Darn it.

Stupid work. Why can't I just be a woman of leisure.

I have “Lightspeed” for the Galaxy's Edge booth today!! Will finally get my ride car picture! Will update with any merch info I get.

ALSO: mystery announcement at the writers roundtable this morning. These 5 authors are teaming up and they can’t tell us why.

Interesting - a lot of them seem to write young adult Star Wars novels - several focusing on Han/Chewie/Lando - and then Charles Soule writes comic books .... so maybe a major comic book series geared towards young adults readers?

Ugh, maybe I'm just exceedingly grumpy today (a distinct possibility, not ruling it out). But I despise when people do this. If you can't tell us, then just don't mention it at all.

They were on the live stage and said they likely won't be announcing what it actually is until 2020.

Doesn’t seem young adult-y... seemed bigger than comics. And Claudia very carefully said she was working on her first graphic novel and it was NOT Star Wars related.

Is anyone else a little weirded out they chose to have this on Monday instead of Thursday of last week? I feel like more people could have participated/attended.

I also saw that all the other days sold out but as of last night there were still Monday tickets left.

It was Thursday to Monday in Orlando wasn’t it?

Monday makes sense to me, but I live in one of those weird states that has a holiday today.
