I just got back from Expozine this weekend and it was pretty special. The first day I was all like 'no one likes my stuff' and then the second day I was like 'everyone likes my stuff!' So I sold some zines and prints and generally had a nice time.
Zine fairs are simultaneously ego boosting and intimidating. The level of people's work is all over the place. This zine fair I learned that getting a little tipsy helps, standing up is nice and more people will talk to you, I should probably look into getting some sort of stand for my zines and a business card would be a very good idea.
But....
... guess what? I'm in another zine fair this weekend. That's right, you can catch me selling prints and little books at XPACE from 12 to 5 pm. The final event (I think?) at Xpace's Ossington st. location before they haul over to Dundas and Landsdown. Bye bye Ossington, who needs you and your overpriced restaurants.
Come!
