Watchers on the Wall
Participates in 6 items
Samantha is a contributing writer to Watchers On the Wall whose journey into Game of Thrones obsession began in 2011, when her now-fiance wouldn’t stop talking about how amazing the first season of Game Of Thrones was. Lacking cable but wanting to know what all the hubbub was about, she picked up the Song Of Ice and Fire series, and her life has never been the same — especially after she met Sue and Oz at the 2017 Con of Thrones and pestered them into letting her write for WOTW. And yes, she did eventually get cable. When she’s not answering questions no one asked about ASOIAF, Samantha fumbles her way through open mic nights in a feeble attempt at stand-up comedy and spends far, far too much time on Twitter.
