Back from ConFuzzled, and future plans...
11 years ago
I'm back from ConFuzzled, and now finally all up to date with my e-mails and stuff: so I thought I'd state my opinions of the convention here!
As ever, ConFuzzled was fantastic. The new venue is excellent, and I actually managed to find it without getting lost en route (which makes a change!). And it goes without saying that it was a whole lot of fun, too. I may have spent most of my time behind my table in the dealers' den, but the events I did attend - including the PawPet show and the live auction - were as great as ever. Plus it was good to meet everybody - be they new friends or old - at the convention, too!
But much as I'd love to come back next year, I currently cannot be certain of it...
Don't get me wrong - the problems I have are nothing to do with either the convention, or the venue. (Quite the opposite, in fact - it's precisely because of them that I want to return in 2015!) But although I don't want to go into details, there is a very real possibility that I've visited my last ConFuzzled - and that EF20 in August will be my last ever convention.
That last part isn't easy to admit - I've been attending conventions in the USA, UK and Germany since 2002 - but I really don't think I'm going to have any choice in the matter.
Not that I have any intention of giving up my artwork or writing, though. I'll still be producing those (although I have been a little quiet on those fronts the past few weeks). I've also got a few new things in the pipeline that I'll mention shortly. So you will still get to see plenty of new work from me!
Just not at conventions, as things are going at the moment...

I'm enjoying reading RedSilver too so far :) Up to chapter 8!
And I'm looking forward to seeing you at EF, too!
I'm glad you're enjoying reading RedSilver, too!
