After KingCon!!!




It was a really, really long day yesterday. I got to the Con location early (aways early) and humped my gear inside to find a amazing NYC like building, very retro/brick. Supposedly it used to be a old bath house. Very cool, BUT very small. They had all the tables back to back, which left vendors very little room to sit or sell or do anything. Anyway, I ran into Shawn (old HS/College) pal who has some great work for sale also.
The show was pretty good, modest turnout of customers and I even made sales of my books, shirts, and prints. It could always be better, but I left satisfied. Things learned, until the economy turns around or at least better than it is sales for this kinda of stuff will be limited. I also have to figure out where and when I will buy a table at these conventions. I talked to Shawn and Carl about pooling our resources for road trips to other conventions next year. I also talked to a guy who is convinced that the Ipad/Kindle/others will revolutionize the field. He maybe right. I will have to research that more, I think the potential is vast. Another Con more experience.


PS one of the pics is of "Cat Boy" a very strange character that all but fell in love with Danny...
