I hate discord too. It’s a mess.

omg that expression 😆

I get a little confused when I’m not sure what the scam is. I know they want me to reach out on discord but I have no idea what they would get out of it.

Just backed! Good luck!

That's good! That was a big concern of mine!

I want Bowser as a tiny pet turtle, so cute! Now I see why everyone is posting Rosalina fan art today.

Mario’s voice is still so wrong though 😆

Oh, comic ad network is great. I think they’ve been around for a few years now.

Thank you, Birdie, I appreciate that ❤️

My daughter spotted him trying to go inside a church! She has eagle eyes 🦅

I went back in, she found him, we took him outside.

I feel like if it was a good experience for you, that’s totally okay to keep that happy feeling. A convention is more than just its staff; the attendees, vendors, and artists all make up a part of that scene.

I’m just mad at one very specific person, but he’s a big one, haha.

Thank you!! I hope my backers love it!

So, when we see each other next time I’ll give you the lowdown. It’s crazy what I have heard. I just don’t want to make it super public what I know about because I am not 100% sure of anything outside my personal experience with them (which was awful).

Yeah, the stories I have heard are wild. I was actually warned not to work with them but I really wanted to be involved with cons from my home state. 😞 I should have listened 😭

I’m furious 😤 Was talking to these guys just about a week ago and they accepted my art without mentioning that oops the con might not even happen. No con = no compensation for me, since I was getting a free table to sell my books at.

Other than that, I really don’t know about the longevity of some of these other anime cons in OK. But it might be better to just have a few trustworthy cons instead of a bunch competing with each other for attendees 😅

@tokyook.bsky.social is the official anime-centered winner now, for sure.

Tokyo in Tulsa rebranded but they are still kicking! I’ll be there next year and I’m super excited cuz it’s been a couple of years since I was able to go.

@soonercon.com is not technically an anime con but a lot of attendees are clearly anime fans heh. Really friendly atmosphere 💖

I’m so excited to get this to backers finally!! Turned out better than I was expecting.
