(Photo of Osric Chau courtesy of @FangasmSPN) Another Vancon has arrived! Bardicvoice is back for another year of fun and festivities. Lucky for us, as she has done so well at prior conventions, she has the blow by blow details via her awesome tweets! Yesterday was the kickoff day for the convention, which was handled…
We have more information on Rob Benedict and Richard Speight Jr.’s project, The King of Cons!
This week’s Supernatural around the Net.
It’s Salute to Supernatural Toronto this weekend and WFB writer Gerry Weaver has been there all weekend enjoying the festivities. She’s been sharing a lot of her experiences via Twitter, and thanks to Storify we’re able to share them here.
Part 1 of my report on “M” day (aka Saturday) at the Vancouver Supernatural convention featured the indomitable Mark Sheppard, plus Tahmoh Penikett, Matt Cohen and the myriad of other guests who had shared Friday’s fun with us. Saturday afternoon’s fun began with a splash, watching Gil McKinney and Matt Cohen get wet for the…
Saturday morning. The dreaded “morning after” Karaoke. Everyone is more than a little blurry eyed and definitely a bit sluggish. I turned in at 2 a.m., and that was only because I left before Karaoke was over! Rob Benedict and the Elastic Waste Band opened Saturday’s festivities because Richard Speight, Jr., our fearless leader, was…
I was ecstatic when Metatron held up a thread from Castiel’s coat and said “This is the curious incident…”! Threads! Metatron, the ultimate writer, acknowleded that a story is woven together (or in his case, unravelled) by layers of minutely detailed, intricate threads. Hurray! We must be on the right track if Robbie Thompson, the…
I loved all the aspects of Meta Fiction, including the meta ones. Robbie Thompson’s script was a profound brain teaser; Jensen Ackles’ depiction of Dean’s struggle with the effects of the Mark of Cain was masterfully subtle; Jared Padalecki brought Sam’s worry over his brother and his rage at Gadreel and Metatron into his every…
When I was a little girl, I couldn’t wait for bedtime—okay most of the time. No, it wasn’t because I wanted to go to sleep. It was because I knew that before that happened I’d have a bedtime story read to me by my dad. It was our bonding time—and it’s where I encountered my…
“What makes a story work?” Good question. It’s one that I’m not sure I can answer at this time, and the real question is, should I have to? “Meta Fiction” was a great story, and it’s about time there was even a small amount of movement in the angel arc, but I personally found…
I almost skipped Richard Speight Jr’s and Matt Cohen’s panel that opened the Supernatural Chicago convention (ChiCon) Saturday morning. I had nothing against them personally but the Friday night Karaoke left me a bit blurry eyed and more than a little sluggish. Nightsky I’m the Co-Editor-in-Chief, Social Media Manager (Twitter, Facebook and Instagram), Live Tweet…
Veteran convention goers say that each convention has its own personality. The convention is affected by the location, venue, stars appearing that year, the mood of the actors and the fans, the season that is airing on TV and a number of other, probably unidentifiable factors. As I think about this year’s Supernatural Chicago Convention…
