Craig Miller

Writers of the Future Podcast Episode 346 Join Craig Miller, Lucasfilm’s first Director of Fan Relations, as he shares Star Wars memories, from iconic interviews to shutting down Illinois’ phones!

I was interviewed for the Writers of the Future Podcast. A fun interview. With an audience of over 3 million, quite possibly the largest audience of any interview I've done.

I'll be at L.A. Comic Con this weekend.

All set up at Legacy Expo, a Star Wars convention at the Burbank Marriott Convention Center.

And about to give a talk and slide show based in "More Movie Memories".

The book "More Movie Memories" by Craig Miller sits on a book shelf in front of other Star Wars books.

Join @craigmiller.bsky.social at Legacy Expo this September 13th and 14th in Burbank, California, and celebrate the classic Expanded Universe with other fans!

It isn't working

JB Pritzker, the Governor of Illinois, posted this on X. Really. The real JB Pritzker. The actual governor.

I think that's great but I think it's too early. Right now, people are figuring out where they're going to live and if they can rebuild. Books (and other collections) will be down the road.

Oh, and there may even be droids hanging around

Coming up this Sunday, I'll be speaking (and signing books) after a screening of Star Wars (or A New Hope, as the kids call it). At the Frida Cinema in Santa Ana.

Happy Thanksgiving! Don't be like the Pilgrims. They didn't use forks (the Devil's tool!). They used spoons for soup & stew because their faith wasn't strong enough to withstand the heat.

Spend the holiday with people you actually like.

The weekend of Thanksgiving is Loscon, L.A.'s own science fiction con, at the LAX Hilton Hotel.

Loscon invited Genny & me to be their Fan Guests of Honor. We'll be on panels and I'll be signing copies of "Star Wars Memories" and "More Movie Memories".

Full program and other info at loscon.org

Dr. Oz? Really?

I'm expecting Dr. Phil for the National Institute for Mental Health and Captain Kangaroo for the Secretary of the Army.

Apparently the only qualification is have been on TV.
