Robservations Now Available on CD!
« on: August 07, 2003, 10:15:34 AM »
The CD of Robservations is, at long last, complete!

After years of synopsizing my favorite show, I proudly present Robservations on CD for those interested in purchasing it.

All 1,245 episodes are included, along with my commentary, musings, asides, jokes and inside information. Sometimes what I have to say is definitely irreverent, but always with respect, because DARK SHADOWS has  meant a great deal to me for nearly 40 years and this is a labor of love which actually began in 1967, when I started writing much shorter synopses for my own enjoyment.

It's in text format and should work on any CD-rom.

The CD's cost will be $20.00, postpaid. If you prefer to purchase Robservations from me at the fest, I will be selling them there, but if you're not going to the fest or prefer to have it sooner, please contact me at:

ROBINV@OPTONLINE.NET

I hope you will enjoy this collection as much as I've enjoyed putting it together!

Love, Robin

Hi Robin,

I've been meaning to respond to this on the SciFi Board.  Maybe I'll post this there, too.  And, since it wasn't here yet, I was thinking of mentioning it for you!

As tempting as it sounds, I don't think I really need to have it, so I'll pass it up, but it's wonderful that you have it ready and I hope you do well with selling it.

I remember times when you cut back on your DS writing in order to write things you could get paid for.  With all of the time and effort you've put into all things DS, it would be wonderful if you finally get something for it!!!  :)

LOTS OF LUCK!

Hello??? You could write when you were 2 or 3???

It's in text format and should work on any CD-rom.

(um...hate to sound dumb...but are you speaking or is it written?)

Patti, I'm flattered.  I was born in December, 1953 (turning the big five-0 this year!), so I was 12 when DS premiered and 13 when Barnabas appeared on the show.  He jump-started my adolescence, I guess you could say, because that tortured vamp just got me sooooo horny!

I would have loved to have read Robservations, but this is in text format.  As much as I would have enjoyed reading them to you all, I'd undoubtedly have lost my voice forever after 1245 eps!  Then again, I can list a whole bunch of folks who would probably be thrilled if that happened.

Thanks for your good wishes, Josette!

Love, Robin

Hi Robin,

I'm very new to this board and this is my first posted message here.  I wanted to tell everyone that I have Robin's CD and it's a treasure!  It's full of wonder information about every episode, it's all Robin's own creation and I can tell she put her heart into it.  Thanks a million for making it available to me and others.

~Jackie~  :D
