The difficulty with registering for conventions is that not all conventions provide you instant feedback, especially when you have to be juried in. We are waiting,
patiently, for word back from Comic-Con San Diego about our acceptance as a small press. We, however, need to reserve rooms and get plane flights... so at times, this means chewing on nails and trying to stay calm.
Ah well, the joys of being "independent" in the business world.
