We interrupt your regularly scheduled program to bring you breaking news...
I'll be a panelist helping out with a few rounds of Frantic Fanfic at Leaky this weekend! Come say hi!
@careofmagicalshippers and friends are hosting and we all got together the other day to play a few rounds and it is so much fun! Come join in on the chaos!
Whether jamming irl or online, I know we’ll have a good time. Joined together all in song, Oh we could go all night long. We’ll be laughing and clapping and playing along. To songs that everyone knows. And it goes: We feel it in our souls, the magic of rock and roll. Oh, we really really miss wizard rock shows.
This is still one of my absolute favorite memories despite how my feelings about John Green and his books have changed over the past few years. I still can't believe I managed to work up the courage to talk to him at the airport when I realized he was going to be on the same flight as me to Boston for the og LeakyCon in 2009. But I just knew I would never have an opportunity like this ever again and if I didn't carpe that diem that I would regret it.
His book, Looking for Alaska, was instrumental in helping me process the grief of losing my paternal grandfather (Pops was my first time experiencing the loss of a grandparent) and I will forever be grateful to my roommate at Terminus 2008 in Chicago for introducing me to his work.
Seeing John Green waiting for me to get off the plane in Boston because his offer to me back in Indy to share a cab to the hotel we were both staying at was an actual legitimate offer and then getting to walk & talk with him through Logan International & during the cab ride to the hotel was an absolutely surreal experience but I was so grateful to have the chance to let him know how much his book meant to me.
Some HP related (fan)art made for @leakycon! ✨🦉🔮✨ Having been an HP fan for ages since I grew up with the books, I haven’t actually made much fan art of it since getting older. It was nostalgic drawing the creatures I spent all my time doodling in middle school again. 🦄✨ ⚡️🪶🌙 Disclaimer again that even though I love this piece of fiction, I do not share the hurtful & problematic views of the author 😑👎. * * * #kelschoo #kookookchoo #kelseychoo #fanart #harrypotterart #magicalcreatures #unicorn #leakycon #denverleakycon https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjvr-ZmO_KT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

And I think it’s safe to say, We’re all waiting for that day. But until we get there this can be our song, I hope that you’ll sing along. You know it goes: We really really miss, When we return it’ll be such bliss, But until then, we’ll have to miss Wizard rock shows.
