2015 Convention Summary

January 26, 2016July 10, 2020 · Business, Events

I said at the end of 2014 that I wasn’t going to be writing any more in-depth convention reports because they just take too much time, but I had fully intended to continue writing short summaries or something about events and shows. But I ended up doing 22 events in 2015 and apparently didn’t have the time or energy for even that.

Con Report: Jet City Comic Show 2014

December 9, 2014April 8, 2020 · Events

The con season for me ended this year with Jet City Comic Show, November 8th in Tacoma, WA, and while the show has always been a slow one for me, it was still a quieter end to the season than I’d have liked. Oh well!

Con Report: Bellingham Comicon 2014

October 22, 2014April 8, 2020 · Events

Right on the heels of Geek Girl Con was Bellingham Comicon on October 18th, a small, one-day affair up near Bellingham, WA, though more accurately, it took place at the Ferndale Events Center in Ferndale, WA.

Con Report: Geek Girl Con 2014

October 18, 2014April 8, 2020 · Events

Coming up on my thirteenth convention of the year, and especially after a very busy August and September, con fatigue has been setting in hardcore.

Thankfully, Geek Girl Con — a two-day show, October 11-12, in downtown Seattle — was small and local: something low-stress and low-key after a flurry of busy or out-of-town shows.

Con Report: Rainfurrest 2014

October 11, 2014April 8, 2020 · Events

Three days after Rose City Comic Con was Rainfurrest, the furry convention in Seattle, or more accurately, in Seatac, at the Seatac Airport Hilton and Conference Center.

Con Report: Rose City Comic Con 2014

October 10, 2014April 8, 2020 · Events

Rose City Comic Con is a two-day comic convention in Portland, and this year it ran September 20th and 21st. RCCC is partnered with and shares a lot of staff and resources with Emerald City Comic Con, so I figured they’re similarly run and attract a similar crowd.

Con Report: Kumoricon 2014

October 9, 2014April 8, 2020 · Events

Kumoricon, held annually over Labour Day Weekend, is an anime convention in Vancouver, Washington. Kumoricon has a small, juried Artist Alley, and they’ve declined to accept me every year I’ve applied… until this year.

Con Report: DragonFlight 2014

August 23, 2014April 8, 2020 · Events

So DragonFlight is a small tabletop gaming convention, run by Seattle Metro Gamers, and held annually in Bellevue, WA. This year it was August 8-10, the weekend after KuroNekoCon. I knew it was a risky venture, but it’s more or less local, and I convinced Xib to give it a shot with me, so at least I’d have company.
