Aaron has not been invited to DragonCon. He wants to attend and he wants your help.

Direct quote from Aaron …. “Tell fans to tell DragonCon we want Aaron Douglas there. They are passing on me being there”. When I told him that I just assumed that he would be at DragonCon and that they just hadn’t added his name to the guest list yet, he said “DragonCon passed on me”.

I have no idea why or what is going on. But if you are going to DragonCon and want to see Aaron there, please get in contact with DragonCon and let them know. According to the GUEST SERVICES page on the DragonCon website (http://dragoncon.org/dc_guest_services.php) The GUEST SERVICES DIRECTORS are …..

Mischa Hess (Senior Directors of Guest Services) dc_guest_services @ yahoo .com (remove the spaces)
Kat Haines (Director of Guest Operations) kat @ urbanfantasy .org (remove the spaces)

I’m not sure if these are the people we need to email, but it’s a start. Or if you know who we should get in contact with, please reply and let me know and I’ll update this post.

And please feel free to copy and paste this post to any BSG message board(s) that you think can help (I’ve already posted this on the Skiffy and Gateworld Aaron/Tyrol threads).

Thank you.

UPDATE (August 14th, 2007): A friend (who knows I have limited internet access while I’m away) texted me to say that Katee Sackhoff cancelled DragonCon. I just spoke to Aaron and jokingly commented that with Katee cancelling they should invite him now. He said that Katee and Jamie have both cancelled and that the DragonCon people have called his agent and said that they have listened to Aaron’s fans and they really want him to be at DragonCon and they’re going to do whatever it takes to get him there last minute. Aaron asked me to pass on a huge thank you to everyone that contacted DragonCon and asked that he be invited. It’s not official yet that he is going because his agent is still in negotiations with DragonCon but it’s looking really good. I’ve asked him to let me know once it’s official so I can let you guys know (or keep checking the DragonCon website to see if his name has been added).

UPDATE (August 16th, 2007): Aaron said that the guy responsible for getting him to DragonCon is Pat Henry. I just went and looked him up on the DragonCon website and found his email address and I thought it would be really great if we all emailed Pat to thank him. His email address is phenry @ mylink .net (remove the spaces).

Edit: Sorry. Probably should have mentioned that Pat is the Chairman (and also the Treasurer) at DragonCon.
