I am on on a Star Wars Legends (EU) facebook group and I recently learned about a legends convention they are doing in California in September. I am going to try to go but not sure if I'll be able to. Totally separate from Disney which is good but it is a shame that it had to be this way. To think I thought Disney buying Star Wars and Marvel was a good thing when I first heard about it.

There will be some EU authors there and other guests I think. I really wish Disney would just sell the rights to the EU canon to someone else so that they can have someone who is interested in writing stories within that universe. Or allow like an animated adaptation of NJO or Heir to the Empire. If you haven't seen it, check out what Darth Angelus has done on youtube with his Heir to the Empire animated adaption. Sucks that he can't get paid for it and I fear Disney will do what Star Trek did. I guess they are intimidated by fans who have better story ideas than they do.
