One of our Xena family is in Need....This is a shocker! Rob sent a message about Dayna Grant @Daynastunts (#Xena, #WW1984 #AshVsEvilDead etc) Stunt co-ordinator has been diagnosed with an unruptured brain aneurysm - If you can help, please go here - Rob's message is below. https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/stunt-woman-dayna-grant-brain-surgery From Rob: Danya Grant who started as our assistant stunt coordinator on Evil Dead Rise has been diagnosed with an unruptured brain aneurysm. She has taken some bad knocks over the years. She recently took one on the Amazon show and another a few years back on ASH. She survived a facial impaling on Legend of the Seeker. She has worked with me on pretty much everything I have done in NZ going back to XENA. Now she faces a real challenge. We are doing what we can to raise funds so she can get surgery in 3 weeks times. She has a wide net of friends in the business but 10 or 20 dollars will help. If appropriate please pass this on to your crew or friends. Thanks in advance for your generosity, Rob Tapert Dayna in Xena Dayna in Ash Vs Evil Dead   Dayna in Wonder Woman 1984     22 June 2021 Message from Adrienne Wilkinson and Announcement about Xena Loot-A-Palooza Message from Adrienne Wilkinson and Announcement about Xena Loot-A-Palooza We couldn't get together this year for a charity dinner, or a live raffle event, or a convention, or or or.... so, I've been compelled to create a new event that we can all rally around and have a #GreatTimeForAGreatCause. I've put together our biggest event ever.... a giant raffle we are calling LOOT-A-PALOOZA - all to be done remotely so everyone worldwide can participate. This raffle is specifically for Xenites, as it is a collection of ALL THINGS XENA. More than 50 items that I have gathered over the years - trading cards, magazines, production stills, collectables, memorabilia, signed items, autographed photos, one-of-a-kind items and very special items including 2 framed, limited edition photos signed by Lucy & Renee, and all of it can be yours for the price of a ticket!   Link: http://adriennewilkinson.com/lootapalooza/ THE DETAILS: 222 tickets are available. Tickets are $100 each. No limit on number of tickets you can purchase. You can purchase tickets as gifts. Just let us know what name to list the entry under. Tickets will be sold through August 22nd (unless they sell out sooner). Raffle will be held online on August 23rd (or earlier if the tickets sell out prior to August 22nd). One winner will win all the loot!!!! The items will be shipped immediately to the winner (and yes, it can be shipped anywhere in the world). A couple of the items have previously sold for thousands of dollars on their own, and now all 50+ items could be yours for a raffle ticket! Use the items for your own collection, share them among your Xenite friends, donate them to charity events or as fundraisers for other projects. I'm giving first chance at tickets to those of you who have participated in previous event. Tickets sales will open to everyone on June 22nd. Link: http://adriennewilkinson.com/lootapalooza/ If you want to participate without buying tickets, you can find the donate button on the same page where you can donate any amount. Thank you for helping to spread the word. This is truly an event for Xenites, so the more Xenites I can reach, the more will have a chance to join us for a chance at this wonderful collection. And as always, the funds we raise support families in need - this year to those suffering with food-insecurity and medical expenses. As always thank you for your generosity, your beautiful spirits and your willingness to join as a community to support others while also having a wonderful time together. I appreciate you all so much! -Adrienne       8 June 2021 Xena Fanfic - From The XIPPY Reviews - 8 June 2021 Xena Fanfic - From The XIPPY Reviews - 8 June 2021 Home From The Sea by Melissa Good My favorite Uber couple return - Dar and Kerry - in this short Halloween story. Dar tells Kerry about the mansion that is near their condo. In true Missy fashion, this story is well written and thoroughly entertaining. http://ausxip.com/fanfiction/mgood/dar-and-kerry/homefromthesea.html How Thin The Veil by Bel-wah Bel-wah is one of my favorite bards and she once again she delivers this stunning piece of work. We have a look into the mind of a Xena the warlord but with a twist. I won’t ruin the story as it has a real twist at the end which I’m sure many won't expect. Another sterling performance by a bard who writes so beautifully. http://ausxip.com/fanfiction/h/howthintheveil.html     7 June 2021 That Time Xena Was Directed by Anson Williams From Happy Days - Den of Geek Here's an interesting article from Den of Geek about one of my favourite episode "Remember Nothing" - Season 2, Episode 2 - and my montage of the episode can be found here - those were the days when 500 x 500 pixels were normal...ah memories! Not like today...what we could have done with with high res images...bring on a Xena reboot so we can find out! That Time Xena Was Directed by Potsie From Happy Days Xena saw happier days, but was drawn back to the ways of the Warrior Princess in “Remember Nothing.” In a time of ancient gods, warlords, and kings, a land in turmoil cried out for a hero. But they got a Potsie. Hello sunshine, goodbye rain. Xena: The Warrior Princess, in its second season, was already at the forefront of progressive heroics, and its star Lucy Lawless embodied the power of the feminine mystique. Xena was forged in the heat of battle, with the power, passion, and courage to change the world. And she had many gifts. Anson Williams, who originated the role of Warren “Potsie” Weber on the network TV hit Happy Days, helped wrap a pivotal episode, “Remember Nothing.” Read More     Read More Archives
