Back Online

We are up and running again, thanks for your patience. It was a server move, due to some previous hosting issues, and hopefully everything is working as it should. If there are any problems, you can let us know at by contacting us here.


Missing Pieces should be fully intact, but the rest of the site is still under construction and will be returning in bits and pieces as the work gets finished.


Enjoy!

Missing Pieces, and the rest of the pretendercentre will be offline for a few days, commencing on the 24th September.

Xmas Fanfics

It wasn't easy and the competition was tough but there was one fan fiction that captured our hearts and is sure to capture Mr Cox's as well. 


And that piece was "A  Thousand Wonders" by Airsay.  You can read the story here: "A Thousand Wonders"But there's one more surprise.   As a small thank you and in lieu of the stuffed Aardvark Trophy Mr. Cox was pushing for, Airsay will receive a personalized autographed copy of Rebirth as a prize – we apologize for this last minute switch.   


Thank you to all who submitted their Christmas stories.

Christmas Fanfic Challenge

FROM: MISS EMILY,
ASSISTANT CENTRE MORALE OFFICER


TO: ALL EMPLOYEES (PAST AND PRESENT)


RE: IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN!


 


Calling all Grinches, Santas, and Tiny Tims! The Centre is launching an initiative to introduce the trappings of the holiday season to our latest group of telekinetic twins. We all remember happened last year when they got ‘irritated’ – so to avoid that ash filled fate, we are asking every one of you crazy elves to all join together to make the double dozen feel right at home this holiday season. What cools their jets the most (and we do mean jets) are the tales they are read by Mr. Cox at story time.


But we need more! So get those creative juices flowing and submit an original holiday-themed fan fiction to Missing Pieces. I’ve arranged for the PTB's to evaluate, debate, and disseminate the winning submission(s) on www.thepretenderlives.com. Mr. Cox has his hands full with the taxidermy needs associated with last year's subjects, so entries are limited to 1000 words, due on December 15 before the annual holiday gathering at the Centre South Tower Executive Club. Best of luck to you all… and to all a good night.


Miss E

A Thank You to SLM & CVS

 I am very pleased to have received this request on Facebook, and am posting it here too for those who don't social network, and would like to be involved.


Here are the details: It has been really great getting to interact with everyone on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. within the Pretender “FANmily.” I think we all know that we’re so lucky to have such awesome creators/writers/producers in Steven Long Mitchell and Craig Van Sickle… I don’t know of any other production with a team that answers our questions, tweets us fun quotes (the Mr. Wiggles leopard print underwear thread, anyone??), and sends us hints and teasers for the upcoming Pretender reboot.

There is a 'sub level' project going on...


 



For information:

Email: missmallory.johnson@gmail.com

Twitter DM: @VirginiaBelle10


Please pass this along to the other Pretender fans and send your submission…the more we have, the better it will be! Thanks so much!! And bee shhh... keep it in the sublevels.
