Anthrocon 2017 - Brief Summary
8 years ago
Hey everyone, I realize that I forgot to make a journal entry saying that I was going to Anthrocon this year, which would have been the first time that I've gone to that convention. Nonetheless, I had a generally relaxing time and met lots of people, so I just wanted to make a quick journal entry thanking everybody who showed up and was really friendly to hang out with. For anybody who wanted to say hello and I didn't meet, my sincere apologies for bad communications on my part, and I'll try to manage my time better at future conventions, also making journal entries like I did for Fur the 'More this year.
Some panels that I went to included:
- Agent Elrond's improvised and fun art sketch panel
- Anthrocon talent show, which was filled with magicians, singers, and other performers
- Mature and general art auctions, actually managing to win something in the latter
- Mustelid meetup (surprisingly, most attendees were otters, with only a few ferrets present)
- Slice-of-life discussion panel (important topic for me regarding future Mello stories)
- Writing basics panel, which I took lots of helpful notes during
Other events included, but are not limited to:
- Browsing a massive marketplace, including meeting a new erotica author (for those interested, I definitely recommend checking out a fun compilation of his called Boys Only sometime) and talking to many talented artists
- Seeing extremely talented art galleries, including buying some emotionally moving artwork
- Somehow winning third place in a poker tournament that lasted for more than five hours
- Talking to many friendly furries, both familiar and new; y'all are extremely lovely people
- Walking around the seriously inviting and pretty-looking Pittsburgh
Feel free to also check out my social media accounts to see some pictures, as well as to find out about some specific fursuiters who I met. Anyway, I don't have much else to say other than I'll try to write more about future conventions that I'm attending, which currently include Fur Affinity: United and Midwest FurFest. Y'all have a lovely week, and keep being really awesome like you already are! ^_^
