zaknfang Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 its a bit unnerving for a first time but come chat to people in costume as compliments on their costume is always a great ice breaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wnet to my first 3 day convention, and signing event on my own, and I'm really glad I did as my fiance is a person I met through my love of conventions and signing evnets.. We are all (well most of us) a great bunch of people. Im not sure what I will be wearing yet, but I will try to remember to post on here what it is so hopefully if you see me you can come and say hi, as I don't bite, and love meeting new people.

If you see me, feel free to stop me and say hi (it happens all the time lol I wont think you're weird). I'm a short brunette, I'll be wearing a blue and white striped dress with a red headband.
