But I might get the feel by the number of visitors. Thanks for the support. I'm definitely experimenting!<br />Patricia Keelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18085133541342215421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866958441423195652.post-75962740631473467962017-05-26T07:26:20.357-04:002017-05-26T07:26:20.357-04:00It is a tough gig.

Hope you make your investment back in Lizzie and Lou Seal Orders and it's a good experience. On the other hand if you think about it, I'm attending an SCBWI conference for roughly the same amount of $$$ and time this year and previously I've paid that out advertising in Illustration Annuals. I think investing monies into your own self-promo or craft is worth it. Unfortunately you never know what works best for you or your book until you experiment. At any rate kudos for experimenting.Dihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04642951167114603547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866958441423195652.post-10552350283499674262017-05-24T11:09:43.972-04:002017-05-24T11:09:43.972-04:00Wha!

If they charge the hoi poloi $1,000 for that ridiculously small spot, and you have to promote yourself, please walk off it during this event! If I get crazy and spend the money to attend, it would be for 1 day...I can't take the Javitz Ctr. What fascinates me is you found a seal to match your character...or did you use him as a model? To make yourself more noticeable, can you have a pole with a flag/ banner from Vistaprint with your name on it? Custom- make a 10' flagpole!
