Err I just had this idea because of Gamingnerd's comment in the photo thread...

Anyone planning to attend a convention in the US/Canada this year?

My friends and I travel to the American ones and sell as artists or exhibitors. So it'll be easy to find me since I'm mos likely behind my booth Smile (well, I tend to wander a lot but it drives me friends nuts since they have to watch my table for me lol).

Sooooo, let me know if you're attending any of these cons Smile
Once I know my table location, I'll post maps ^^

my friends and i have already booked booths in the artist alley for Anime Expo. There's a really high chance that I'll be going.

I'm not sure if AX will tell me my booth placement ahead of time, but I'll let you know if so...

I stick out like a sore thumb. i sell crafty stuff (cosplay) and all my neighbors will be asian (i think there will be 20+ of us coming from toronto...)
I always wanted to but never could... sadly...

But someday I will definatly go
im trying to see if i can go to Anime Expo and Otakon with friends hopefully >.<
i'll be in the dealer's room for otakon....^^ i'll let you know where i'll be (that room is freaking huge!). hopefully i don't get shoved in a corner somewhere... >_<

actually...it seems that I'm going to AX for sure now!!!!!!!!
