As we all pretty much know, October 24th will be Eliza Taylor’s 26th birthday! To celebrate, we fans are going to do something extra special for her, just to show how much we love and appreciate her. Here is what you can do to contribute:
∞ Send her a personal birthday wish and/or favorite photo of her or you can make fan art that is either hand drawn or digital. Mine will be included of course, but I am stepping aside and have your talent and love shine.
∞ I will Photoshop everyone’s pieces to make a unique birthday card. The final product will be posted on the site, uploaded in the gallery, Tweeted to Eliza, and posted on my Tumblr, as well as the Grounders Source Instagram. You can save the card too as we all worked our hearts off to make it!
∞ All photos and wishes must be emailed at grounderspodcast@gmail.com under the subject, Eliza’s Project no later than Friday, October 23rd. This is so I can make it and put it together that night and have it ready by Saturday.
∞ There is going to be a hashtag regarding this and it is #Elizasproject. I am trying to keep it as secretive as possible, so she can be surprised. Only use it if you have a question.
I believe that is it! I cannot wait to see everyone’s amazingness! Make sure that you watermark your artwork in the lower right hand corner, so there won’t be any theft. Trust me, long ago I had some valuable concert photos stolen from me because I didn’t put my name on them, so now I know how important it is to credit your work.
Again, thank you for all of your love, and fantastic help! ♥
For The 100 fans outside the US who didn’t get the privilege of seeing Alycia Debnam-Carey on Kimmel, and fans who want to relive her precious segment, I have uploaded her interview. Is she not one of the most adorable Aussies? Enjoy, and as a bonus, I have also added the video of Alycia meeting and greeting her fans outside the studio.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
You tweeted and ‘tumbled’ the top ten ‘saddest scenes’ of The 100, and here they are! Now, there are an unlimited heartbreaking pieces, and I wish I could list them all. But, here they are! They are in no particular order as fans can draw up their own emotions.
Just a quick update that I have uploaded several photos this week (never ending) in the gallery! I made the decision to add social media pictures to add for those who do not have access to them *ahem* my mother for example. 😛 I did ask if it was alright to use them, of course, and they allowed it with open arms. Any promotion and support is beyond appreciative! Here are the updates thus far:
As for me adding the ‘Fan Frenzy’ section of the site, this is totally up to the fans. Fans can contribute their fan encounters, photos, artwork, articles, or fictions in the forum. Photos will be automatically added to the gallery. All they have to do is drop me an email, and I will place it on the site, with credits.
I have been crazy busy with work this week and been staying up to early morning hours completely the daily updates. I know that I keep promising you all The 100 Top 10 post, the activity that we all done last weekend on Twitter, and that will be next! I want to mould it into a ‘GIF Image’ post to make it truly stand out.
Next week, I have some relief, so I will be doing the site more. Until my next journey…(tomorrow).

It is with a half-deflated heart that our beloved and most inspiring unity project, The 100 Charity Project has come to an end. The Project may have had a short, few month lifespan; however that alone made a huge difference positively. We all came together, cast, crew, fans, and anyone who would heard it from our circle to help make our world a better place. Through our participation, donations, and commitment, love and compassion, all of you (yeah, you!) had made somebody’s life more meaningful. I do not have enough words to even begin to describe the wonderment and thorough kindness of The 100 cast and especially, Miss Layne Morgan, for starting the cause. Thousands of items and dollars have been donated to causes so that people and wildlife can have a sunny tomorrow. Donations made by You and I. I personally have never seen such a cast who is willing to come together with their fans to help sculpt the world. It is mostly unheard of, but in this case, we could not have done it without them, nor could they have done it without us. It is truly remarkable, and truth be told, I have discovered a few positive things about myself. I have learned that my life can make an impact, and to share my own story with the world of having a disability. Despite all the harassment, the cold teasing, (lousy narrow-minded kids) the multiple and multiple surgeries, and the pain, I pulled through it. It was beyond difficult, but I done it. It still leaves a sting, but that is all behind me. I didn’t hold grudges, didn’t harm anyone back (believe me, some stuff that was said deserved a good jaw snap), or hate them. I did forgive them, and now I can only hope that they turned their life around. That is enough now about me, as this is starting to get a wee bit emotional.
It is essentially important that we continue our good deeds, to strive for a better future. Whether it is volunteering at the local food drive, donating blood to save three lives, helping the special needs, or even sharing a kind word when someone is having a rough time, it can make a big change. I hope that The 100 and its incredible charity impacted your life in a positive light. We may not see each other face-to-face, but we are all in this together, as an Unity. We are there for one another. A diverse group of human beings, from all walks of life, different sections of the earth, religion, languages, race, you name it worked and inspired together. That unique group of people is needed in order to survive. Without our support and love, who else will the world turn to?
I hope the Charity will continue under a different name, because I got a feeling it is some legal issue that got involved. I am not going to get in to that though, as I do not want to start anything or get in trouble. The world needs more people like Layne, the cast, and us in it, because we can show them that ‘life should be more than just surviving.’
With that, I am going to wind this post to an open/close, meaning that there is always that hope that someone new will come across, and make their own world a bit brighter. They will find out that people can really open their hearts and uplift, and hopefully, they will follow suit.
Now, I will leave you for now with a special phrase: I will always be in. The question is, will you be? ?
