Balticon, like many of the East Coast cons, is a goodly-sized convention that used to be even bigger. (Philcon, *my* area regional, used to be a whole bunch bigger--back in the early 1990s it came close to 4,000 people. Then PSFS won the right to hold the 2001 Worldcon, people got burned out, bad decision were made...but I shouldn't get started on alla that...)

I'm glad you had fun--*and* that you sold out of books! Thanks again for the artwork--and we look forward to reading books 2 and 3 (and buying the rest, over time.)

And yes, I know what you mean by being "handled". My mind isn't quite *that* dirty. :-)
