Con Wrap Up (NorWesCon 46)
Added 2024-04-02 16:47:18 +0000 UTCNorWesCon was a lot of fun.
I plan to do it again next year, but I think I might aim for a booth instead of a table, so there’s more room to set things out.
I met some people who had read the books (including one of the organizers of the con, which was neat), signed a bunch of things, dropped off a dozen books at the little free library for people to find by surprise (with bookmarks and vellum art inserts of Sam inside), picked up a pile of books from authors near me to check out, and all that good stuff.
I also need to get a giant banner that says “Hey, come this way!” so I can stick it at the end of the hall until they tell me to take it down.
I picked up some pretty cool dice and things to stick on my table, including a d20 that is actually a dice box. That’s the green-gold one on my table in one photo. The top of it slides off and you can put 15 or so dice inside.
There was a lot of neat stuff in the vendor room, and I wish I’d had more time to wander around and poke through it.
I added a random photo here of some decorative plum blossoms from my neighborhood, or at least I think that tree is supposed to be a plum. Either way, it’s neat!
Next chapter probably today. Back to it now.

Just looked. All sold out for booth spots this year. Added the newsletter though. Maybe next year.

2024-04-03 00:48:17 +0000 UTCStill working on them. Ended up with two last week instead of the three I wanted. I just post them as I finish them. Going to try for three this week again, but we’ll see.

2024-04-03 00:19:48 +0000 UTCYeah! I usually go but wasn't able to make it this year. I'm just an hour away as well! Hope to see you next year!

2024-04-02 23:02:22 +0000 UTCI'll try to go again next year. It's pretty close to me (about an hour drive). I'm about to apply for Rose Con down in Portland too, which is Sept 6-8.

2024-04-02 22:14:48 +0000 UTCGah! I didn't know you were at Norwescon this year! I wasn't able to make it! Dang!

2024-04-02 20:52:27 +0000 UTCI don’t think the application window is open still for that one. Hmm…. Yep. Just checked. Application ended in Jan. I can apply for next year though. I signed up for the newsletter to remind me.
David North
2024-04-02 17:02:38 +0000 UTCJust DM me here and we’ll get it figured out.

2024-04-02 16:53:35 +0000 UTCI’ve been meaning to set up a Shopify, but I haven’t yet. I could use Patreon for it too, but it has higher fees. What I really need is someone to handle the shipping for me. For now, I just put them in a box and take them to UPS myself.

2024-04-02 16:52:06 +0000 UTCSo do you have a website I can go to order it

Zachary Blevins
2024-04-02 16:50:33 +0000 UTCAre you in the US? I can send you one via media mail. Paypal or such for it. If you’re international, I can send you a bookplate instead. It’s a signed sticker to put inside the book, which you can grab from Amazon. Much cheaper shipping from them.
David North
2024-04-02 16:49:55 +0000 UTCI would like a signed copy of the first book. How would I go about getting that?
