I feel “old”! Not your fault; I had never heard of The Guild until I read it here!!!?! I had to go Duck Duck Go it, not I must watch it on Netflix. I learned about you from Supernatural; your character was awfully lovable and I had to follow your work. At 53 years old I still have much to learn about the successes that have contributed to the person you are today. I have absolutely not problems with this journey of discovery.
So sad I missed your panel Felica, and that I didn't catch you as I was also running around the floor on PN. Glad you had a great con and went to Fandom - I wasn't lucky enough to get a ticket this year but did get in a few years back and had the best time! Old age is catching up with all of us. I think my latest night was 11:30 and most nights I was back in bed in my room by 10 but I had a great con! Hope to see you there next year, or at other cons around the country (Galaxycon Richmond or Awesome Con in DC would be amazing!!!).

I loved Comic Con last year. Your panels were definitely the highlight. From announcing your audiobook Audie Award Winning Third Eye to your Spotlight on panel where you received the prestigious Inkpot award for outstanding contribution to all things geek. Quite the testament to your unparalleled creativity, writing, wit & humor. Keanu Reeves won the Inkpot this year so it is quite the big deal you won one. I couldn't agree more that Comic Con is at it's best when can go shopping, nerd out over friends and new stuff. That was my highlight. Can't wait till next year to do it all again and see what amazing creations you have for us to enjoy.
I was there when you set up your very first (or maybe it was the second year??) Guild booth (I was running the MGM booth and had Stargate that year!), and had the most delightful, fun, fully GEEK, convos everyday. I was already a Guild fan, but that cemented my respect and admiration of you as an entrepreneur, creator, producer. We have crossed paths many times over the years, but that is one of my fondest memories of San Diego Comic Con (and oof, this was my 19th!)!! Fangirl Power!
I look forward to meeting you at Fan Expo this year. I'm attending as a guest myself this year but not on the level you are by any means. Still, that'll be fun. Glad you've had such a great experience at SDCC.
You are the coolest! I’ve never been to a con, but I love watching videos of them on YouTube. Charlie in Supernatural is the best (my favorite female character on the show), and your character in Con Man is hilarious!
You are not alone. If I went to San Diego Comic Con my head would be hitting the pillow early too. There is a benefit to that. Early to bed early to rise means you get the fresh coffee and the good pancakes.
So, in other words, when someone like me refers to you as miss you get excited? Because year-wise, you're a couple up on me. Lol. You'll always be beautiful though.
Hey. I've been to about 10. I started going in 2000 when a writer wanted to introduce me to his editors and Whedon.
I became much more infrequent after 2006. I was there the Petco Park year.
Honestly, my experience was that the show made it harder and harder to hobnob with my more famous friends. I had quite a few pre-smartphone years there and there was so much exclusive content, so much access. People didn't have entourages. Booths were manned by year round employees of the companies.
I had more access to people in 2000 as a newbie than I had in 2014 with a pro badge. I'd e-mail or text friends with "I'm 50 feet away! You look busy!"
I used to run into Ellison and Bradbury and Stan Lee everywhere.
I think it was 2004 or so when Amber Benson attended on crutches and I'd see her all over the hotel block near the convention, struggling to juggle a large bag while maneuvering. No entourage or roof snipers. It was humanizing. I'd make sure she didn't need help every time I saw her. I think she added in a third task by tying her shoes.
It's weird to think you hadn't been before 2008. I was definitely in your corner of fandom going back to Buffy. Every week, we'd hope for more Vi.
Between you being homeschooled and a pool hall junkie and self-taught geek and not doing cons just a few years earlier, there's a whole world you missed.
I'm technically just a LITTLE younger than you but I wish you could have experienced my version of SDCC and other firsts, as I began connecting a bit before you. It's different when you aren't the main event or when the main event of the show is Bruce Campbell or Sky Captain, the pre-smartphone, pre-RDJ era.
Honestly, if you had hit right after your season of Buffy, you'd have been the star in a way you probably never experienced, without the stress or need to people please. In those days, it was mainly Dushku attending (met her a few times around the con) and Seth Green (who wasn't promoting anything or on panels or signing).
But if I could give you any experience, it would be the fan experience of when it was still fairly disorganized and no major studios were there. Going to that and not knowing anyone very well was fantastic. No using secret passages or anything. You'd just turn a corner and there was Brian Posehn or Quintin Tarantino playing piano in the lobby or something. You could buy Jim Butcher or Misty Lackey a drink and just geek out together, zero sense of status or people being herded. Even with famous people like Hamill, you could just browse back issues next to him and talk about your thoughts on CGC comics slabbing or practical effects versus CG and he'd engage back, happy NOT to be promoting anything.

Busy busy busy. Be safe enjoy life. Adulting is a forever kind of sport.
Same girl, same. ;)
