Hi everyone!
As I mentioned in my introduction post last week (https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@bonniepiesse/wooohooo-introducing-myself-aussie-singer-songwriter)--amongst other things, I’m an actor and was lucky enough to play Aunt Beru (the woman who raised Luke Skywalker) in two Star Wars movies (Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith).
Being a part of the whole Star Wars universe has brought so much to my life… it’s truly amazing the doors that have opened because of it, and I’ve traveled all over the world to meet fans. There’s an amazing amazing community of Star Wars fans out there and I’ve found them so supportive of everything I’ve done since… and I’ve become a fan myself too!
I think Steemit could be an amazing way for Star Wars fans to connect and share their love of the films and I’d love to meet all the Star Wars Steemians out there!! If you’re one, please come say hi! It’d be so great to build a strong Star Wars community on here!!
Funnily enough, the very first person I really connected with on Steemit was … I just loved her posts and she’s constantly inspiring me. Turns out, she was named after Princess Leia and her brother
was named after Luke Skywalker!!! What an awesome coincidence! It really made my day yesterday when I heard that :)
I’ll also definitely be posting some Star Wars related things soon, so would love to hear what you’d be interested in!! Here are some ideas:
- My history with Star Wars… ie experiences I had on set, at fan conventions etc
- Q&A's
- Interviews with other Star Wars actors
And don’t worry I’ll be doing a Blue Milk post sometime soon :)
Hope you’re all having a great day/night wherever you are!
