hi jani,

I'm interested in the international faerie believers, but have found only the one page introducing it. yes, I know it's secret, but if I, who am the faerie believer of all time and make faerie pottery as a business, am not getting around to picking up and mailing an international money order, then I think that a lot of people wouldn't bother also. so what I'm suggesting is maybe a little more information and tidbits, examples of what's on sale, something more to entice me and make me sure it's worthwhile? just a thought. good luck

sincerely,  ju

Dear JU,

I first got the idea for the club, because I had so many people visit my site and  I'd get up to 50 Emails daily with questions of every type...questions such as did I know an artist, or someone who sculptures, or they want a tattoo, could I recommend one.  Some sent me stories and myths and names and books and will it went on and on and I realized there was a true need for a group to share info with a bulletin etc.

I talked it over with some of the people who wrote me regularly and they thought a club would be great, also we had a great site on gnomes which was also getting attention so  we started two clubs, not to make money, but to help us pay for a domain, and site charges.  (you see the free sites only allow a certain number of persons to visit, plus limit your space, so we got one that cost us right at $80 for our site every three months. Then there's the postage for prizes.

  • Originally we printed out the members certificate but because of 9/11 we  decided to make it available to our members to print their selves.  Plus cost of stamps kept going up and mailing it out of the USA cost so much many couldn't join for lack of funds, not to mentions the customs got so tight many of our letters were torn open and items lost to our members.
  • We offer a lovely fun site for members to enjoy and faerie dust is available to purchase additionally as is Gnome stones and address lables.
  • We offer both faerie and gnome bulletin boards to write messages on and also list our members under country and state, noting who is a  new member.
  • If the member has a website or sells faerie items the URL is linked, we hope this  helps the member with sales.
  • We offer contests, with kool prizes.....
  • We hope to have get togethers some day soon.. ..meanwhile we just have fun....

BULLETIN

........some of the bulletin messages are hilarious....one member has gone to Ireland and she left word that if she wasn't back in 2 weeks the wee folk grabbed her. Now I know that isn't the joke of the week but it was funny...and I know we all had a good laugh over it.

The people joining are fun loving, talented and good spirited and amazing enough of all ages!  Well, that in itself has made the club worth joining....I hope this has helped you entice you a bit!

Sincerely, Jani aka Marafae

ANSWER: Wow it's just been formed word travels fast with the Internet! This group is a wonderful but smaller version of Oprah's Angel Network.   The Faerie God Parents to random acts of kindness and also help sponsor those less fortunate.  It's was formed our first year, in 1999 by making lap blankets for the elderly, we  then added Treasure boxes sent monthly, we've gathered clothing for grandparents who took on 6  grandchildren after their parents death, we helped a single mother and her children find a home and furnish it.  We've sponsored many children and adults who need help paying dues. Random Acts of Kindness is a way of life for our club and I'm so proud of them and all they've done, these are but a few, as a member of our club you can opt to join or not, it's totally voluntary with no demands.  It is open to all ages and open to any suggestions!
