Definitely a good Con. No, to my knowledge didn't sell anything yet. On the other hand, the panel went well. And Dryad Dreams took Third Place in the Black & White division in the Art Show.
Anecdotally (my observations between years) I think sales were down this year. I'm coupling that with a brief conversation with Art Show Director when I checked out. Did notice a number of 'Sold' markers on pieces Saturday just before closing the Art Room, and some 'holes' in displays on Sunday walking through.
There were, IIRC, three other photographers entered this year. None of them sold anything. In previous years, I've not sold anything. I am quite sure, because of which print sold in the Print Shop, that the reason I sold anything this year is that 3rd Place. Someone who collects the Place Winners from the Necronomicon Art Show purchased a 5x7 of Dryad Dreams.
On the other hand, did make that sale, did receive the Place, and now there are some leads for additional sales/output of my work. Also, got to meet you face-to-face. Yes, a good Con. *G*
