I have created a new page which chronicles the efforts of fans to get a sequel to The 10th Kingdom. I admit I wasn't on the internet from the beginning (Feb/Mar 2000) so I might have missed any beginning campaigns that were started before I took my first steps into cyberspace (July 2000) but just click the link below to read about the ones that I was here for and remember. :)December 11, 2004 ~ It's been a long time since The 10th Kingdom first aired and Simon Moore hinted in his letters to fans about a possible sequel called House Of Wolves where we would get a closer look at Wolf's life and history in Queen Riding Hood III's 2nd Kingdom and perhaps get to see Wolf and Virginia's marriage. Currently there is a new petition that fans can sign asking for the House Of Wolves to be created. If you would like to add your name and/or leave a comment, click here.

Thomas Gibson, Nancy McKeon, Brian Dennehy, Dianne Wiest and Randy Quaid star in this four-hour mini-series event. The natural disaster drama is about three enormous weather systems that ultimately collide over Chicago, creating the worst super-storm in the nation's history--but only after they first cause the national power grid to collapse, making it impossible to warn anyone about the impending disaster.

October 14, 2004 ~ Ann-Margret is in a new action-comedy movie called "Taxi" that was released to theatres on Oct 8th. In the movie, she plays the zany alcoholic mother of a cop named Detective Washburn (Jimmy Fallon) who is a bad driver and needs the help of Belle, a lady cabbie played by Queen Latifah, to chase a group of women bank robbers. It's sort of a cross between Beverly Hills Cop and The Dukes of Hazzard.

October 11, 2004 ~ Hello Everyone. As Prince Wendell would say, "I'm back!" Yes, I disappeared for awhile. Zero Catch which was my previous web server deleted my entire 10th Kingdom website (which unbeknownst to me, you are required to update every 45 days) so now I'm over here at Geocities and hope that I never have to move again. I still need to check for broken links and update them but I have my pages (all 70 of them!) back online. :)
