How I miss you already Dragon*Con. I can see why people buy eternal memberships. I know I'm seriously hooked. Next year, I think I'll pass on a table and just enjoy the con.

Although the majority of my time was stuck behind an artist's bazaar table, I did get to go to a couple of sessions on writing, got to say hello to Dean Haglund (who I spoke with about the geekiness of ham radio, crystal radio etc before the con), and got to see Abney Park's show. I love these guys. If they ever need a mechanic on the HMS Ophelia, I'm there ;)

After work today I'll be heading over to help set up the artist bazaar table that Brian Gibney and I share, and set up our space in the art gallery. We're bringing loads of amazing stuff. Brian's work is astounding, and thankfully he's had a lot more time to create than I had. I'm bringing about 100 photo-etched stat pendants, and some one of a kind type pendants, a few rings, and some "Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons" photo-etched copper cuffs.

I kind of wish my first year at Dragon*Con I hadn't done an artist bazaar table, because I'm now chained to it all during the con. But, I'm sure I'll still have fun! Come by and see us and say hi - our table will say Amalgam Arts Atlanta, I'll be the redhead that didn't have time for a costume.

I can't believe I'm going to be able to attend Dragon*Con for the first time as an exhibiting artist.

I've always wanted to go, since year one.

Sad, that the first year I get to actually attend there is no more Gary Gygax. :(
