Saturday April 18th 2009 was filled with excitement as we attended the Xanadu convention out here in Sunny Las Vegas.

We had the opportunity to present two back to back workshops with authors, Lynn Crain and Erin Sinclair. We discussed Kick butt heroines in scifi novels and the second workshop was a discussion on e-book publishing, the pros and cons.

Once we had our lunch we meandered back inside with our books in hand and ready to sign away. Well to our surprise we were seated at a table right smack in the middle of Dean Mitchell, David Decio and James Dodd. To some of you who aren’t familar with them, they have acted in movies and shows such as Harry Potter, Hellboy, Dr. Who, 007 and Star wars.

We sat and chatted the entire afternoon with all of them and I can’t tell you what a blast we had, it was just truly amazing, having some of my favorite actors this close.

The best part was when I received a kiss and hug from David Decio when we left..he was just awesome.

Xanadu is an incredible convention put together by two great guys, Alan White and Scott Anderson, along with their awesome crew: Jacqueline Monahan / Press Liaison

Lynne Kourtidis / Registration Lead / Public Relations

Brenda Dupont / Masquerade Maven

Elizabeth Guernsey / Marketing

Keith T. W. Anderko

Together this team put together a convention worth attending. If you can you are a scifi, fantasy or horror buff this is the place to be, believe me they don’t disappoint.
