OTW Fannews: Finding Connections

At ComicMix Emily S. Whitten expounds on what years of GISHWHES activity has brought us.

"Other than all of the nifty things accomplished due to Gishwhes, I think the biggest thing I take away from it is the warm and positive attitude of the competition and everyone involved. It’s encouraging and inspiring to see all of the people who have chosen to celebrate and express their fandom in a fun and inclusive way; especially because, in the end, it is always our own personal choice as to how we want to move through the world; and how we choose to put ourselves out there can have bigger consequences for change than we can ever imagine."

Fandom can be about finding connections and building great things together – here are some examples http://bit.ly/1FyrIM2
