#Capricon46 Sunday Report: no panels today, so it's 4 hours in the Dealer Room, and then home!
...hopefully with fewer books than I came with, but I make no promises. -
#Capricon46 Saturday in review:
3 panels & a joint reading, all fab, esp the Geeky Gardening panel. Met more new readers, passed out tons of happy-making ribbons, and sold a book via a reading for the first time ever.
Got wheedled into supper at the food court of Mitsua Asian market by new friends, where ramen, mochi, & amazing fun conversation were had, culminating in dream plans for a writers retreat Someday.
Some are going party crawling now. Me, I'm for shower, cookies & bed. -
#Capricon46 Friday in review:
Tthree panels, had a blast in all three (and don't think I discgraced myself or was unbearably overbearing or awful in any of them)
met two new readers and made 3 people happy with new stickers
AND
attended a room party to celebrate the launch of @ceciliatan's new book, got to chat about aurorae experiences, and got myself a copy of the ebook.
Good day, & still time for a shower, milk & cookies before sleep so I can be awake for a panel at 10AM. -
Great news! My DIY sticker display prototype has proved functional in field-testing!
In other news, I am at Capricon 46 this weekend, with 3 panels today and 3 tomorrow, plus a reading, offering books to new readers, and generally geeking out. Great fun.
Here's a pic of my buddies at our Goshdarned Good Authors Collective's hangout table in dealers room.

Blanket fort report:
Short-notice snow storm was perfect for nesting all day. Made crockpot mashed potatoes, baked oatcakes, carved up a rotisserie chicken, and marinated cucumbers. Also made raspberry jello with extra gelatin because I am a child and it makes me happy.
Gonna feast tonight.And because I could work in front of the fireplace, I put together merch for the #Capricon46 website with new art from the designer. Wanna see?

If you're anywhere near Chicagoland, USA, Capricon is a great convention, friendly to newcomers, well worth attending.
Happening in a week!
https://capricon.orgAnd here's my panel schedule! I'll also be in the dealer room w/3 other local indie author/artists, sharing a table for moral support & mutual aid.
(I make these signs for everyone at the table. Part of my contribution to the group. I think they came out really well this year.)
