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!

We will hold it from 1 September through to September 4, 2021! If you haven't signed up, go to https://charity.ausxip.com Xena Press TV Insider has an interesting list of fan favourite Xena eps. They had it right UNTIL they hit FIN2 - I want to know which fan thinks FIN2 is a great episode.  FIN2 is not on ANY Xena fan favourite list. Whoever thinks that Xena staying dead and leaving Gabrielle to fend for herself is a great ending doesn't understand Xena and Gabrielle's relationship and what the fans wanted to see. FIN2 belongs on the cutting room floor.

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 Miss Fisher's Modern Murder Mysteries Season 2 Premieres on AcornTV I love this show - it's Australian, it's well done and acted. It's BRILLIANT. It's second series begins on June 7 on Acorn TV. It's set in Melbourne in 1964 and well worth a look! LOVE it.
