It was my first time both attending and being a guest of honor at Fandemonium this year. I sold a total of eight books and had a great time in the process. My limited stock of Null_Pointer books were gone by the end of the second day. I still have some Starstrikers books left over, so if you want to get one directly from me, let me know.
Fandemonium is a convention that is held by the fans and for the fans of Comics, Anime and SF/F. I got to see all kinds of creative costumes and interesting people celebrating the things they love in popular culture. I shared a table with fellow local author Matthew McMillan and his step kids. Matt and I had fun talking shop at a writer’s panel that was well attended and we both agreed to do the same kind of thing next year. Here is a Flickr stream of the pictures I took of the attendees.
If you live in the area or nearby, please consider putting Fandemonium 2010 on your list of must-attend conventions for next year. You’ll have a great time and meet some very cool people who love SF/F as much or more than you do. Special thanks goes out to Borneo the convention King, for inviting me to attend this year as SF Guest Author!
Matt and I discussing writing at our panel.
Well, it was an informal setting to be sure. But sometimes that can be more intimate for the audience. That’s a table down in front, by the way. But we elected to sit on stage instead.
Hey, you survived. I’m sure the GoH tattoo won’t hurt very much longer. :)
And I’ve gotta ask, don’t they have tables out West? Although I think the addition of the stage is pretty cool.
