I'll be there! Definitely willing to contribute to your article in any way I can. I'll try to take plenty of pics. This is only my second year going so it will be interesting to compare the two.

Anyone attending this con should check out the artist Ben Byrd! He does some adorable takes on fantasy/Sci fi characters. You can see his work on facebook (Ben Byrd Art) or etsy (shop name BenByrdArtwork). His etsy shop is on vacation while he does cons but I think you can still see some of the art if you go to the review section.
