  I have sad news. Everyone remembers my friend Janice Logan? I had raised a fund for her a few years back? I went to visit her because she had found out she has breast cancer. Well I sent her a christmas card like I do every year. Her sister, somehow got my work number and called me to let me know Janice passed away in September. Janice's email account got closed down and the sister had no way of contacting me or any of her other friends from the web. I am numb. It has not sunk in. I have her stories on my web site. They are in a place she wanted them. Please all take the time to maybe read one or two. Sigh......life is to short......hug the ones you love.....and remember this: Life is not measured by the breaths we take but....by the moments that take our breath away. I am glad I got to know Janice and meet her. She definitely took my breath away.

• Who Are You Now by JSwrdsmth on The Fiction of JSwrdsmth(ALT)
  The Story picks up where the episode "Soul Possessed" ended. That ending left a lot of questions unanswered. Such as: How long are Xena and Gabrielle going to be in control of the bodies? If Annie and Mattie surface again, what is Annie going to be like? How much of who she is was determined by the software that is the soul and how much by the hardware that is the brain? How's Mattie going to deal with losing a husband and gaining a wife? Does she even like girls "in that way"? The story is my attempt to answer some of those questions.
