GeekGirlCon Star Wars Panel: Twitter Recap

August 13, 2012August 16, 2012 Fangirl GeekGirlCon, Star Wars

Like the inaugural convention last year, this year’s GeekGirlCon was a rousing success. I had an amazing time meeting so many new geek girls and fellow fans, and the supportiveness of the community never ceases to impress me. I’ll be back later in the week with my full report on the convention and my Star Wars panel, but first I have to recuperate from my cross-country travels home. For today’s first recap post, I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite tweets about Saturday’s panel.

GeekGirlCon: Introducing the Star Wars Panelists

August 4, 2012August 4, 2012 Fangirl Ashley Eckstein, GeekGirlCon, Star Wars

One week from today – on Saturday, August 11, at 12:30 p.m. Pacific – is the Star Wars panel I’m hosting at GeekGirlCon. Which means now’s a good time to introduce the panelists. Rather than just give some generic bios, though, I wanted to do something more interesting and fun. So I asked each of them a few questions to help explain why I invited them to be on the panel, and give a sense of the perspective they’ll bring to our discussion.

GeekGirlCon Spotlight: Grayhaven Comics’ Erica Heflin

One of my favorite parts of GeekGirlCon last year was getting the chance to find new vendors and artists who spoke to my inner fangirl. I’ve been reading the Grayhaven Comics for a little over a year, and it’s amazing to see the process of storytellers breaking into the business. So I was very excited to learn Erica Heflin would be representing Grayhaven at GeekGirlCon.
