Sears Radio Show   26 October 2017 Australian / New Zealand Xena Fans Wanted For Australian Magazine Article Feature On How Xena Changed Your Life Heads UP!  Please pass this on to all #Xena groups on Facebook / Twitter / Other Social Media: If you are Aussie and or a Kiwi Xenite, this notice is for you. I've been contacted by the Features Writer of That's Life magazine here in Australia. They would like to feature a Xena superfan (which is pretty much every fan) and in particular women who have been really touched by Xena in some way (I didn't write that, Beth, the features writer wrote that). They are looking for fans who have been inspired by the show and how that has changed their lives ie (having a Xena themed wedding, changing some major in your life etc). It would involve a phone interview and sending some pics. The article is not a gotcha interview (if you are worried about this). You will have a chance to preview the article in full before it goes to print. So if you are interested, get in touch with me and I'll give Beth your details. Requirements: You must be an Australian or New Zealand Xena fan. Xena must have touched your life and you have made changes because of her You're willing to tell your story Okay? Awesome. If you are that fan, contact me Xena FanFic Featured Bard: Iseqween - Classic Fiction Updates with 5 more Xena Classic Fics Supergirl Injustice 2 Comic Sees Supergirl Come To Wonder Woman's Rescue!

A Fly in the Ointment  Gabrielle seems to be living the life Xena dreamed for her in the previous post-series finale story “The Ghost of A Smile,” but with some problems and possibilities neither of them expected. Continues in “Suns of The Passed.” Echoes of the Battling Bard A wannabe storyteller interested in Gabrielle and Xena meets someone who teaches him that the line dividing dream from reality can be as tough as it is thin. Just Be Ready Fills the gap in this ep between the time Xena is freed from the dungeon and when she says at the palace pool, “Don’t thank me, just be ready” for Gabrielle to have her vengeance.   MaryD's Fiction Apparently yesterday I gave you all the wrong link to my play A Widgie Knight!   All right here is the CORRECT Link to A Widgie Knight Radio Play (#LesFic set in 1950 Australia).

But now it lives as a play and that is exactly what is should have always been. Over the coming months we will hone and build upon the current experience and play to make this the new entertainment the audience deserves and craves. I am exceedingly proud of the tremendous efforts of all involved. Lucy's voice has never been better, the costumes and make up work of Barb and Stef are next level. Nick Bassett and his team have made a living breathing NYC in a warehouse. And Michael Hurst breathed life and molded the clay into a real thing. I hope you all get a chance to witness this special entertainment event.
