a shattered dream

Feb 13, 2012 02:57

Every time I tried to write about No Fate Con's cancellation, I failed miserably. My words were too personal, too emotional and I'd say things I shouldn't say. But not posting about it has kept me from posting anything else - I've felt like I couldn't move on without closing out that chapter. So I'm finally closing it:

"When there are things to celebrate, they should be celebrated."

The Sarah Connor Chronicles should be celebrated. It should have a convention. We tried really hard and we couldn't make it work. It was just too freaking expensive. We cancelled and everyone was refunded.

End of chapter.

The worst thing about planning a convention is that it sucks all the fun out of fandom. Now that it's behind me, I'm rekindling my TSCC love with a rewatch (my first in a very long time). I started at the beginning a few days ago and... Oh how I love season 1. It feels like home to me :)

In other news, some of us want to do a TSCC fan meetup. With fans scattered so far and wide, logistics are difficult, but there's a push for getting together in Los Angeles (so we could visit some of the locations where the show was filmed). If anything gets solidified, I'll post details. Also, several TSCC fans (myself included) are going to be at Dragon*Con this year, so if any others are going and want to meet up, let me know.

And yeah, I do like other shows too. The Walking Dead is great. Once Upon a Time is nice. I like Lost Girl. I'm still hanging in there with Fringe... In time, I'm sure I'll get to posting about them. But The Sarah Connor Chronicles? That's my one true fandom love. And it's the only show I've ever wanted to celebrate.

no fate con, i should be working, dragon*con, sarah connor chronicles, sadness, fandom
