It's amazing the people who love Axanar. One email I got last year was from Andy Weir, the author of The Martian. Andy wrote me last year and told me he loved Axanar. This was before I even read the book! But Diana had read it and I promptly borrowed her copy and read it. I have to say, the book is a MUST READ. Well, this past summer at San Diego Comic Con, our good friend Mary Anne Butler was interviewing Andy, and she arranged for us to meet Andy after her interview was done.
Diana, Andy Weir and me
So go see The Martian, as I hear it is an awesome movie! Diana and I will see it this week.
Meanwhile, today was spent driving up to Modesto to Steamhouse Con. We don't have high hopes for this con, as it is a first year con, but we were featured and the promoter really wanted us, so we will see!
Dinner with our friend and Prelude to Axanar sound designer Mark Edward Lewis Friday night.
