Geeks Go Glam Giveaway Sponsor: ThinkGeek Solutions

Many people know the main ThinkGeek store for their many amazing wares, but not as many are aware of the very cool work of their Solutions counterparts. Those peeps make online stores and official merchandise for major gaming brands including Betheseda and BioWare. I know you love their games, but I’d bet you’d love their awesome merch too. 

We can’t tell you exactly what they’re going to be giving away, but if the previews we’ve been seeing are any indication, you definitely have every reason to be excited about it. 

We’re so grateful to ALL our sponsors and can’t wait for you to meet them. If you haven’t already seen: we’re going to have a great photobooth brought to you by Quirk Books and one of their newest titles: The Fan Girl’s Guide to the Galaxy. And swag for EVERYONE from the amazing WattPad. We will be rocking out to my favorite band, The Filthy Souls, thanks to High Voltage Magazine. And of course, you’ll be thirsty after walking around all day, so we’re really excited for you to meet Kombucha on Tap, who will be bringing us fresh Kombucha and brewed ice coffee. 

I can’t believe it’s finally happening THURSDAY!

If you still haven’t gotten your tickets for Geeks Go Glam, you gotta do it! Visit geeksgoglam.com to pre-order! (That’s important! We won’t be offering tickets on site!)

Where To Find Me at SDCC 2015!

I am heading down to San Diego Comic Con TOMORROW nerds and it STILL doesn't feel real. Last year I had JUST moved to LA, so I still felt like a San Diegian. NOW I am officially an Los Angeleno and going down to SDCC is feeling like a surreal experience. Being separated from San Diego makes SDCC feel different. I'm not sure I'm as prepared as I have been in the past. Schedule wise I am, but mentally...my mind isn't trying to think about all the crazy things I've signed up for.

BUT none the less...SDCC is ALMOST here and when I finally arrive in San Diego and see the convention center and see the banners, I'll realize that I am officially home.

MY FAVE part of SDCC is seeing all of my nerd friends! It is like a HUGE family reunion! Hopefully I can see you ALL at one of these amazing events!

Tuesday: The Nerd Fu podcast! I cannot wait to FINALLY podcast with some of my favorite nerds!!

Wednesday Preview Night:

Saturday:
Hannibal panel Ballroom 20, 5pm. Get your flower crowns ready!

Sunday:

Geeks Go Glam The Sponsors: High Voltage Magazine Presents The Filthy Souls

This is the announcement that I have been dying for! 

Welcome to the Geeks Go Glam party High Voltage Magazine! You MIGHT know that I do in fact work for High Voltage Magazine, so I don't think it was too hard to twist their arm into giving Geeks Go Glam some love at San Diego Comic Con. BUT none the less, having even MORE of my nerdy loves in attendance makes me even more excited for the party to start!

High Voltage Magazine was created in 2003 by music fanatics who wanted to share their love for music with the rest of the world. They started as an online publication and in March of 2006 their first print issue of High Voltage Magazine was released.

What began as a music publication has turned into the ultimate fan destination. High Voltage Magazine now cover ANYTHING you can be a fan of via their quarterly print issues, weekly radio show and daily website coverage. High Voltage Magazine is here to help you discover (and geek out about) your new favorite fandom!

High Voltage Magazine also has a line of constantly evolving limited edition fandom merch. Find them on Etsy AND at their Geeks Go Glam table!

Along with their table set up at Geeks Go Glam, High Voltage Magazine is the official sponsor of our musical act, one of my band loves, Dave Green of The Filthy Souls.

Fun Fact: High Voltage Magazine is the one who introduced me to The Filthy Souls' music! From the very first opening drum beats of Destroy You on High Voltage Radio Hour, my music heart was hooked. As soon as I moved to LA I caught my very first The Filthy Souls show at the Troubadour and the rest is history. I love these talented, fun and passionate guys.

Dave Green, the brain child of The Filthy Souls, splits his time with the full band and doing solo sets. I love TFS as a full band, but for Geeks Go Glam, Dave's relaxed and passionate solo performance is going to be perfect for the party! Watch the video above and try NOT to swoon.

NOW go get your tickets for Geeks Go Glam! Purchase them HERE before they are gone! I cannot wait to party with you nerds and share my favorite band with you!!

Geeks Go Glam The Sponsors: Wattpad!

Being Geek Chic's Liz and I are so happy to announce that Wattpad is going to be an official sponsor of Geeks Go Glam and handing out some awesome swag bags!!

Now you cannot be a nerd and NOT know what Wattpad is...but if you don't, I still love you and will give you a lil background on why Wattpad is so amazing!

Wattpad is a FREE site and the world's largest community for readers and writers! Have something you need to say?! Wattpad is the place. More than 40 MILLION people use Wattpad a month! And now I am one of them!

This sponsorship deal with Wattpad gave me the kick in the butt to finally share a novel I have been working on for the past two years! I will now be one of the 100 MILLION uploads they have on their site. My novel {which is weird to say since I don't consider it that and never have} is basically my life as fan fiction! LOL It isn't finished...tho is quite long at 100 Google Doc pages.

After the SDCC craziness is over, I'll spend some time getting it up for you all! I've had a lot of encouragement from a couple close friends and NOW feels like the WRITE time to share it!

Thank you Wattpad for sponsoring Geeks Go Glam and giving me the platform to share my novel, get feed back and be courageous!
