I like the Derby City Comic Con, but my time there was not great. I really enjoyed the ride to and fro, and it was great seeing Ryan, Scott, Sean and Steph. I’m grateful I had a table, but this had the flip side of working against me. Either people would come up and look at me like “Who the hell are you and why are you in Tony Moore’s seat?”, or if they did go by the list they would not notice I was a table behind the table I was supposed to be at. So several people who told me they would come see me did not. I agree that sitting next to the table would have been better, but that wasn’t an option at the time. I did do well (financially), but I could have done better. I didn’t sell a single collection of Tim Reisen and the Chronologists. My Doctor Who print did well, and my UVN friend Michael bought the Back to the Future print in the auction. I did not bring my table cloth–which I removed the day prior–because I didn’t need one, and this caused my table to look more amateurish than a freshman’s first day in high school. As for two days next year: not sure. What is the real cost? Financial vs emotional.

Bruce: Thanks for the great ride and letting me spot “tall grass”.
Mike: Thank you for watching my table because of all my bathroom breaks.
Ryan: You had an amazing table.
Scott: I loved the Tim drawing. I’m still trying to color it.
Sean and Steph: Always a pleasure seeing you two.

Next up: Looking forward to the fantastically awesome Cincy Expo. Where less “Moore” makes it “more” better.
