I just got back from LosCon. Despite a few disappointments, it was the most fun I've had at a con in years, largely because of the people I met, including shinryou, who I've been LJ friends with for a couple years but hadn't met in person, and a very nice couple who as it turns out, live in the same town as me.

The only thing I went to today was the SCA weapon demo, which to be honest, I was a little disapointed by. They do it every year, but this year it was sort of disorganized, there was almost nobody watching, and it just seemed like their hearts weren ( Read more... )

So the good news is, I got invited to be in the art show of a con in February, by the con's art show director, who is also the art show director of several other cons, and is a member of the ComicCon staff. He must have seen my art at LosCon or WorldCon and liked it. I am flattered and sent in the registration form on Monday ( Read more... )
