So is anyone going to Dragon*Con this year?
It’s the largest fantasy / sci-fi convention on the East Coast. They estimate over 30,000 people will attend. It’s a lot of fun! I know that there will be a dealer selling a huge selection of Windstones at this convention. He had a ton last year, more than any storefront I’ve been to.
I’ll be there along with my mysterious guest, Vantid! Vantid will be free as a werebanana to come an go as she pleases, but I’ll be ‘chained’ to a table, both showing and selling my work in the Art Show.
I’d be happy to meet anyone that wants to stop by! I can’t promise I won’t be busy but don’t let that deter you from at least saying hello. 🙂

The first one was in 1987, so you just missed one while in the area. It was pretty dinky compared to what it is now. (I haven’t been there, but I checked the history.)

Dragon*Con started in 1987, so yes, and it’s a huge huge event! It nearly shuts down downtown Atlanta and in face the parade shuts down traffic each year. I live near Roswell so I know where you were at.
I may have some Windstones there myself, and possibly some cards (like the Poad™ cards), John and I are still discussing this possibility.

Yes, Dragon*Con only happens once every year, and always in the same place (Atlanta) 🙂
It’s a lot of fun.Volunteer mod- I'm here to help! Email me for the best response: nambroth at gmail.com
My art: featherdust.comJuly 13, 2007 at 3:11 am #598867I’d love too, but I’ll be going to Anime Weekend Atlanta later that month. :/ And I’m looking forward to that with my friend, Celesse.
Maybe next year!

July 13, 2007 at 5:14 pm #598871The one time I got to go to Dragon*Con (1998) was the one year they didn’t get to have it their “normal” Labor Day weekend, but in July instead. I had a blast and have always wanted to go back, just never could afford to. Also at that time you could buy a 1-, 2-, 3- or 4-day membership online rather than just the 4-day online and the others at the door. I still have my tie-dyed/air-brushed t-shirt but boy is it looking ragged.
