Survivor Haven
June 2001

Welcome to the June 2001 issue of Survivor Haven. We have some new authors at the Haven this month as well as several contributors we have featured before. To all of these, we wish to say thank you!

Last month saw the beginning of our Fighting Back page as well as a our Book reviews. This month we have grown again by adding additional self-defense pages, as well as three new rooms to the art gallery. While you may say Hello World! beware as you step through certain doors though, for Here There Be Dragonsand Love.
