This Is Why Year of the Fangirl is Awesome!

Since Her Universe’s Year of the Fangirl campaign kicked off, we’ve featured each Fangirl of the Day on our weekly Fangirls Around the Web posts. (Wow, there were a lot of fangirls in that sentence!)

On July 15th, we included Sarah (aka @JediTink) in our roundup. She commented back and shared a fun fan film she participated in called TPZ, a Star Wars-themed spoof of the television show TMZ.

Year of the Fangirl has definitely helped create a community to share our passions. Check out the video below.

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 strong female characters. She also writes about Star Wars for Random House’s science fiction and fantasy blog Suvudu.com and Star Wars Insider magazine and is a contributor for Her Universe’s Year of the Fangirl.

Tricia is putting the finishing touches on her first novel, Wynde – a military science fiction with a fantastical twist that features heroines Vespa Wynde and Gemini Reed. For excerpts and tales of her adventures in creating a fictional universe, hop over to TriciaBarr.com.
