So, what do YOU guys want to hear?

Hi, everybody! As I mentioned once before in this forum, I'm Arisia's artist guest for 2008. In a rare & beautiful example of early planning, I was asked by the con-chairs in which panels I'd like to take part.

I thought it'd be much better to ask what YOU folks want to know. As I told the Powers That Be, I can talk about marketing your work, juicing the Muse (on which I hope to panel at Dragon Con), making a living as a creative, working for yourself in general, being an artist in the middle of a disaster zone, Formosan termites and why cork floors don't work in New Orleans...but maybe there's something I might be able to share that I don't know that I know. You know? ;)

If you pop over to my LJ profile or my website, it'll give you an idea on my background. Thanks in advance for your insights, and I'll see you in January!

Hey, polkas are actually a pretty hot dance, done at speed. :) (though I suppose you're breathing hard enough it's pretty hard to do much more)

Re "your grandmother's convention" -- I'd say Arisia is substantially less family-oriented (/limited) than Lunacon, Philcon, or your average Worldcon.
