Had another thought. (I know that's scary in and of itself) It has now been about 7 years since Ellen has posted anything to Tuck. I have sent her emails, and left requests for contacts in a couple of places. I did not know her, outside of her writings and a couple of contacts by email, and as cantankerous as she could be, could have just blown me off. BUT, that's a long time to not even leave an update. She and her SO had split after many years and her health was not on the top line. I am truly surprised her site is still up and running. If I may suggest, for the many new comers and even old timers like me, go to her site.... http://www.barkingduck.net/ehayes/writings.htm and save them off before they vanish into limbo like so many other sites. Same with Brandy and Tigger's site. I know they are still around, but those sites could vanish and take those excellent tales into limbo..... http://tigger-n-brandy.net/
Just an idea

Luckily Ellen and Sapphire's sites were pretty simple HTML based sites which are quite amenable to archiving so can be found on Internet Archive also.
I strongly suggest people financially support said archive also as it might be the only link to a lot of lost stories.
What we really need given its existence that the knowledge that such sites ever existed else be saved outside of the archive lest we would never know to look for them in the first place.
BC may not be as amenable given its much more complex nature but Piper and other web savvy folks may know more about that than I.
