It’s September 1st, and I don’t know about you, but my social media feeds were pretty well saturated with posts about missing the train to Hogwarts for the Nth year in a row, or some who claimed that they had boarded the Hogwarts Express (“Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why…
It’s hard to believe that it’s been almost three full months since LeakyCon 2014’s Closing Ceremonies! (It’s taken me a long time to write this because real life hit me pretty quickly since I arrived back in Minnesota from Orlando. I’ve been writing a little every few days since then.) While at 2014’s greatest, geekiest week,…
I’m excited. Like, beyond excited. Like, super-duper uber excited. I’m flying out on Monday and will be returning the next Monday. For one week, I get to reconnect with old friends, make new friends, and fall in love with my favorite fandoms all over again. I attended my very first LeakyCon in 2011, which was…
Today marked the Harry Potter Alliance‘s 8th birthday! To celebrate, they hosted a live stream birthday party to coincide with the last hours of their EqualityFTW (For The Win) fundraiser, which concludes Saturday night at midnight. From 6pm to 10pm Eastern, the HPA hosted their live stream, then from 10pm to 12am Eastern, LeakyCon hosted…
It’s hard to believe that it’s been an entire month since I boarded a plane to Portland, Oregon for LeakyCon 2013. While I was there, I attended several events, mostly at the main stage, and mostly because I was working during the events. However, despite my busyness, I can share some thoughts about the events…
LeakyCon 2013, Part 1 took place in Portland, Oregon from Thursday, June 27th to Sunday, June 30th. LeakyCon 2013, Part 2 will take place in London, England, from Thursday, August 8th to Sunday, August 11th. I won’t be attending, because I will be portraying Motel Kamzoil, the poor tailor, in a small local production of…
LeakyCon.com released some very helpful logistical details about A Very Potter Senior Year yesterday, regarding lines and recordings. I want to write today not only about the lines, because I can all but confirm that I will be the main stage volunteer coordinator for this event and I want things to go smoothly, but also…
It’s hard to believe that in just three short weeks from today, I will be on a plane to Chicago. It’s even harder to believe that it was already a year ago today when I was on a plane back from Orlando. Last year, I attended my first convention, LeakyCon 2011, where I had the…
I am determined to make this my last post about LeakyCon. After I finish this tonight, I’m going to take a break from the Internet (including all social media and my websites/blogs) for a while. I understand that my posts have been few and far between (but wordy) in the first place, but that’s because…
I really hate deadlines. I wrote in my last post that I would finish writing about LeakyCon before July 31st, because I knew that, with the impending beta release of Pottermore sometime on July 31st, which was Harry Potter’s Golden Birthday, I would probably have less time to write afterwards. Now that I know that,…
