A Long Time Ago… 35 Years, To Be Precise
Has it really been 35 years since A New Hope… er, I mean Star Wars, hit theaters?
Every time I watch Episode IV, I remember being a kid. Let’s celebrate with a trip down memory lane.
Tricia Barr took her understanding of brand management and marketing, mixed it with a love of genre storytelling, and added a dash of social media flare to create FANgirl Blog, where she discusses Star Wars, fandom, and the intersection of women within Star Wars fandom. She is co-author of Ultimate Star Wars and Star Wars Visual Encyclopedia from DK Publishing, a featured writer for Star Wars Insider magazine with numerous articles on the Hero's Journey. Her FANgirl opinions can be heard on the podcasts Hyperspace Theories and Fangirls Going Rogue.
Tricia Barr's novel, Wynde, won the 2014 Independent Publisher Book Award Gold Medal for Best Science Fiction/Fantasy/Horror Ebook. She was also part of Silence in the Library's successful all-female creator science fiction and fantasy anthology Athena's Daughters, which is available now. For excerpts and tales of her adventures in creating a fictional universe, hop over to TriciaBarr.com.

Loving getting to celebrate The Wars! Thanks for all you do and may the force be with you!
A day late, but yay for such a long (and continuing) run of cultural significance and being a bonding point for nerds/geek everywhere!
