I've added a photo of my outfit from the saturday finally.
Also, the book that was launched a while back which I journaled about has been added to Amazon if you would like to buy your own copy. All profits go to charity! Here is the link: www.amazon.co.uk/Tabitha-Apple…

Man, this weekend was a rough ride, but oh so fun at the same time. If not for the pitiful amount of sleep and stomach bug which made me want to vom every time I ate something, it would have been the most fun convention I've had in a long time.
I got to stay in a nearby hotel with my fellow university slave Julia Shaw as well as

and two awesome people I didn't know well;

and Negs' friend, Alex (who is from way over the pond in Canada)

Shits and giggles were had.
Interesting moments include:
- Needing sugar for our cups of tea and desperately asking a random girl in her Pyjamas in the hallway if she had any, to which she then ventured away and brought back multitudes of sugar goodness. We never saw her again

(Caroline, sweet Caroline, you saved us that evening!)
- Feeling grossly ill and horribly under-slept which led to what myself and Julia now refer to as 'The Birmingham' whereby you create a nest beneath your table from whatever soft things you can find in your suitcase and promptly fall asleep like some kind of Expo hobo.
- Attempting to escape the Excel centre at the end of the day and bumping in to a lost drunk boy who proceeded to tell us about the hardships of asexuality and accidentally groping people. Also somehow mishearing 'Nikki' and 'Julia' as 'Gabriel' and 'Amy'. Close enough

All in all, a decent and funny weekend.

My outfit on saturday!

I ended up selling out of some prints. I've decided to start printing new work which I will be creating this summer. That means that about 20 of my prints and products are now dastardly low in price in my shop and just waiting to be snapped up so if you would like to grab a multitude of shiny things, now is the time! I've lowered 7x5 and 6x4 prints from $2.00 to $1.00, 12x8 and 10x8 prints from $7.00 to $3.00 and both art books from $10.00 to $7.50 (also, you now get a free print of your choosing with every purchase of a book!)
I hope you find this satisfactory
