Wellington Cosplayers, time to speak up!

By Grassangel. 26/02/11, 06:14 am

So er... because I posted a reminder to the LJ community for the post-exam picnic last year, a journalist contacted me via LiveJournal asking to interview Wellington cosplayers in the runup to Armageddon, particularly those planning to compete in the competition. (Her whole Wellington focus is why I'm posting here, rather than in the Wellygeddon forum, unless a mod thinks otherwise.)

This is the comment she left me on a public post:

Spoiler:

Since I just kind of dabble and definitely don't compete, I don't suppose someone else would like to interviewed/make this article one of the good ones we love?

:0 I wouldn't mind stepping up, time permitting. It'd be nice to do it in a group. :]

I would but I'm not really a typical cosplayer (older then Cher, don't know anything about the skit side of things) or particully serious about competiting- but I'm passing the info on though!

Keen! Super keen, in fact :) Do you want to pass on contact info for us, or shall we talk to her directly?

Sorta keen, but I'm not really planning on entering, haha. (I COULD BE A 'WHY I'M NOT ENTERING' or talk about last year, lol).

Keen if she wants me : P.

I figure since she did post on a public entry, you could contact her, but I'm sending off an email right now explaining that I wouldn't be much use to her (possibly) and that I brought it up with you guys. I'll ask her whether she wants to be contacted, or if she'd rather contact you. (And I'll let you know the response.)

I think she's asking for cosplayers from Wellington in general, with bonus points for competing at Armageddon. So stop thinking you're all not a 'typical' cosplayer!

EDIT: My e-mail keeps being bounced back, saying the recipient's email address hasn't been found in the system. Not quite sure why, but I solve it later in the morning.
