Renee for
Dragoncon? Let's Make It Happen... |
|
The following was posted on AUSXIP
Talking Xena's ROC Chat by
schuttegirl:
Apparently, Renee would like our help.
A friend of mine was asked by Renee's assistant to put the word out
there to write to the folks at DragonCon and ask for Renee to be a
guest. The one thing we aren't clear on is when, this year or next.
To cover our bases we wrote and suggested that Renee be asked as a
guest either this year or next. Hopefully, enough people will write
in to make it happen for Renee.
Anyway...just thought I would pass it on.
**edited to add an email address: dragoncon@dragoncon.org.
hopefully, if they all go to the same place it will have more of an
impact.
Discuss this over at ROC Chat and also send in your email asking for
Renee to be at Dragoncon!
