Celebrity Encounters: Chicago Comic Con 2010

Rubbing elbows with celebrities is one of the highlights of any convention experience. Chicago Comic Con was no exception. Having interviewed some of the guests before the event, gave me a good reason to introduce myself to them. I was actually more nervous than I expected to be. Everyone I met and spoke to were...

Run-in with a Decepticon on I-94

Run-in with a Decepticon on I-94
Last night, I believe I was driving alongside a Decepticon from the Transformers 3 movie. It was dark, but I distinctly saw the words “Safeguard” and Decepticon symbols. I’m a new fan to Transformers myself, so I’m not as well versed in all the back stories and names of the robots. So after some extensive... Read more »

Preparing for C2E2

I’m getting ready for the first big Chicago con of 2010! C2E2 starts Friday, and I’m giddy with excitement. My room, as always, is a mess with costumes, props and wigs.

C2E2 Celebrity Interview of My Dreams

Well, C2E2 is less than a week away, and I’m excited. Although I’ve been working in TV longer than I’ve been going to conventions, I’ve never attempted to get press access to any of these events until now. I guess it’s because I always use vacation time to go to cons, and no one wants... Read more »
