Life After RavenCon & Stuff
It's good to be home! We made it safely back from the convention and pretty much had dinner and went to bed--that is after the highly excited puppy pummeled us with dog kisses. Conventions are great--their fun and entertaining, but man are they tiring!
Anyway, it was another great year for RavenCon. Pretty much everyone I spoke with enjoyed the convention. My hat goes off to the staff for another superb effort at running a convention that has a little bit of something for everyone. In my mind they, or we, are setting the mark for what conventions need to be. Sure I am a little biased because I help on staff as well, but I think when you talk to people about it--you'll see what I mean.
Operation Save the Innocent book launch went very well--thanks to everyone who came and participated in the raffle--there were some big winners. For those of you who still have not gotten your copy of the new book--there is still hope. Amazon.com is still running their sale on it at: Click here. It won't last for much longer because stock is on the way to the distributors as we speak. What I had at the convention was a special lot shipped overnight from Canada.
I actually had a little time to hang out with some of the other guests...David Coe, Danielle and Mike McPhail, John Wright....and this list can go on and on. Let's just say that it was great to see everyone! That is still the best part of going to conventions to begin with--socializing and hanging out with friends. I also did a few panels but of course the quick write is always my favorite because you never know what you will get out of it in terms of a finished product.
And a VERY Special thanks to Gail Martin, www.ChroniclesOfTheNecromancer.com and her video blogging technology--she graciously has provided links to hear and see some interviews with many of the guests! Thanks again Gail!
