I'm an old broad living alone. Thanks for being such a decent, good man.

    Your dog and I have a few things in common!

    Oh, Lawd knows Terry no you don't. Unless it's I find you both valuable. Shucks, that must be it. LOL

Another great party with such wonderful guests. I remember so well when the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan, as well as Elvis, with only the waist up showing on camera. Boy has times changed. Great job. Have a wonderful afternoon. Shirley

This was a truly fun read. You make it very easy to visualize all those celebrities schmoozing with FanStorians we all recognize. Nice mixture of dialog and exposition. I am only sorry I wasn't invited. Rod

Oh Terry, just wonderful! I did laugh - a lot.

I'm very thankful that I came in with Whitney (though not that Kevin was away on a shoot - huh just my luck!), you may not have noticed, but we went off to the ladies (oops sorry, that's bathroom to you methinks) at the same time and, while there, she sang me a private rendition of 'I will Always Love You', what a voice! Simply magnificent!
Oh . . . dear me. . .you don't suppose. . .oh whoops, I think I may have misunderstood the situation.

Poor Nomi, stuck between Frank and Sammy, I hope she got through the evening without incident, I didn't notice.

Oh my, I expect Tom Horonzy's in trouble now. Shame. Do you want me to go give him just one star on his next submission?

Good old Helen to help you clear up, it must have been quite a mess. Sorry to have scarpered just before, but I'd heard from Whitney that Kevin was now back at her place. . . but I don't understand, he wasn't!

Really enjoyed reading it Terry - and writing the review in fact. Great piece of work (your story, silly, not my review!)

Oh and I didn't know that Nora Jones was Ravi Shankar's daughter. So wonderful to learn new things while enjoying myself.

One tiny, little typo though, Charlotte has an o not an e in the middle.

    Sorry about the typo! I love your review!!! Nomi is actually a 79 year-old guy, so he was okay and told me later he did learn the handshake. We may do this again, thank you for reading, Terry.

This is a really interesting read for me. I enjoyed the way that there were so many celebrities attending the event. The way that you write about the bits of conversation among the guests, and describe what is going on, at the event, and talk about what different guests are doing at times. Very well and wonderfully written. I enjoyed reading this. Thank you for sharing.

I enjoyed the after-party as much as the original. The FS members you invited certainly have class and talent and fit well with your dinner party.
A great job!
Best wishes,
Mary
