Serenity Day 9/30/2005

Serenity Day                                                       

Really I could never have dreamed for anything that has happened since Firefly aired. It has brought me in touch with the most wonderful people I know, Browncoats. I love traveling and meeting Browncoats in person. Meeting the cast has been a pleasure and seeing Serenity fly again was a dream come true.

 

I want to thank Christopher Buchanan for all he has done for the fans.

 

Thanks to Joss for giving everything to Firefly/Serenity.

 

Thank you to Nathan, Adam, Alan Sean, Ron, Gina, Summer, Morena and last but not least Jewel, the best heroes we could ever hope for.

 

Thanks to all the special guest stars Mark Sheppard, Christina Hendricks, Jonathan Woodward and Michael Fairman, Yan and Rafael Feldman, David Krumholtz and Chiwetel Ejiofor and the entire crew that made Firefly/Serenity fly.

 

I am most thankful for each Browncoat that has come into my life. Each of you is a joy and I think of you as family. Some of you I have not met but you are still family. I continue to hope that Serenity may fly again.

 

Flanvention December 2005

 

8 of 9 of our Big Damn Heroes were present as well as Joss Whedon and Greg Edmonson the composer for the music of Firefly, a part of Serenity itself. Gina Torres was greatly missed. All I remember is Adam Baldwin yelling my name in at the beginning of the panel and Nathan telling everyone I was a movie star. I remember a feeling of utter joy to have the cast all together. I believe Gina was the only one missing. I met Greg Edmondson and got his autograph on my Jason Palmer Firefly print.

Trying hard to squeeze something out of my brain, Alan Tudyk’s brain was fried when I came through for my autograph so there was no recognition. Nathan on the other hand was writing a book. I was expecting his autograph and I was talking and asked him a question then looked and realized he was still writing and apologized for interrupting him. He was sweet. I had my Firefly Comics signed and on his he wrote:

 

Rosie, Remember being in the movie? Much Love, Nathan Fillion

 

That is my very favorite autograph. I have it framed.

 

I had printed copies of my book, The Many Adventures of Rosie and Other Faithful Browncoats and gave each Cast Member a copy. Adam thanked me for writing up those reports. He said he knew they meant a lot to people. That is all I remember. There was lots of laughter and joy and fun. It was a mighty fine shindig.
