Favorite character: Willie Loomis, of course
This character's turning point: Willie-me-lad had a number of turning points in his life. And they were HUGE turning points, too. Coming to Collinwood for one, opening Barn's coffin, standing up for Maggie (on more than one occasion), and getting sent to Windcliffe. His character changes so visably after each major event, it's a wonder someone else can't put two and two together and figure out what's going on. Of course, Julia does.....
This character's most interesting relationship: Willie tends to interact with all the other characters in an interesting way, mostly because I think when he's in their line of sight, he irritates them - and I think he irritates them because he represents someone they cannot understand. How could a man like Willie Loomis end up working for that "nice" Barnabas Collins? How come he's so different? What did Barnabas do to him? Willie's mere presence in the room raises questions that no one is willing to answer, let alone examine. He makes them uncomfortable with themselves.
Comments: I love your site. I think the background is very evocative of the Old House and I love the script style that you use for the fonts in the headings. You've got some good alignment here, as well. I think you need MORE pictures of our beloved boy, tho!!!!! [Good answers! But I'm surprised you didn't say that Willie's most interesting realtionship was with Barnabas. Actually, what you said is an accurate assessment of the situation and sums it up quite nicely. IMO. Thanks, too, for the comments on the site. They're all works-in-progress.—M]

Other fandoms: Clifford The Big Red Dog-he's a big red dog!
Favorite character: Carl Collins-because he's a good joker
This character's turning point: Willie is so funny ever since I first
saw him.
This character's most interesting relationship: All the characters
that John Karlen has played he's so sweet.
Comments: Hey Willie, what's up baby? Tori here how are you in Collinsport?
wish I was with you but you'll allways be in my dreams. I write stories about
Willie anytime I get ideas in my head so far I written a story called Willie's
Summertime it's about Willie going to California visiting his friend Portense
Read it's a great story. [That sounds interesting—Willie
in California. Hope he had some fun for a change! —M]

Favorite character: Angelique, I want her powers but I'd use them more
wisely!
This character's turning point: in 1897, she mellowed a bit & therefore
stopped screwing herself over!
This character's most interesting relationship: Barnabas---I think
the answer as to why they have an interesting relationship is obvious!
Comments: your website is very impressive. I'm DELIGHTED to see your
guestbook reopened. Your technical know how in putting this site together
might just inspire me to dump my primitive web TV system & take a computer
class! Love, Adam, hopefully a new friend.............. [Thanks

Favorite character: Thenardier
This character's turning point: Sure. The night that he was searching
the sewers for gold and money after the rush of the barricades. It lead to
his "richne$$."
This character's most interesting relationship: I'm not sure what you
mean here - Same production or different? I'll do the same. I'd have to say
that Javert, believe it or not, has a lot in common with M. Thenardier. They
both have aspirations throughout the hardships of the revolution
Comments: I loooove your Javert site! It's neat to find that someone
has an interest in the characters in Les Miz. I will be performing in my school's
production of Les Miz on March 20-22, 2002. I will no-doubt be playing M.
Thenardier, but my second choice is Inspector Javert. In fact, the Denver
Post will be doing a month-by-month story of our production. Perhaps I will
start a page for Thenardier... Thanks for shareing this site with me. I really
enjoyed it. "I have overheard their plan. There will be no attack tonight.
They intend to starve us out before they start a proper fight. Concentrate
their force, hit us from the right." "Valjean, at last, we see eachother plain.
"Miseour le Mayor" you wear a different chain." "This I swear to you, I'll
be there." [How exciting for you to be in a production
of Les Miz! That's a dream of mine, or a fantasy at any rate. I figure
I could play any of the characters since I learned all the lyrics! Best of
luck and thanks for signing!—M]

Favorite character: Frollo
This character's turning point: There are so many! I'd have to say
when he first sees La Esmeralda dancing in the square with Djali and feels
lust for the first time.
This character's most interesting relationship: Quasimodo. Frollo has
an excellent servant in him, not unlike a hunter has in their dog. Quasimodo
takes so much abuse from him, especially after saving Esmeralda, and doesn't
say a word (yeah, i know he's quiet, but still).
Comments: Love your pages, especially the one on Les Miserables! You
mentioned that you haven't yet watched the Disney version of the Hunchback
of Notre Dame. You're missing out. If you watch it for no other reason but
for the artwork, you will not be disappointed. There are a lot of contradictions
from the novel, but the story is still touching (The pillory is in the square,
Quasimodo is not deaf, Esmeralda is Demi Moore etc...). [Thank
you! I've been considering seeing it since I have nephews who might enjoy
it. We'll see.... I just tend to be a bit of a purist, is all. : ) —M]

Comments: I need some help!!! I'm looking for a film, a comedy about
a hunchback who goes to university! I've looked all ove and can't find any
info on it (probably because I can't remember the title). I'm sure it's called
'Hunchback on Campus' or something similar. The character's (hunchback)name
in the flick is Mr Luga Luga Luga Luga Luga. It must be donkeys years old
now, but I gotta get a copy!!! Can anyone help? Please e-mail me if possible,
thanks. srjt_99@yahoo.com [Wish I could help you with

were such a cute couple. She really loved the beast!

Other fandoms: Star Trek and Star Trek Next Gen.
Favorite character: Mr. Spock and Commander Data
This character's turning point: With Spock, the one significant thing
that sticks out the most is when he was sprayed with spores on a planet with
these big flowers, and he fell in love with a woman there and was happy and
smiled. Even though it didn't last, I liked what he said, "All I know is that
for once in my life, I was happy." In STNG, I felt that Data had a significant
turning point when he was captured by a collector or rare things and people.
When Data refused to cooperate with the man who had kidnapped him, because
he felt he was not a thing, but a sentient being with the right to liberty.
And though it was against his principles, as it were, he would have killed
the man to prevent him from doing the same thing to others down the line.
But he didn't have to kill him, and was reunited with the crew of the Enterprise
where he was treated with dignity and respect.
This character's most interesting relationship: I liked the tension
between Nurse Christine and Mr. Spock. She obviously adored him, though he
was incapable of returning the affection. And as for Commander Data...I liked
the relationship he had with the "daughter" that he made, although sadly,
he had to dismantle her.
Comments: Hi Mary! : ) I returned to the site to finish reading your
Willie stories, and found a whole new set of goodies to delve into!! I'm very
pleased to find this again. Been a long time. This is the first section I've

Other fandoms:
Favorite character: javert
This character's turning point: when valjean releases him instead of
killing him when he has the chance. Everything he believes to be right falls
apart.
This character's most interesting relationship: relationship with valjean
who he pursues for years. finally he is in valjeans debt. He cannot handle
the change of circumstance and so kills himself.
Comments: I love javert because he is so tragic and tortured. He represents
the law,rules and authority. He cannot empathise with the poor and has a extremely
rigid view of right and wrong. In the end when he realises things aren't always
so straghtforward, his world crumbles and he can't live with the knowledge.
I feel so sad for Javert as i feel he is essentially a good man but has a
lack of understanding of the plight of the poor. [You
really hit the nail on the head with your summation of Javert's character.
That is how I see him, as well, and that's what drew me to him. He's so tragic,
really. Thank you for sharing!—M

This character's turning point: I think after he was bitten by Barnabus
he had a complete change. Also when John Karlen started to play him and not
James Hall.
This character's most interesting relationship: Maggie and Willie have
a different relationship. Willie would do a lot to protect her. I had always
hoped they would put them together.
Comments: [Thanks for signing. And though I do
not share that wish, there are quite a few people who would like to see Willie
and Maggie end up together! I'd rather see him with his fiancé Roxanne.

Favorite character: Inspector Javert
This character's turning point:
This character's most interesting relationship:
Comments: Great website - there really is a site for everything! Totally
share your passion for Inspector Javert - ever since I first saw Les Mis 10
years ago, I have been drawn time after time to this fascinating figure. Your
previous writer got it right in saying Javert's motives come from an honourable
place - he only wants to do what he feels is correct and godly - and his suicide
is therefore truly tragic. As far as I'm concerned, his suicide and "Stars"
are two of the biggest highlights in modern theatre. I'm an actor in Bath,
England, and our theatre company are due to stage the dramatic version of
Les Mis ( musical version rights are still unavailable ). I've been lucky
enough to be cast as Javert himself! This will be a dream for me to play this
role, and I can't wait to portray this fascinating, tormented character at
last. Good luck with the website! :o) [Wow, Steve! Congratulations
on getting to play Javert. If I was a guy, that would certainly be a dream
come true for me, too. Wish I could hop a plane to England to watch. (I went
to Bath once and thought it was a beautiful city.) And to get to watch someone
who understands and appreciates Javert would be the best. Best of luck! Break
a leg, as they say! And thanks for your comments–I totally agree!—M]

Other fandoms: I'm deeply buried into gothic Dark Shadows! :)
Favorite character: My favorite character would be(male) Willie Loomis
This character's turning point: (Willie) He had a tremendous turning
point when he realized that jewels were NOT exactly worth working for Barnabas
Collins. No vampire is worth wasting time over. I just wish he could have
left town, or fully destroyed him.
This character's most interesting relationship: I would have to say
Barnabas Collins because he has such a strong hold over Willie and could get
him to do whatever was needed to do.
Comments: I love your Willie Loomis page! It really ROCKS! I have never
seen such a page like it, especially since sveryone else has different characters
that they rather like. [Thanks! I figured there are enough
pages about DS in general out there and other characters–that territory
has been well covered. Willie deserves his own page, and, as you can see,
there's a lot to him!—M]

How you found my page: Word of mouth (other than mine)
Other fandoms: My one true Love in fandoms is Dark Shadows. I'm really
not involved in any others, and really only have interest in that which pertains
to Willie Loomis. :)
Favorite character: Willie Loomis....both pre/post Wyndecliffe.
This character's turning point: I think there were several in Willie's
life, but the one that struck me as the most critical point was when he was
in the garden at Collinwood going through such turmoil knowing that Barnabas
was going to kill Maggie Evans and he just could no longer stand by and watch
all the people around him die. What a heroic thing he did in trying to warn
Magge!!! I don't think many people realize just what a sacrifice he was making
for her. Not only did he perform this attempt at great risk to himself from
Barnabas...he finally stood up to the point of death....and that was quite
a feat for someone in the power of a vampire's grip. He didn't let it stop
him. His love for Maggie and his respect for life--newly acquired since Barnabas
bit him compelled him to try against the odds to save her life. I'm sure that
he didn't want to go through the shame and the agony of standing by while
Barnabas killed her. Wow....how can anyone not love him for that? That, in
my opinion was the most powerful and poignant turning point for Willie.
This character's most interesting relationship: I think it is Barnabas,
simply because the relationship is fraught with conflict, of desire, fear,
cruelty, control and the unnerving edge of what further atrocities he can
get away with and how Willie deals with all these facets of the relationship.
Comments: Mary, This is a lovely website with lots of delicious Willie
to sink your teeth into...pun intended, of course... I'm still exploring it,
but I did want to check in with your guest list. I'm looking forward to seeing
more. Good job. : ) [Thanks, Cherie! I agree with your
take on Willie's turning point. Probably the most signifcant was getting bitten,
but the most poignant was that night in the garden. What it cost him! Yikes!
Anyway, thank you for signing!—M]

Other fandoms: Dark Shadows is my favorite show, I also love All in

Favorite character: Used to be Qeuntin, now it is Willie
This character's turning point: Definitely when Willie opened Barnabas'
coffin his whole life changed. His character was completely transformed.
This character's most interesting relationship: Probably Barnabas who
was Willie's slave master and abuser. Eventually Barnabas did some changing
of his own and even developed a sort of friendship with Willie, though it
was never as equals, at least not in Barnabas' mind.
Comments: As most people know, I was really heavily into Quentin, but
in the past few days have done a complete turnaround and fallen hard for Willie.
I look forward to learning more about him and his character and plan to read
your stories and others about him as I can. I am also writing my own fanfic
called "Seaview" which is the story of Vicki and the dream house she was never
able to have. Willie figures very prominently in this story as he is in love
with her.

This character's most interesting relationship:
Comments: I would just like to say that if anyone wants a good read
about Willie? You've come to the woman that can give it!! I have read both
novels that Mary's written..hi Mary!...and the two most powerful ones I have
read this year have been "What If...the Night Never Ended..." and I just finished
the sequel to that book "If Tomorrow Never Comes". Let me say that I have
never been so thoroughly run the gambit of emotions as I did with that one!
My hats off to you, Mary, for a masterpiece. Thank you, on behalf of Willie,
and for those of us who love his character. I have also just finished with
"Summer's Son" a prequel you've written, and I will email you more on that
one. But I want to say that I enjoyed the book, and now understand a little
better his relationship with Roxanne and how that must have been for her knowing
Willie. And for anyone interested in THE best collection of Willie fan fiction
stories and some interesting, unique new art...well you can find it for sure
in the upcoming Karlenzine IV. I can tell you from personal experience that
it will be worth the wait!! Keep up the good work, Mary! We are waiting with
bated breath! Bring it on. :) Thanks! Yours in Willie, Cherie Groves [Thanks

Favorite character: Dr. Julia Hoffman
This character's turning point: Yes, when she saves Barnabas in the
"1970-PT" segment and then has to resume her own counterpart's role as a servant
to Angelique, undercover if you like, just in order to survive.
This character's most interesting relationship: Barnabas Collins, who,
by virtue of his curse, is forever altered in terms of his perspectives on
humanity -- especially when one considers the elite of the 18th Century!
Comments: The article which divulged speculations by Lead Writer Sam
Hall, in the wake of Dark Shadows disappearance from the air in 1971, dangled
the possibility that Barnabas and Julia would finally become true companions
and marry. In the final year of the series, as we've been recently reminded
by the current (and now ending, sadly) run of Dark Shadows, when Julia has
newly reached 1840 and Barnabas tries to reach her via the I-Ching, a vision
is seen of a tombstone marked: "Julia Hoffman Collins (d.1840)". The use of
both family names was clearly a hint by the scriptwriters. A few episodes
later, the reunion between Julia and Barnabas in the foyer of Collinwood is
also more than just a bit telling, as are many moments during the 1840 segment.
I was only 10 years old when Julia and Barnabas made their debuts on Dark
Shadows, but I was impressed by them from the moments they arrived; they were
the missing links for a Theatre Piece, in the form of Daytime Drama, which
needed only these last crucial elements (personae) in order to reach the archetypal
in all of us... that is why (in my opinion) Dark Shadows is timeless, priceless,
and can never be replaced. I can only hope that the original series will resurface
again somewhere, so that I may always get to see them. Cheers! [You're
the first person I've seen give decent evidence to suggest Julia and Barnabas
might someday get married. Nice work! And I agree that the show is timeless.
It has a character unlike anything else out there, which is why it's still
so popular, I'm sure. : ) —M]

Favorite character: Dr. Julia Hoffman
This character's turning point: Yes, when she crossed over into Parallel
Time ("1970-PT"), saved Barnabas, killed her own counterpart in doing so,
and then had to assume the latter's role as a servant to Angelique, wife of
Quentin Collins in Parallel Time, doing so undercover if you like, if for
no other reason than to survive.
This character's most interesting relationship: Barnabas Collins, no
question, whom she saves or protects more than once, and with whom she argues
and fights more than once over the years, initially receiving a lot of abuse
and often not the proper appreciation for her efforts until finally, in the
last year, their friendship really starts to blossom.
Comments: The lead scriptwriter Sam Hall let it slip in 1971, following
the end of the series, that plans had existed so that Barnabas and Julia would
finally solidify their friendship into marriage; to wit, that they would finally
become for each other what each needed to be: husband and wife. We are given
some glimpses of this in the final year of the series, one quite noteworthy
in the early days of the 1840 segment with Julia newly arrived and Barnabas
attempting the I-Ching as a means to reach her; on the first attempt he instead
sees a vision of her tombstone, marked: "Julia Hoffman Collins (d.1840)"--a
very telling clue by the scriptwriters. Days later when the two are reunited
in the foyer of Collinwood, 1840, the warmth of the reunion is also telling,
as are various moments throughout that particular segment. These two characters
were the missing links to an already set Theatre (in the form of Daytime Drama)
which, with their arrival in 1967 reached the archetypal level that has attracted
all of us. The show became both timeless and priceless and, despite an admirable
effort 20 years later, could not be replaced. The original series never will
be replaced, and I can only hope that it continues running in one form or
another so that I may see it all again. (Willie is also a likeable character
in my opinion, who I appreciated even more so as Desmond Collins, 1840.) Finally,
the costumes, decorations, set designs, and especially the music of Robert
Cobert shall never be forgotten. Cheers! [Desmond and
Willie were so completely different, it's odd to think the same man portrayed
them both. Both Willie and Will were full of tension all the time, but Desmond
was so laid back (except during the really bad times). But Willie will always
be my favorite!—M]

This character's turning point: Yes. Javert is very cool. I love him.
You should go and read my story, so go to www.matmice.com/home/inspectorjavert

other lesser mortals. Please, it is a good story, even if it IS just the very
beginning.
This character's most interesting relationship: Javert actually has
a long lost son. His name is Wraith, and his mum is a prossie. He is in the
story too. And also my little brother has a funny game, it is called soul
calibur 2, and there is a coolies woman on there called ivy, and she is also
in the story. Javert married Ivy at the end and they have a kid, but Javert
doesn't like the kid, so they try to sell it on ebay.

Favorite character: WILLIE LOOMIS IS THE GREATEST... "y..y..you're
not supposed to be here, Mr. Collins will catch you!" :p
This character's turning point: When Barnabas killed Jason. I believe
this was the point where it was made clear to Willie that the past has been
destroyed by his master, and there was absolutely no one to help Willie out
since Jason was the only one who felt for him.
This character's most interesting relationship: hmm... You know.. John
Karlen was an interesting character. He acted hardcore on the outside as Willie
going up against Burke, but was so sweet when playing the character of Kendrick.
I say that Willie had the most interesting relationship with Barnabas BUT
ONLY BECAUSE of their similarities in characters. When Willie would look at
Barnabas, it would be as though he would see himself, which made him so afraid.
Once enslaved by Barnabas, the inner part of Willie was revealed as he called
Victoria Winters on the phone on that dreadful night to tell her where to
find Maggie. Barnabas also had a soft side that was later revealed when his
sister came up into topic. How interesting it is to actually see the study
of characters here, not only in the show, but also in real life. Even when
a man says that he hates one of his brothers, he is fooled by his emotions
as he really hates himself but loves his brother.
Comments: [Thanks for sharing your views! I don't
think the most interesting relationship was between Barnabas and Willie ONLY
because of the character's similarites, but to each his/her own! I think those
similarities dried right up after Barn bit Willie. Willie couldn't afford
to be selfish any more.—M]

This character's turning point: What character? Javert is the best.
I have decided his name is Toulouse Javert. Ha ha he rules. He has a son by
a repulsive prossie, his name is Wraith. He is a street urchin. Toulouse Javert
(TJ) hates him but the prossie unloads Wraith, who is 16, onto him. TJ has
a dudey pad. He has two rooms for food.
This character's most interesting relationship: ...He never had a long-term
relationship before, he found it hard to find a girl who could, uh, meet his
demands. But then he met Sado-masochistic hell bitch Ivy and they got on great.
They have a daughter who TJ at first tries to sell on ebay, but when she laughes
at poor people on the street he warms to the little kid.

This character's turning point: When Javert was going crazy and couldn't

ended up throwing himself into a river! waah! He went in-seine... get it?

free even though he knows that it will come back to haunt him in future.

Willie perfectly, and I hope you intend to put up more...as I keep re-reading

today that I was not getting notice of postings to my guestbook. So after
pulling off the crap (drug ads mostly), I think it's better. I do need to

I've been writing goes into the zines. (I'm from the old school of hardcopy
publishing. The only reason those stories are up is they were published a
long time ago, and at the time I put them on my site, none of them were really
in print. I'm sure glad you've enjoyed them, but I gotta say, there's so much
more, and better work, in the KarlenZines.) Thanks so much for sharing your
