:: Extension For Grandfathered Free Accounts ::
On May 15th we announced some changes to our Free Membership, including
a reduction in items to a maximum of 5. For full details please see:
         "Important Changes To Our Membership Plans" 
While the Grandfather period for pre-existing free memberships has elapsed,
we have decided to extend the Grandfather Period. The new grace period will
expire November 15th, 2003.



:: ** Please Remember To Update Email Addresses! ** ::
If you're still using your OLD Stories.Com email address anywhere, this is an
early reminder that email service for Stories.Com addresses will end 12/31/03.
This will, for the most part, remove a lot of the SPAM being sent to our servers.

To ensure yourself a smooth transition, it is important that you update your
contact information anywhere you are still using a Stories.Com email address
before the service is turned of. (For our newer members: We changed our
address from Stories.Com to Writing.Com 1/1/03... this note is only intended
for members with accounts started under our Stories.Com domain name.)
