Today, I went to WonderCon with my dad and it was a glorious time!

I SAW THE FLASH SUIT!
While I was at WonderCon 2017, I got an up close look at the Flash Suit from the CW’s The Flash show. I have seen this suit all the time on the show, but it was rapturous to see it up close and personal like this. I could feel the Speed Force coursing through my veins as I examined this suit.
WONDERCON 2017: I TRIED ON CHAINMAIL
During WonderCon 2017, I received yet another opportunity to gain inspiration for my fantasy book. I got to wear chainmail even though the piece I wore was meant for someone smaller than me. Still, despite the poor fit, I got to gain much needed information on the weight and flexibility of the chainmail, which will come in handy when I describe the battle scenes in my fantasy book.
WONDERCON 2017: IRON MAN CAR
During WonderCon 2017, I got to ride an Iron Man themed car called the Renault Twizy, which I saw James May drive in St. Petersburg, Russia in Top Gear. Because I am a behemoth it was a tight fit, but it was fun to be inside a car that was superhero themed.
WONDERCON 2017: ASSASSIN VAMBRACE
While doing my fashion show during WonderCon 2017, I got to try on an assassin’s vambrace. It was made of leather and very comfortable on the forearm. I am thinking of drawing inspiration for some of the costumes in my fantasy books.
WONDERCON 2017: COSTUMES
I participated in a fashion show at WonderCon 2017 in which I tried on an Assassin’s Creed costume. I felt empowered in the costume like I was someone or something else. It was awesome!
WONDERCON 2017: MANDALORIANS
I ran into fellow Star Wars fans at WonderCon 2017 who were devout Mandalorian fans. They remembered me from our previous meetings and we had a lengthy conversation in the Mandalorian language of Mando’a. It was great to meet fellow Star Wars fans again.
WONDERCON 2017 DROIDS
While promoting my books at WonderCon 2017, I finally found the droids I was looking for. I did my impersonation of C-3PO while mingling with R2 units.
HOTEL REVIEW: THE HILTON IN ANAHEIM
During WonderCon 2015, I stayed at the Hilton, which was stationed right next door to the Anaheim Convention Center. It was a large and luxurious hotel that every convention visitor should experience. In addition, it has an elegant restaurant that has an extensive selection of desserts, seafood, and a breakfast buffet that is to die for. The rooms are fairly sizable and comfortable with a view of Disneyland and the Convention Center. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is seeking a vacation to remember.
WONDERCON DAY 2
Today has been even busier than yesterday. I have sold even more books, handed many more fliers and book marks, and captured the attention of a few more reporters. Also, I caught the attention of an instructor at a martial arts dojo for autistic children. After everything we experienced so far, my team and I are planning to make my next WonderCon book signing even bigger than this one. Tomorrow is the last day of the convention and will likely be the grand finale. Wish me luck and Happy Easter!
