Wanted you all to be the first......this announcement goes out on the web today!!! Dear Friends and (Hopefully) Fans, Here’s hoping you remember us, and that you all have the same email addresses! We are hoping that this will be good news for all – we have decided in this season of resurrection and hope, to actively relaunch Virtual Moonlighting. On Sunday, April 24, you will be able to rejoin Virtual Season Nine, Episode 1, which was already in progress! New episodes will then follow at regular intervals. We realize that you have been extremely loyal and patient, reading and rereading all of those reruns. So, on Sunday, click on Episode One, and you can continue on the journey that started with Maddie’s big announcement. We thank you all so much for all of your encouragement. For all of you who have written, pleaded, begged for us to please continue, we thank you, and hope we have made you as happy as doing this is making us. Please join us for Virtual Nine – perhaps the most wonderful and challenging year in Maddie and David’s lives! With thanks and appreciation, The Virtual Moonlighting Staff www.Virtualmoonlighting.com

YIPPY!!! Happy Birthday to me...Happy Birthday to me!!!! So excited about this!!! I am sure this is a huge job, so if you need help with anything please let us know! I am happy to chip in if it keeps this story going. (As long as I dont have to write it that is - but I give great ideas). Now if you excuse me...I have to go do a happy dance now.

Dear friends,
Thank you so much for all the kind words. It has been a very gratifying day...have received lots of great emails from all over from people sharing our excitement.
Please forgive me if I don't post and answer every one of your comments. Those of you who know me know that sometimes I get uncomfortable with effusive praise and attention.....as well intentioned as it may be.
I really hope the work speaks for itself, and when you read it on Sunday, you feel the same way. Thanks so much....you have helped make it an excellent day!

Good start, VM staff, and I'm particularly pleased to see Jen & Connie join!! Wouldn't it be a good idea to announce here on board whenever a new chapter comes out, for those who haven't sigend up for getting eMails? Just sayin'.

Thank you ladies for your suggestions. And thank you for reminding me -- we are so happy to have Connie and Jen as part of the team. Welcome, welcome! I guess it's been long enough that we probably should reiterate how we do our season. We work on a full season plan, and since we are only dealing with characters and not real actors, we don't have the hurdles caused by things that happen in their real lives....so we can stay pretty true to our plan. We don't post in chapters, we post in full episodes, just as you would see on your TV. The Virtual scripts are fairly long....not quite as long as the original ones, but we try and follow the format used. We are still working on tweaking the plan, but we will be able to give you a tentative "viewing" schedule very soon. We wanted to be able to give you the first episode completed, and set up some of the background...where we are...so we can move on into the year in M&D's lives. And while this season will probably see D&M test and embrace the domestic part of their relationship, we still hope to keep the spice and the passion while exploring their infanticipating! We try to do two thing in every episode. First, in our virtual world, it is April 1993.....and we will try to be true to that period with the language, events and music of that time period or before. Secondly, we will try to include a case in every episode. We would be thrilled to know what you like and dislike, and any suggestions you might have. We do have a forum for the virtual episodes, virtualmoonlighting.proboards.com/ , and would welcome any feedback or ideas you would like to give us. We know lots of people have read -- we have had hundreds of page views in the last two days........and we thank you for sticking with us!! Don't be shy....tell your friends!

This was very interesting info Diane! Thanks for letting us know how this amazing story is made & will play out. I wasnt around when the other seasons premiered but found the site once you all had taken your break. I was hooked instantly! I had hoped you & other old or new writers would continue on from where you left off but wasn't sure that would ever happen. Ive seen many site where stories are never finished & this story deserved to be continued! I've read the new episode 3x already & like all the other stories i will re read this over&over again! Look forward to the rest of the ride with you all! Welcome to your new Writers Jen & Connie who have proved what amazing fan fic writers they are also already with thier own seperate stories! I don't know your other wirters but hope to read more by whoever helps with the stories! Best of luck for a great great new season!

Thanks again for the support.
We promised to keep you updated, so here's the skinny. We had a late night staff meeting last night (in our pjs), and I can tell you, we've got some pretty great great stuff planned for season 9.
You can expect the next episode around mid-May.
So if you want to "read" some reruns until then and share your thoughts either on the fanfiction thread here, or on the Virtual Moonlighting forum, we'd be glad to hear them.
