Context 25 was a blast. I had a spectacular time in the Dealer's Room with some of the friendliest, most helpful people I have met in a long bit. I received some stellar advice and while it was a slow day on the book sales front, it was more beneficial than I ever imagined.
I have been quite fortunate to find some amazing author groups online (shout out to my Froggies!) and some incredibly talented artists who critique/support/advise me on all aspects of my writing. I don't think everybody is quite as lucky. To them I say - keep looking and hit up some book conventions! Had I known book conventions could be so helpful I absolutely would have worked my way into one much sooner! I met some fantabulous people who are just as eager about books and writing as I am, just as involved in spreading the written word - dare I say - kindred spirits? Yes, I believe I dare.
A special shout out to the the lovely ladies from Ohioana who sat beside me the entire day and to the fabulously talented people from Hydra who took me under their wing and helped me through my very first convention!
