These are the best of the few photos I have from Thief!Con 2018 proceedings!
It was so hard to try and keep a straight face with both @meganwhalenturner and @actualshonenprotagonist smiling! And @bookishbabe10 behind the camera kept making me laugh! These are legit my favorite pictures ever though!
Huge thanks are due to @meganwhalenturner for being so generous with her time and participating in all our crazy shenanigans! Best day ever!
Thanks and hugs and earrings galore are due to @bookishbabe10 for helping me with planning, and then also taking care of travelers and then somehow managing to also feed everybody? A literal saint!
Shout-outs must go to @ewokshootsfirst and @smalliinsaneone for being virtual participants, but more importantly for keeping me sane over the past several weeks as I freaked out about details and bounced around ideas! Couldn’t have pulled this off without your support!
Time for me to thank all the attendees who made this a success! @actualshonenprotagonist‘s cosplay is the most stunning thing and even more beautiful in person if you can believe that and was very patient with me and all my fan-girling! @indigo-night-wisp attended 20Theives TWO YEARS AGO and then made the long trek up to Cleveland to brave my insanity yet again and I can’t even put into words how much I love her! @pastel-cartoon-loser it was like seeing family, and if I linger on this sentence any longer I’m going to start crying on my keyboard because finally getting to meet you in person was better than anything I could have imagined! @attoliasirenides my sister, my dear new sister, it feels like every conversation we had needed to be at least 3 hours longer, AT LEAST! @mygoldenwolf drove for SIXTEEN HOURS and was one of the brightest smiles in the room and such a joy to talk to and I’m still not over it! @worldsentwined braved weather and construction and traffic to make it to us and was so sweet and such a fountain of bookish knowledge, I was literally in awe! @florianschild I was shook to be in the presence of an OG who helped build this community, and add that to the fact you were so kind and lovely to everyone, I literally don’t have words, I’m speechless!
Thank you all!
I’m sure I’ll think of many other people in the coming days that I need to thank, so bear with me as I shout about all my favorite people! For now though I’ve got to bounce because there is school and life calling my name and I can’t ignore it any longer.
Be blessed in your endeavors!
