I really enjoy my cons but the days that I went to one purely for the enjoyment factor are long over. I go to them to work - I get on panels, I do the readings and the signings, all that. It's a good thing that I enjoy the work as well as the play.
Agreed. People keep telling me, "oh, just come, it will be fun!" I too enjoy what I do at and for conventions, but I can't afford mere fun. It's work, and work that has to pay off before I can breathe easy, relax, and have fun.
