Hi Xyliacs! THURSDAY UPDATE! (a wee bit early...) Hell and highwater did not come, and so here we are. Charlie seems to be softening a bit to the idea that he many be someone other than who he is...(That's confusing.) The Livy fanbase continues to grow, and why not? Who doesn't love a Corgi- but especially one that talks! Thank you everyone for your generous donations. As some of you know, I have a legal battle I am facing (for my kids) and my attorney fees are likely to be daunting. Every bit helps. So thank you. I hope that you are enjoying Nigel's Opus! Is is true that Xylia finally makes an appearance?!!! Wanna get this gift incentive? Just click here, donate $5.00 or more and get Chapter II (the Chapter I synopsis is included). Coming soon are some extra incentive gifts, if you are in a mind to be uber generous! Here is a teaser for an upcoming painting of 'Claudius' . Tychia will soon follow. These paintings will be part of the upcoming Xyliatales 2009 calendar. And Livy plushies? Really? The Xyliacs Club continues to add more members all the time! Very cool and diverse group it is! I am really enjoying 'meeting' all of the readers that have joined! Thanks for reading and believing! See you Monday! ~B
