I have often wondered what life would be like relying on my writing alone and just how much effort it would be compared to the reward gained. This August had got a little taste of that, having vended at two conventions on two consecutive weekends: DenFur (Denver, CO, August 23rd-25th) and Tails & Tornadoes FurContinue reading “Vending Back-to-Back Weekends Part 1: DenFur”

Plans for September
Apologies for another late posting, but the latter half of August has been a whirlwind of activity, as expected. Between vending at two back-to-back conventions (the subjects of an upcoming blog post or two), staying briefly at a mountain lodge, and all the days of travel in between, there had been little to no timeContinue reading “Plans for September”
Plans for August
July has been a long, fairly quiet month. Unfortunately the first week was a bit hectic, and it never truly recovered, though progress was made throughout, particularly on the Knights of Aralia as hoped. Christmas in July was perhaps the biggest highlight, despite the modest returns (see my recap here). Nevertheless, I applied to vendContinue reading “Plans for August”
Recap: Christmas in July
. This past weekend, July 19th and 20th, I attended the first annual Christmas in July Vendor Fair in Grandview, MO. And as usual when I make an appearance somewhere, it’s nice to take a moment to reflect on lessons learned which can be applied to future endeavors.
Reminder: Christmas in July This Weekend!
Just a quick reminder to everybody that I’ll be at the first annual Christmas in July vendor fair in Grandview, MO this weekend. All info is on the flyer, including the vendor list (I’m listed under my publisher’s name). Hope to aee some of you there!
Plans for July
June was a busy month, though with what at times I couldn’t say. It started off with my setup Carry Nation Days and ended in a mad dash to prepare things for the upcoming month of July, which was mostly successful. July will be a grand month, I can just feel it. Once again KnightsContinue reading “Plans for July”

This event is free to attend, and offersContinue reading “Christmas in July”
Vending at a Street Fair
This weekend, I attempted my first ever street fair, and I am happy to say it was a surprising success! I confess, I underestimated the literary interest of the audience to which I was selling, which made what was essentially a single-day event (the three hours Friday evening were largely rained out) somewhat profitable. But,Continue reading “Vending at a Street Fair”
Plans for June
May was every bit the full month I had predicted. Not only was progress made on several manuscripts, but I took an actual week’s vacation and attended Belton, Missouri’s first annual Carry A. Nation Days event (where I will still be until 8:00 tonight!). June will probably be a quieter month by comparison, but preparationsContinue reading “Plans for June”
