No FC for me. Maybe FurSquared? Other cons?
11 years ago
I've probably mentioned it before, but it's worth putting out there again. 
and I won't be making FC this coming year. Between my medical bills and recovery time needed, it's just not feasible for us to do the convention this year. We can't swing the expense, and I won't be able to lift and carry stuff like I normally do, so we're sitting this one out. Makes me a little sad, because I love FC and I won't get to see those west coast folks who don't get out to this part of the country... but I still have holes in my lower abdomen, so that ain't happening' right now. c.c;
That being said, I'm interested in maybe branching out and doing a few more conventions this coming year than I normally do. I've had a couple folks ask me about FurSquared, which is a reasonable drive for me and held in February, so I should theoretically be healed enough to haul my stuff. Then the question becomes Artist Alley or Dealers' table, assuming they still have space. I dunno if they do or not. I only do conventions to work or staff these days, so it has to be economically feasible for me. If I can at least break even on costs, it might be worth my time. =) Not sure if the husband would want to come along or not. I like having him with me, but it's less work to haul just myself to the convention. Anyway, thinking about that.
blaez is also prodding me to go to BLFC in May. =P I dunno, but I'm gonna do some cost analysis to break it down and see if that might be a thing I could do.

Gotta do the responsible thing and take a pass on next year. But I may try for another con elsewhere though.
Offhand, other larger cons between now and AC would include FWA and Furry Fiesta. Smaller ones in the region (besides FurSquared) would include Morphicon, Motor City Fur Con (FCN's successor), Gateway FurMeet, and Great Lakes Fur Con.
