Surprise Money! AniZona Con Will Bring Me More Joy Than I Thought  

Oh, I intend to! I wasn't able to get to the doujinshi table early last year, but I intend to this year! Assuming I don't get distracted and spend the entire con drooling over Wendee Lee....

I am still a bit confused? It says now my March 15 payouts will be. When is the cut off date? I didn't expect to have made as much already however I understand how and why things here are important to do to get it all right;-)

Thank you! I'm a bit of a forum rat anyway, and if I get some money for it, awesome! I love having some extra money for fun stuff. Good luck with your earnings!

I'm mainly looking for action figures and doujinshi - fan made manga. I collect action figures, and I just love doujinshi. And I only own one.

I got it! I got it! And it's five bucks more than before! Damb I'm happy!

How come I never got so excited over a real paycheck -- I guess because this is so much fun and I never really expect things to work out right anymore, lol.

Happy dance! Happy dance! Same here - I got an extra ten dollars after yesterday's recalculating! More money sooner than later is always, always welcome! *throws confetti*

Aw, you must find one in your area! Or you could see about gathering up fellow fans and starting one yourself!

Thank you! I've got ten bucks so far!

Oh, that's too bad! What state are you in - assuming you're in America - I can look and see what's in your area! Cons are everywhere.

I'm in Michigan, but I'm in the Upper Peninsula. Which means even to get anywhere downstate it's several hours of driving. And I don't have a car, so I'd have to get someone else to take me.

This spring I have hopes of finally learning to drive. Why I haven't done so already (seeing as I'm 26) is kind of a long story, but it involves both not having a chance to do so and losing a boyfriend in a car accident right when I started trying to learn the first time.

If you do find something in my area though, let me know and I'll try to find a way to arrange it. I would so love to have a chance to go to a con! I've heard so much from friends who've been to them that I've spent hours imagining!

http://www.jafax.org/ - JAFAX (Japanese Animation Film and Art eXpo) - This con has no admission fee, But is the biggest anime con in Michigan - held at Grand Valley State University in Allendale, MI.

http://www.youmacon.com/ - Youma Con, in Detroit. Otaku invade the Motor City once more when Metro Detroit's first anime con, Youmacon, brings celebrity guests, dealers of Japanese collectibles, masquerade and cosplay contests, and many other exciting con events back for its second year. Dub fans meet voice actors, gamers compete in tournaments in our 24-hour video gaming rooms and cosplayers have the chance to be a game of shougi. There's something for every Japanese media fan at this fan-run con that's easily accessible for Michiganders as well as con-goers from Windsor or Toledo. Commence anticipation.

Both about ten hours away, but they sound interesting. And for Detroit I might even be able to get a flight straight from here. I'll have to think about that one.

Thanks for the information!

Aw, thank you! I do my best! I am dedicated to increasing the quality content of the Mylot community! Preperations are taking me away from the site, though, so we'll see!

Dude, if you're serious and you would like to send a few bucks my way, I've got a donation button up on my blog: http://grumpygimp.blogspot.com/ . And I would love you forever and write you stuff.

I will list an update of all my con spoils! :D I'm sure you will be! My fingers are crossed for you as well! :D

congrats on ur money....
