My First Con as a sci-fi author selling books at a convention No, I'm not a con artist as the title may imply. Last weekend, I attended my first con, as in convention, as a vendor. I had no idea what to expect going into it and I have nothing else to compare it ...

Check out my latest blog post recapping my first experience as a vendor at #islandfancon
