So we were out and about in the midst of Festival Weekend and caught Dragon*Con. This was the 25th aniversary of the convention and as always hosted a forum for all alum in the form of literature, art, film, and music. Not to mention the active members and participants that complete the convention, while bringing a festival and a city to life.

The convention takes the face of a celebration and a festival, with people from all forms and facets of life. Granted many see a spectacle of this phenomenon, but most were there for their connection to science fiction, horror, fantasy, and media in all forms to represent such genres. One can only question what is placed in a mind, to make people like what they like. At Dragon*Con that question is somewhat left behind, for participants can seperate from the holdrum of everyday and indulge into fantasy in its own strange way, becoming real and tangible. This reality creates its own universe and that universe is Dragon*Con.
