It was nice to see a few Spocks wondering this crowd :) <br /><br />Hank, aw, thanks! To paraphrase: in writing TV, you need to have the story arc and the dialogue, then the actors and directors and set designers and everyone fills everything else in. In writing comics, you have to be super specific in spelling EVERYTHING out (including realizing that the thing you need the guy to hold in this panel should appear three panels before).Dana Cameronhttp://www.danacameron.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-34548161686693452582013-04-04T10:50:10.795-04:002013-04-04T10:50:10.795-04:00I can really relate to this, Dana.

Generally my fan enthusiasms have been pretty tame, taking me to book signings, television show sets, and the theater. I do, however, have fond memories of attending a Star Trek convention, which was pretty much like the WonderCon goings-on that Dana has described although it didn’t take hours of standing in line to get into the panel with the show’s stars . . . .Joan Emersonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-88242715346719356062013-04-04T05:43:31.534-04:002013-04-04T05:43:31.534-04:00Dana, that looks like so much fun.
