Erika Slezak posted a message for her fans last month
There have been no updates regarding Erika Slezak's next project. However, she shared a message through her official website last month, saying that she had to stay home because of the SAG-AFTRA strike. She added:
"There are so many things that I want to do, and then there are so many things that haven't been done. But I guess that's the story of everyone's life."
Erika thanked her fan club president, Walter Miller, alongside her fans in the letter. She said she plans to go on a vacation, and her dog Davy has kept her busy. She continued:
"He has little interest in eating… so if anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate them. I have tried every kind of food including the 'human grade' food, but he doesn't really care. It is very strange to have a dog that doesn't want to eat."
