After avoiding Creation Conventions for over a decade (maybe
2 decades), I temporarily lifted my ban on them and attended the Dallas show. It was a Star Trek show and they had a few
names that piqued my interest.
On Friday night of the convention, I picked up VaughanArmstrong and Ethan Phillips. Both were
nice guys. By the time I got them, they had been signing for 2 hours. It’s
always interesting to see these guys interact with the fans. Trekkies can be
hard to work with. These guys were nice and accommodating and smiling. I overheard
some comments by the fans that made me wince and that made me appreciate the
effort the celebs put out even more.
I was at the end of the line. The convention (rightly)
allows the fans that paid for the better seats to go first. It’s a nice system as everyone can stay in
their seats and relax. Because I only paid for steerage, I was the last to be
called. Even with that, I still got done
before a lot of others that paid for nicer seats. I didn’t need to stay for everyone
that was signing at that time.
