My brother, Nathan Rees, co-owner of SQUISHY ANIMATION (logo on right) created an awesome animated DRAGON for the Fantasy Con site, and with my other brother, Kit Rees, the other half of Squishy Animation, they did most ALL of the graphics on the web site. Nathan and Kit are huge participators in the entire event, and good friends with the creator/organizer, Josh Patel.
I'm excited to be at Fantasy Con as a vendor selling my medieval romantic adventure fiction, SHADOWS OF VALOR.
My mom's awesome sewing skills and patience turned two bed sheets into a 1300s-style kirtle and surcoat for me to wear at Fantasy-Con. The outfit goes with the SHADOWS OF VALOR time period.
