*** ConCarolinas a huge success*** |
|
I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone (both
attendees and organizers alike) for such a great
event this weekend in Charlotte North Carolina. We
met so many nice people, including some fans who
stopped by to say how much they enjoyed the books.
We'll definitely be back next year. This was a
fabulous con which broke all previous sales records
for Michael's books. If you are looking for a great
con for the future checkout:
