She's really impressed with the fan support, as seen here:

and the many pockets of support threaded into individual show sites.

"I was in a strike meeting last week, when all these things were coming to the boil, and the level of Big Fan Love in that room would make trees grow and rocky soil fertile. We are enormously grateful, and were you here in my dining room right now (where my laptop is on the table) I would hug every one of you in an embarrassing display and then take you all out for margaritas.

Our dream is to have a short strike, but the only way to achieve that is to keep the heat on. Please don't stop. And I'd ask for something else: it's been pushed off the headlines by the announcement negotiations will start again, but United Hollywood has put up a pencil campaign page to make it easier for fans to send pencils to the CEOs of the conglomerates:

You can send pencils individually and the site provides the addresses, but the site above will send the pencils for you. It's a buck via PayPal.

One thing I love about her LJ story - she notes that the T-shirt has a similar logo to one used for X-Files. Love a woman who knows her fandoms.
