It’s taken ten years, but I’ve become acutely aware of how I spend my money at autograph shows these days. At one time I insisted on either having both an autograph and photo op or nothing at all. I didn’t like paying for photo ops, but now I’ve become grateful for them because when they’re separate from the cost of the autograph – and typically cheaper – I can actually save money and still be happy. The picture with the celeb is worth a thousand words, and the autograph of someone of whom I’m only minimally interested in becomes extraneous. A perfect case in point to this notion (which I’m sure I’ve now stated a dozen times before, probably using different words) is Shane Rimmer, who made what was touted as his first ever appearance at the Hollywood Show on April 9, 2016.

It seems like an old fashioned concept to those of us who aren’t old enough to ‘remember’, but celebrities used to give away their autographs for free without question. Yes, I know many of them still do when they are hounded by fans out in public, after one of their shows or play or such. But I have become so accustomed to paying for autographs and even photo ops at these celebrity shows, that it becomes a beautiful treat when one of them is there just because they want to be, and will sign and pose for free. Dan Roebuck was one such person when I finally met him at the HorrorHound in Indianapolis on September 8, 2013. 
Steven Williams’ relevance as an actor is right up to date with his most recent recurring role on the TV series Supernatural – which I’ve never seen. In fact he boasts a rather lengthy filmography that includes such interesting inclusions as The X-Files, The Bernie Mac Show, Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday, 227, Gimme a Break, Dallas, The Dukes of Hazzard, Doctor Detroit, and a small part in Twilight Zone: The Movie. He also had a starring role in the TV series 21 Jump Street.
