First off, let me say how grateful I am to the hundreds of Tower Prep fans who have contacted me in the year since the series finished its original run on Cartoon Network. I'm thrilled that the show was enjoyed by so many and I also am sorry that Cartoon Network has chosen not to renew it. Many people have asked me about petitions, e-mail campaigns and the like to keep the show going. I'm not sure what attention they would be paid at this point, though of all of the options, an e-mail campaign would have the least effect. Actual posted (stamped and mailed)letters are what most networks respond to. I once heard Seth McFarlane say that after Family Guy was cancelled the first time, Fox was ready to reconsider after they received something like only 200 letters. I'm not saying the same thing could happen with Cartoon Network, but a show of letters from kid viewers, and, just as important, parents who have watched and enjoyed the show with their kids, might show the Network that the series is missed. This is especially important now that Tower Prep has started showing around the world and is making fans in Australia, Africa and South America, among other countries.
Anyway, lots of people have asked where they can send their letters, so I have included the address below. As always, the letters should be polite and never hurtful. After all, these are the nice folks who took a chance on producing the show in the first place. Let 'em know you like it, you miss it, and who knows? Let's see what happens.

I want to say thank you so much for the enjoyment that your imagination and writing has given me.
I got into Batman through the animated series when I was about seven and absolutely loved it. Harley was always my favourite; I loved that she was so fun and goofy, more bubbly than sultry.
:)
When I discovered that you have a livejournal I just had to get in touch to let you know what an amazing impact you and your work has had on my life; Harley reflects a lot of my best and worst qualities, and being able to look at her and the joker and realise that what they have isn't healthy gave me the strenth to walk away from some very bad, codependant relationships, and find someone who appreciates and supports and cares for me.
I marry my very own partner in crime in a Harley and Ivy themed wedding in June this year and I wanted to thank you. There are so few role models for queer girls, particularly if they don't fit into the spikey hair and plaid shirt stereotype, so having something which me and my lady could relate to so well has meant such a lot to us that we couldn't think of anything more appropriate.
It wouldn't be possible without you! :D
