It's been an interesting journey, and it continues in ways never expected.
Over 30 years ago I attended my very first scifi convention (at Toronto Trek aka Polaris). As the weekend progressed I realized it was a life-changing experience in a positive way - but not to the extent that it would eventually become. To so many people I owe many more thanks.
I've been working on a project called Red Flags In Fandom, seeking to empower fellow members of the community to be aware of the negative aspects in hopes of protecting both person and pocketbook. So far it continues to be a rewarding experience.
Economic realities have also been a factor, hence why I have scaled-down some of the previous features, such as the nostalgic photo gallery going back decades, as well as the original Snake-Eyes Tribute site. Those photos are still archived and can be retrieved if needed, but this also frees up resources for other uses as all traffic/visits should now redirect to this page.
I'm still around and can be found at conventions here and there, or online... I've added links below.
Be well, be safe, and have fun.
