Hi Phyllis, another year has passed since you left us. I suppose you knew before we did that your Bowl of Stew partner, Thom passed away. Others have too. Basically FanStory is a writing site for the elderly! You'd hate what's happening now. AI has taken over and we are having problems with people cheating now, using AI (artificial Intellegence) to do their writing. Honestly, you have a job telling that it's not a human doing. Oh well, Tom is mad, he's losing the best writers because he's not really stamping it out. 

Do you have a rebirth party up there? Sorry I'm a bit late, there is so much going on, but I haven't forgotten you. Still miss you, and love you lots.  Save a good place for me when I come up! Love Sandra xxx

Well Phyllis, it's five years, I can't believe it. You are always in my heart, my friend, and I look forward to seeing you again. Save a place for me in the writing group you are bound to have set up. It's never been quite the same since  you decided to pop off to Heaven, can't blame you though. Fanstory has changed a lot, you wouldn't like it now, but of course you would stay because I'm still there ... just. I'm having health issues now. Getting old is not for the faint hearted.  Another birthday, but you are still younger than me.  I hope you had a huge celebration. If you see my mum, tell her I'm sorry and miss her. I know you will understand what I mean. Love you lots. Sandra xxxx
Happy Birthday, Phyllis, I hope you are keeping everyone on their toes up there. You never did let me know what it's like. I suppose you had to sign the secrets act. Lol. Well, it might be your birthday down here, but up there you are probably a lot younger, and will never grow old. Not like me! I still miss having you to chat to. Every year I'm losing more of my family. My youngest brother died last November. He was only 60 but he did what you did, told them he'd had enough and not to continue to keep him a live. I can understand both of you, but it's us down here that are left. We miss you. Have a lovely party, dearest friend. xxxx

Hi, Phyllis, another year has passed and I still miss you. I've read all your books twice now. There were loads in your short story collection I hadn't read before. That book joined my collection shortly after you left us. I can't believe it has been four years.  My brother joined you all last November, he was the youngest of us four. I'm the oldest and I had always thought I'd be the first to go. It knocked me for six and put me in hostpital all over Christmas and New Year.  It seems all of my dearest friends, and family are up in the Heavens having fun.  When it is my time, I'll be sure to look for you.  Still love you lots, my dear friend.

Hi Phyllis, Happy Birthday!  How fast the time is passing,  I'm having a short break from Fanstory, my health isn't that brilliant,  I need to relax a bit more. You remember Thom, your partner in Bowl of Stew? Well he left just after you died, he couldn't work, or write. Well, he came on FS again, but only for a short while. I guess that will be the last of him new. You made such an impact in you time on FS, and I really miss you and our chats. You were a wonderful friend. Well my dear, I hope you are having a great time up there. I'm chugging along down here.  Love and miss you lots,  dear friend. Sandra xxxx
I would like to say to Katy and  Mark how much your mom, wife meant to me. I'll never find a better friend, and the strange thing, we never met! Now that is friendship! I hope you are both doing well. Love and hugs, Sandra xxx

Hi Phyllis, it's 2023 already. I thought I'd give you an update, I still miss you unbearably, and wish  like mad you were still with us. Fanstory isn't the same now. Many are leaving, many coming up to you. I really hope you have the writing group ready. Well, I was Novelist of the Year 2022. I probably wouldn't have been had you still been with us. So, are you going to let me know what it's like up there? If you get a chance, say hi to my mum, and tell her I miss her too. Why are you all leaving me???????  Well, as you can tell, there's not a lot going on down here. I'm going to have a nebulizer, I never thought it would come to  that, but here I am, gasping and wheezing like a goodun! 

Love you  always, my dear friend. I'll come on for your Birthday. xxxx   Sandra xxx

Happy Birthday, my friend. Here I am again, wishing you were still with us.  I hope you are having a ball in Heaven, started a writing and art group, and still remembering to meet me when I come. Love and miss you, dear friend. 

Another year,  dear Phyllis, and I miss you still. I came on here to let you know I've not forgotten you, nor will I. The years are passing by, we are losing more of our friends, and one day it will be my turn. I trust you will be there to greet me.  I'm still reading your books, and still enjoying and learning from them.  Love you lots, dearest friend. xxxx Sandra.
I can't believe a whole year has passed since Phyllis left us all. I miss our chats, we shared so much. I hope she is looking down on us, she would be so surprised to know I reached number one novelist of 2020. I can just hear her now. Phyllis was my mentor, she was so encouraging, I am still reading her books. Sending love to you Kate and you, Mark. I will never forget her. xxx Sandra
I am so sorry to hear of this lovely lady's passing. I only recently became acquainted with her through our writing and found her words both exceptional and empathic. I deeply regret losing her and will miss her exquisite poetic thoughts and warm encouragement . I am sincerely grateful for the time I was blessed with her presence and sincere regard for us all...Eve York, evesayshi@yahoo.com
I am so very sorry for your loss, Mark and Katy. I got to know Phyllis as soon as she joined Fanstory and we remained close friends. Phyllis was such a prolific author, her novels and short stories are amazing. It was through her I began writing novels having only written poetry before. Through her encouragement, I managed to write a complete trilogy, it wouldn't have happened had Phyllis not been there to help me. We had many laughs, and tears together. She helped me through the loss of both my parents. I'll never forget her and will always think of her with love. God bless and rest in peace. Sandra xxx
