Encounters: A Phone Call I Won't Soon Forget

A Phone Call I Won't Soon Forget

By Andrea
Hello everyone!!!
I just had to share this great news!
This afternoon I recieved a phone call from Jeanine Jackson (JJ & Richard's Mom) She called me to tell me some great news! I am the winner of a tie that Richard Lee Jackson wore in the movie "True Rights" It will also be autographed by Richard himself. (Note: This contest was through their Official Fan Club. If you would like to join their Official Fan Club please visit their website for more information ~ CLICK HERE) I was very surprised to hear the news from Jeanine herself.
She was really sweet on the phone. I took the opportunity to tell her that she has two lovely sons. She of course graciously said thank-you. I also took the opportunity to tell her about Jackson Lane. She had then told me that she thought my name was familiar. At that point she continued to tell me how great the website is and how much they appreciate all the work that has gone into the site. I continued to tell her how much we enjoy working on the website.Also theChristmas Wish Book that we had put together for them, was also mentioned, and she said it was a very sweet and wonderful thing to do. At this point I thought our conversation was coming to a close, so I of course told her to say Hi to Richard and Jonathan for me. Why not the opportunity was there.
It was at that time that she asked me if I could hold for a second. Of course I had all the time to wait - lol. About a minute later she came back on the phone to tell me that Richard wants to talk to me. At this point I couldn't believe my ears. Richard Lee Jackson was going to talk to ME! "Hello Andrea..." Richard said. I was grinning from ear to ear I think. Richard has a very sweet voice and lovely voice on the phone. We had a really wonderful conversation. Of course deep down inside my heart was racing like a million miles an hour. Everything was just happening so quickly.
During our conversation I asked Richard if there is anything new, and he told me that Jonathan and him are working on some new material. I quickly asked if they were writting more scripts, or writting more songs. He said they are working on some more scripts right now. He also told me that they are they are working on new music too *YEH*
He then mentioned about the Christmas Wish Book, and had thanked us for putting it together. "It really touched our hearts.." is what he said. Of course I was really happy they enjoyed the book and the website. I actually took the opportunity to tell Richard that we get so many wonderful emails from so many fans, some thinking we are actually YOU. He had a chuckle at that. I also continued to tell him how Karen & I communicate. Having never met Karen, we both communicate online, doing the updates for Jackson Lane. Richard really thought that was neat. I told him I've made a best friend in creating this site. And that I did !!

Our conversation ended quickly, and I told him that it was really nice to talk to you, take care and I had to tell him to say Hi to Jonathan for me *hehe* He said he will certainly do that. *sigh*

I'd like to take this time to thank Jeanine for giving me the chance to chat with Richard. You really did make my day a brighter one and also something I soon won't forget!
