Verity! Extra! - A Con-versation

Published: Feb. 6, 2013, 6 p.m.

b"This week's Extra! is a timely one. With Gallifrey Oneonly about a week away Deb, Erika, Kat, and Lynne discuss conventions--of the Doctor Who and the general SF variety. Connecting in person to fellow fans can be one of the best fan experiences, though it doesn't always work out that way. We chat about our con experiences in general and our thoughts on Gally specifically. Will you be at Gallifrey One this year? So will we! Well, four of us anyway--Deb, Erika, Kat, and Liz will be there with ribbons to share! We hope to see some of you there. \\xa0In addition to generally milling about throughout the weekend, some of us will be on panels. Please come see what we have to say!
