Fantasycon 2006

Fantasycon was held at the Britannia hotel in Nottingham between 22nd-24th September 2006.

I had been meaning to attend a Fantasycon for many years, but for one reason or another I never got around to it. This time however I was determined to make the effort and I am very glad that I did! Although there was no artshow I still enjoyed the event and met lots of new people. Plus it helped get more exposure for Screaming Dreams and the eZine.
