Jordan the Author

Jordan has penned an article that will hopefully make it to The Fedora Chronicles shortly.  She decided to write about Women in Anime.  Without giving too much away, before the article is published, she wrote about her favorite character and her friends favorite character, and how they have tried to take on the positive qualities of these fictional characters.

The we recorded a podcast, I was hosting, Jason and Jordan were the "guests." Our friend has to receive it, edit it and see if it was quiet enough in the house to use it for the website.  I hope it works, but if it doesn't I still have it and can always transcribe it so that it can be another article.

Jordan's Birthday is on the 31st of this month and she wants to dress up in Cosplay and go to the Anime Convention in Boston.  It's not too expensive ($25 to get in for one day) and she has a friend who's parents are willing to let her go with Jordan.  So Jason and I will try to get Press Passes, like we do to the comic book convention in NY City.  That should cut down our expenses.

So Jordan's Cosplay dress is Tohru Honda 
And this is the cartoon character.

We got the costume made longer in the leg than the cartoon.  We are going to have to work on the brown shoes.

So the only issue that will come into play is that we are going the day after Taylor's birthday!  The convention is on April 22, 23 & 24.  We plan on going on Saturday the 23rd.  Taylor is against going, she isn't interested in Anime at all.  I'm sure we'll figure things out.

The next challenge we have is that all three girls are going to be part of Taylor's best friends Quinceanera.  Which means new dresses for each girl, and shoes, and tights.  Thankfully, Melany's mom is good at hair, so we won't be going to a salon!  They are very excited though, new dresses and a chance to dress up.

So look for Jordan's article on the front page of The Fedora Chronicles!
