Note from Becky:

This site will be archived in the coming days and will no longer be updated (except for the Luminous fanlisting). You will still be able to find everything that is currently on this site by going to geniefrancis.net.

GenieFrancis.com will have a whole new look and will be run by my friend Jen, who has been running the @GenieFans twitter and helping me keep this site up-to-date for a while now. The new site is still under construction, so be patient as it comes together and GenieFrancis.com continues to be a place for Genie fans :)

Hard to believe it's been 15 years (!) since I created A Place For Genie Francis Fans on geocities.com. Thank you to everyone who has sent me something for this site -- there wouldn't be half the stuff on here if it weren't for y'all. There are too many names to list, but if you're ever looking at pictures or articles or quotes, there will often be a 'Thanks to _________!' nearby to give credit to those who helped make this a pretty cool site.

To all the Laura fans, Tyger fans, Brett fans, Diana fans, Ceara fans, Genevieve fans, and the 'I'll-watch-Genie-in-anything' fans (::high-five::), it's been fun! See you at the new site! And don't forget to watch GH for Laura's return this Friday, October 2nd!
