Reflecting on Hypericon 4

A few thoughts looking back at Hypericon 4...
 


Remarks
Conventions and Conferences

This year's Hypericon 4 in Nashville, Tennessee was last week.  In fact, about this time last Thursday, I was hustling to get packed and to hit the road.

I am overall pleased by my Hypericon experiences, our booth (click photo for blow-up view in new window) was well received and garnered a nice number of compliments.  I met a lot of great people, enjoyed the panels on which I sat, and sold a few books, too.  Our teeshirts were popular enough that I have ordered some from a more economical source for future cons.

For a first con as a dealer, I think it went pretty well.  I would have liked to have had another DEP person along to hang out with and to cover the booth when I was on panels or otherwise away.  But, The folks in the  next booth were nice and kept an eye on things for me, so it all worked out just fine.

The booth won't travel lightly, though.  Yes, it is oak.  It breaks down nicely into pieces.  The tables stack into the shelves and the whole thing rolls out on a two-wheeler in two and a half loads.  I can configure it for different sized set-ups from 4 X 2 feet to 10 x 8 feet.  I'm planning on taking the 4 X 2 set-up to some local weekly markets to see what happens...

Anyway, that's enough about that.  As for Hypericon, all in all, a good time!

See you all at the next one!
