I'm dreadfully embarrassed to discovered I apparently started this group and promptly forgot. I thought I'd try to get it moving a bit.

Who is everyone, and what's got you interested in Urban Fantasy? I mean, it's a pretty big genre at the moment, lol.

I'm Ashley. I like urban fantasy with it's potential to blend the real world with fantasy, and create something that's both recognizable and foreign. The book I'm working on now is actually sci-fi, lol, but this genre remains to be one of my favorites.

It'll be good to meet y'all! :D

There is a 13 year old girl missing from a town (Colorado City, TX) just 30 minutes away from my hometown. She has been missing since Dec 27 and her name is Hailey Dunn. No matter how far you are from this little town even if you are in another state or heck even another country by now I am begging for you to be vigilant and pass this on. When law enforcment were first contacted about this they would not issue an amber alert because of a technicality. The fact that no one had seen any vehicle in the mix was the technicality. I am sick with the fact that they let it go on for so long before they issued it. The sick bastard could be out of the state or even country (being in Texas) with her in the amount of tme they wasted. Of course, now there is one issued but it is now in the hands of us all around the US and farther to try and help this poor child. I am going to post some useful links below that have further details and pictures! Could you please spread the word and stay alert when you are out. REALLY look at any child that could be her age! If I were any stranger I wouldn't fault you for staring a bit harder in these situations. And please keep her and her family in your prayers?!

I know this was a very long message but this is more important than anything going on in my life! Is there anything more important in yours? No matter how much you may doubt this person would tunr up where you are, there is no facts that she won't. Children go missing all around the world every second of everyday! And if we can all pull together in these times of need we can begin to put a stop to it. Are you too busy to take a look and just get familiar with the situation and the girls face? Can you not do a big favor by handing out flyers to the stores you are already planning on going to? Can you not set down and really pray for this little girl to make a safe return home, even if you haven't spoken to God in years? Only we can put a stop to these viscious crimes by being vigilant and down right nosy even if others don't like it, because just one busy body neighbor could have just simply seen if she was approached or even seen where she was headed if they would have just been nosy! Back when people were scared to be a certain way because of busy bodies and snoopers it was harder to get away with stuff like this! I say we take our security back even if it means pissing off a few people and being labeled a snooper!!! So please for the sake of this precious girl, just take a few minutes out of your busy schedule to even alert one person. Because if we all just alert one person then that will alert all! Thankyou and tonight be thankful for the loved ones that you know are safe and sound.
