Debi Pick Marquette : This is to let everyone know that Gary had another setback and is weakened by this big time. He is eliminating all stress at this time and I don't have a lot of other information right now, but will be passing it on as he tells me.
All I am asking is that whether it was prayers or healing thoughts for him, please do the same now.

If you have a message for him, that would be great, as he has told all of us that he truly feels that those helped him tremendously the first two times around. However, because he get's overwhelmed by feeling that he needs to answer private messages, please don't contact him that way. Please leave your message here for him and they will be sent periodically, just so he knows his wonderful friends have not forgotten him.
Thanks and I know whatever you can share for him will be greatly appreciated.
    jessizero: I will be praying and my sister will be praying too -
    karenina: Very good idea, Debi! My prayers are with him! Hey Gary! No stress, my friend. Let Debit keep us up to date and just convey on your health!

Please let all your friends and fans know and hopefully their fans will see it.. I am sure we can reach more then ever this way. Thank you in advance to our wonderful FS family.

    To Gary: "During times of illness and stress it is sometimes difficult to maintain your faith. These times are tests, and if we can accept them as such, it is easier to maintain our faith. All things come from God, and all things return to God.

Debi Pick Marquette : To our wonderful family here. Prayer is needed more than ever,
This is my most recent message from Sally.

We have power for now.its been raining steady since yesterday afternoon. Please pray for us and all Floridians. This momstercane is coming in with gusts up to 190 mph! Right now it looks like it's coming in south of Tampa near Naples/Fort Myers as a category 4!

Thinking of you all today! I hope you are well and blessed. I will update later if I have power!

Love and blessings,
Sal xoxo's

    jlsavell: My thoughts are with everyone and every helpless animal in the path of this Herculean Storm.

    I can very well relate having gone through Hurricane Laura in August of 2020. One of the deadliest and strongest storms to hit the Gulf Coast of Louisiana at 150 mph. It created a swath of destruction of a 100 mile radius.

    Thankfully, the storm surge which was predicted from 8 to 15 ft did not happen, but the devastation was massive.

    Today, many people in Southwest Louisiana are still struggling to put their life back.

    Alarmingly, Ian looks to be more destructive and their storm surge is frightening. This is a life and death situation.

    I was impressed by the reports of emergency preparedness which appeared to be well planned and organized.

    My fear is those in the most vulnerable and compromising areas chose to stay or had to leave livestock or even pets behind.

    My sons and I chose to stay and ride out Laura because of our animals and though we were hit head on, we were not in the storm surge area.

    However, but thankfully, our area flooded but did not enter the home. The morning after looked as if an atomic bomb had gone off.

    We were without power and water for weeks.

    My thanks and gratitude went out and goes out now to first responders and electricians which hailed from every state. They worked tirelessly in the sweltering heat and swarm of pesky insects in the deep Louisiana bayous.

    I understand first responders are on stand by and as we speak, I know many journeyman and first responders from my community including my sons are gearing up to help with the recovery and cleanup in Florida.

    My thoughts go with each and everyone of you guys who are going through this now and , also, to all across the fast waters it has hit. -
    Debi Pick Marquette : It's Thursday Sept. 29, and I was able to hear from Sally again today as their internet and power is going in and out. They have a mess with over 18 inches of rain so far, and their dock and much of their yard is now underwater.
    But thank God, they are safe and so is their dear family that they also worry about and need prayers for. I will keep everyone updated as I hear more, and please everyone continue to pray for Sally and her family and for the whole state of Florida right now. -
    Sally Law: Thank you all so much for praying for me and my family. It is well with us! Our dock is underwater and we have a few days of work cut out for is in the yard, but we are safe and dry! My family and I believe in the power of prayer and in the Lord who answers when we call. Many around us in our lakefront community did not do as well. Homes, businesses, schools, and streets here and in many places are completely washed out. Please continue to pray for Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, and Virginia. Please donate to redcross.org specifically for Hurricane Ian relief. Thank you all! Sal XOs -
    evilynne: Sending prayers to you and your family as well as all those affected by this storm. Evi -

It is coming in in Naples Florida crossing over Central, Florida we are in a few Jacksonville with the rest of my family lives. I was a family in Georgia too. Thinking and praying for you all and so thankful I have such a loving community to be a part of. Sal XOs -

Debi Pick Marquette : Does anyone else ever click on reserve to enter a contest; then it brings you to another page where it looks like you're supposed to confirm it, therefor click on reserve again.
Then I think it signs you up twice and charges you twice for it.
I did write Tom about it but got another member who just said it sounds like I double clicked. However does that mean I shouldn't click on the second page?? It happens quite a bit to me and wonder if this is just me or anyone else?
    Jannypan (Jan) : I do see your name twice on several contests and even on the list of members, Debi.

    If I understand your question, this is what I do ~

    SITE CONTESTS ~ there is no fee, when you click one time to reserve a place, above that it says 'there is no fee' ( or something like that) click one time to enter and you're done. It gives you the opportunity to enter your work, but you can ignore that until you're ready. That's all you need to do.

    MEMBER SPONSORED/DAILY WRITING PROMPT ~ click on reserve a place and you're done. You can enter IF you want right then, or come back to it. But just click once on reserve a place.

    YOU CAN SEE THE CONTEST YOU HAVE RESERVED UNDER THE "my" TAB ON THE TOP.

    PERHAPS YOU'RE CLICKING TWICE THINKING YOU NEED TO EXIT THAT PAGE.
    Just click once. After you reserve your place, then click on 'read' 'messages' or even the Fan Story tab to get back to where you can continue. Don't click again while on the contest page as that is like reserving twice. -

Thanks to All at FanStory was posted today. It is a Milestone Post. Post number 50!
    Debi Pick Marquette : I know this may sound silly, but I have been so excited about getting here!
    I know there's more to come come and everyone gets them, but I' l am like a little kid on Christmas. (as my husband always tells me)
    I have been waiting to get to my 50th & milestone, as I wanted to thank everyone for the reviews and feedback, and let my dear friends know how much they mean to me
    I've never felt better about doing something for just me in my life. It's better then a trip around the world, because the ones that count are already here, from all over. Thank you Tom and the committee also for what you must have to do to make so many great authors, while making it so their hears too can be full and blessed at the same time! Cheers to FanStory and the Magnificent and Talented Authors! -
    LisaMay: Your words don't sound silly at all, Debi! Being excited is a great way to feel, loving what you do and finding pleasure in the undertaking.
    Congratulations on your 50th posting. FanStory is all the better for having You in it - a writer of skill, variety, and humanity.
    Best wishes for your next 10,000 postings. xx

    Pam (respa): Congratulations on Milestone 50, Debi. It is not silly to be excited. This is something new on FS, and it shows what a difference that appreciation can make.

    You make the site special because you care and enjoy writing, and sharing it with others. As readers, we get to let you know what it means to us, and that is special, too!!! -

FanStory wrote to Debi Pick Marquette : Only One Place for Me finished third in the contest "Life Lessons poetry"


Debi Pick Marquette : I knew that God sent me here for a reason and I thought that perhaps it was because I now have more time to write and He thought I could do more here spreading His message of Love. And I believe that maybe to be one reason, but now that I have made so many wonderful friends, I believe He wanted me to be a part of a fellowship of wonderful authors, that have come to be a very important part of my life!

    karenina: You are quite the blessing yourself! Remember that!

Debi Pick Marquette : I am a very emotional writer, as I completely, and sometimes embarrassingly wear my heart on my sleeves!
I would drive my family crazy if I didn't have my writing to throw my emotions into, because the feelings I have in my heart bubbles up into a loving volcano if I don't have a place to release it. However when I'm no longer here, they will never be able to say,
"I wonder if mom (or grandma) loved us??" They hear it everyday, whether they like it or not! 😊
    Melody Ringo: As a mom and grandmother to eight precious grands, I can relate, Debi! Writing is an emotional outlet for me too! -

Iā??m being held Hostage was posted today. It is a Milestone Post! The first post by this author and a first milestone.
ABOUT
Location Maple Lake, MN
Born October 19, 1954
Gender Female
Member Premier Shield
Joined August 2021

Interests
Faith, Family, Writing Flowers
I started writing poetry when I was 8 years old, which in my poem, " Why I Write", tells of why that was almost the end to my writing. However, my mother's loving hand in the teacher disaster, changed everything for me!
Then when I married & started my family, I still loved to write, but didn't have as much time. Since Covid, I had extra time on my hands, so I started writing more often again. After writing a poem for everyone in my entire family,
(husband, children, grandkids, siblings, etc) I was able to accomplish my biggest bucket list item, by having a book made for each of them, called Expressing Love for my Family, with my Prayers, Poetry & Pictures. Each book is the same, so hopefully they can enjoy reading each other's poems.
It was something that I always hoped to do, while still alive.
Now I can concentrate on other writing, that I hope to accomplish while enjoying my time on FanStory.

5-7-5 An Introspection In Seventeen Syllables Moments I Have Lived
I have found it rather amazing that an existence of time can be expressed in such few words and yet provide a specific and definitive explanation.

Great reviews:
Raw with emotion - love and pain, regrets and hope, truth and tragedy. It touched me at points, made me choke up.
