I would assume she means she's going to stop doing B5 conventions, not
stop
altogether. At UKGC, she was there with the crew from the proposed(?)
new
TV SF series "First Frontier", which she's apparently signed up for. As
to
the pictures/posters, at UKGC she was charging for the photos, but with
the
money going to the John Wayne cancer charity; stuff brought along by
attendees was being signed free.
