Some of us on Soapcity who are unhappy with the way things are going wanted to get a new campaign under way to let TPTB and magazines know what we think of the latest Shimi and Mimi developments.
So here's the deal. We are asking you faithful fans to bombard the attached form letter expressing how we feel to TPTB and magazines through both regular mail and e-mail--especially during the next week. Even if it doesn't change the outcome, TPTB need to know that not everyone is waiting for a Shelle reunion with bated breath.
Here is the letter:
Please feel free to make changes or corrections and then sign your name and voila, you are done.
I will repost the addresses and e-mails in the next post.
Thank you.
Hopefully if nothing else we can get another mention in SOD.
Also a reminder. Please vote in the SOD hot or not poll. We all know it's easily spammed, but it's worth a shot.

Here is the letter:
I am a big fan of Days of Our Lives but most of all I am a big fan of the wonderful pairing of Shawn Brady and Mimi Lockhart (affectionately known as Shimi). I know of many other fans who have enjoyed the development of the Shawn and Mimi relationship from close friendship to newfound love over the course of the past six months. The way they were written earlier this fall and winter: they undeniably brought out the absolute best in each other. Through their relationship, they also grew stronger as individuals. Shawn matured and learned how to be strong, both on his own and with Mimi. Mimi vowed to get over her past mistakes and worked hard to overcome her insecurities by believing in herself and in Shawn.
However, now I am becoming very disheartened. This once promising and refreshing relationship, based on honesty and friendship, seems to be heading in the wrong direction with the latest developments of Mimi keeping the issue of Claire’s paternity a secret and Shawn being constantly drawn back to his past with Belle.
It is out of character for the Mimi Lockhart we have seen grow as a honest caring young woman over the past several months to keep this life altering secret. The real Mimi Lockhart would tell her fiancée the truth and remain secure in the knowledge that Shawn can both be a husband to her and a hands on father to Claire. The real Shawn Brady would leave his past in the past and focus on the future ahead with his new love.
As even Soap Opera Digest noted, Shawn and Mimi have the potential to be the future of Days. They are a potential super couple in the making, but only if you give them the chance. I beg you not to let Mimi’s lie and Shawn’s past doom this young relationship before it even has a chance to get off the ground.
Please give us our Shimi future! Thank you.
