as someone whos just starting out doing artist alleys, its very informative to see the experiences of other artists, especially any mistakes they make! Im from the east coast so I'd also have to fly if I ever want to do cons on the west coast, so i found that very relatable!
Mistakes are part of the game. Keep going! Glad you got to come to Portland! It was a fun con. I was also in Artist Alley. Day 3, indeed, gotta get there early. I was on my skateboard zooming around before everyone arrived. Safe travels!
OMG that was a rollercoaster of a trip for you. So sad you didn't profit much from it, but at least you got to visit Oregon. I hope your next convention goes smoothly.
Even though you made a lot of mistakes I'm sure that other artists who may also be going cross-country for the first time like yourself may find this video useful to not make the same mistakes you did. Cheers to you for looking on the bright side of things! :)
The uber drive back was a comically bad cherry on top, but you did your best and learn a lot. Thank you for sharing this experience! Not everything is always perfect, and that's life. Next time will be better, and I can't wait to see it! ♥
I know this wasn’t the greatest event for you but if it helps make things a little better, I LOVE the snoopy sticker I bought from you! It made me so happy to see so much snoopy stuff at RCCC this year!

You should do Kumoricon next year, it's usually in November, it is better and more anime. I think it would be a better audience for your items.
Anime Los Angeles is a great con and artist alley registration goes live tomorrow morning!!!
If you are looking to come to California, I would suggest wonder con or Los Angeles Comic con.
Maybe not a comic con anytime soon but definitely trying for Anime Expo!
YAY!
yippieeee
