By day, Maggie Birge-Caracappa is the editorial director at a medical communications company in Yardley, PA.
The rest of the time, Maggie sees to the needs of her kitty overlords; polices the grammar on all kinds of published material including signage, menus, and food packaging; and cuddles with her wife while watching her favorite shows (Killjoys, Game of Thrones, and Doctor Who among them). She continues to be far too excited to be working for the Daily Dragon.
You can find Maggie at her blog, https://inmysize.org and on Twitter @inmysizeblog.
Catherine Tate and Freema Agyeman (in her first Dragon Con appearance) graced Hilton’s Grand Salon Saturday and answered fans’ burning questions about how it felt to explore time and save the universe beside the 10th Doctor, played by David Tennant.

Somehow, I didn’t think that a magic show sponsored by the Skeptics track would be quite as popular as it was, but the Grand West ballroom in the Hilton was full Saturday night to see Curt Anderson and Matt Dillahunty perform an abbreviated portion of their stage shows. The evening of magic was hosted by Jamie Swiss, who claimed “not… Read more →
Dragon Con fans of Hamilton packed the Grand West ballroom at the Hilton on Saturday night to get a chance to sing songs together from their favorite musical. “HamilTunes: An American Sing-Along” is an officially licensed event that happens in various locations all over the country.

Ethan Peck makes playing Spock on Star Trek: Discovery look easy, but he is very open about the terror he felt when taking the part. He hates to admit it, but he got past all the fear and negative self-feedback by practicing gratitude, self-love, and positivity. “I hate to say it, but it’s true. And it worked!” Peck knew that… Read more →
I figured that The Greatest Showman Sing Along panel in the Hilton Grand West Ballroom Friday afternoon would pretty much be what it says on the tin: a group of nerds in a room together singing their favorite songs from the movie. What I wasn’t expecting was the energy of the crowd and the microphones at the front of the… Read more →
David Tennant, best known for Good Omens, Broadchurch, and of course his stint as the 10th Doctor on Doctor Who, started his panel early, a good omen for the fans who were lucky enough to get a seat in the packed Marriott Atrium Ballroom on Friday morning. The entire mood of the panel from the beginning was energetic and playful,… Read more →
