CURRENT ANIMORPHS BOOK
	Unfortunately there is no new book. But we should expect one really soon!! The
good news is that, the plot twist contest will continue. Speaking of the
contest, this week’s winner is: AX
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Here is his twist:
	The animorphs go down to the yeerk pool (which is underneath an oatmeal
factory) in a fly morph (again. Careful Jake!!!) They find out that the Yeerks
no longer need Kandrona rays but to “eat” a well balanced meal of oatmeal to
survive. They also swim around and live in oatmeal, so I guess they are called
Oatmeal Yeerk Poolsl!!!
	Funny and very creative AX!!!!!!! Don’t forget to send in your twisted plot.
!!!NEW NEWS!!!: You don’t have to do your twisted plot on The Underground. It
can be about and Animorph book!!
_______________________________
UP COMING ANIMIORPHS BOOKS!!!
	The Departure (? on the title) will be Cassie’s newest book involving a
butterfly morph and a Hork-Bajir who finds out all the Animorphs’ secrets. Also
Cassie may be leaving the team!!!!! Sounds very exciting, can’t wait to read
it!!!!
____________________________________
UPDATE ON THE ANIMORPHS TV SHOW!!
	A lot of die-hard Animorphs fans out there don’t have Nickelodeon and they are
scared that their local TV Company will not broadcast Animorphs in their
country. If any Canadians out there are reading this, you can e-mail YTV and
tell them to broadcast Animorphs!! Email them at webheads@ytv.ca
	Anyway, some good news released from the writer of the show, the show WILL NOT
be a cartoon!! It will be with real people (just like Home Improvement or the
X-Files is)!!
	That’s all the news on the show, more next week!!

ANIMORPHS FORUM!!
	A couple of people out there wrote to me!!! Thanks very much, here is what they
had to say:
It’s a really good newsletter. Will you have a new contest every week? PL
Dear PL, yes every week AW will have a new contest.
Hi,
Witch part of September will it (the Animorphs show) be in? Early, Middle or
late? From Richard
		Dear Richard, I don't exactly know which part of September. KA
said she will post all the information on her web site when she gets the
information!! When I get this info. too I will post it in the AW Newsletter!!!
But, if any of you out there know the answer to this question please inform me.

GOSSIP!!
Here is some gossip passed down from KAA herself (I’m getting this from a
magazine interview, and a couple of things I picked up from the net!!)
--KA  is thinking of making a 3 part Animorphs book (you know PART 1 and TO BE
CONTINUED. . . all that jazz)
--A new member to the Animorphs team will joinin that 3 part book!
--A female Andalite may appear in a book (Ax’s  girlfriend??)!
--KAA lives in an apartment in New York. To get her full address check out the
FAQ on the Animorphs web page!
--KA has two cats!!
--“To Michael” ever wonder who he is? Turns out he is KA’s husband!!
--KA’s son doesn’t like to read Animorphs much. He has only read a few of the
books!
--KA has made a huge mistake in Megamorphs#2!!
If you have any gossip you’d like to share, send it to me and I’ll be sure to
post it up (along with your name beside it!!)

CONTEST
Last week’s contest question was: IN 100 WORDS OR LESS : PRETEND YOU ARE A HIGH
RANKING VISSER. MAKE UP A PLAN THAT WILL WIN FOR SURE AND THE ANIMORPHS WILL NOT
BE ABLE TO DEFEAT.
I said I will choose the top best 3 so, here they are:
GET A NUCLEAR BOMB AND DROP IT ON THE ANDALITE PLANET.	  Jason (a.k.a. Daniel)
	Very creative Jason even though you are a man of very little words!!!
	KIDNAP THE ANIMORPHS TEAM IN MORPH FORM AND THROW ALL OF THEM IN THE YEERK
POOL.		pats
	Good idea pats!!!
	Since only two people entered the contest, here is something I made up on my
own:
	FIND THE TIME MATRIX AND GO BACK IN TIME TO DESTROY THE VERY FIRST ANDALITE OR
GO BACK TO THE AGE OF THE DINOS. GET A T-REX MORPH AND IN A BATTLE MORPH THE
T-REX AND SQUISH THE ANDALITE TEAM.				GJL
	There is something to show you that with a little imagination you can win and
get published in AW!!!!
This week’s contest is: WRITE A LIST OF 3 ANIMORPHS TITLES OF YOUR OWN AND WRITE
A ONE-SENTENCE SUMMARY OF THAT BOOK!!! I again will choose the best 3 and post
them!! Submit you contest entries to: doug_funnie@hotmail.com the only rule is
that it has to be from YOUR own imagination NOT from KA’s. The deadline is
Friday April 3rd 1998. So hurry!!!!
