Bent-Con Recap Part One

P1040877So this past weekend, Burbank hosted Bent-Con, a GLBT / gender spectrum media convention. Quite a few types of media were there from television to comics to book publishers.

Lots of panels, a dealers’ room and art gallery as well as just a gathering of like minded people. Dreamspinner Press optioned up a table and since I am fairly local, I thought I’d go support and well to be supported.

Now mind you, I just came off of GRL and a pretty nasty respiratory thing but damn it! I was gonna go.

Because dudes, my peeps!

This probably will be a two parter. First, about BC and everything we did and then secondly, the people I met and want to share with you all about what they’re doing and how they are changing the world.

The GORGEOUS Tiff. Who nommed the HELL out of that chigae.

I went up a day early because I have minions up that way. Tiff and Ren to be exact. Spent the day with Tiff whom I love and adore. We had Korean food, took pictures and had coffee. I then headed to Santa Monica to sleep over at Ren’s and well, eat a shit ton of pizza. I had to roll to my car the next morning.

Burbank isn’t far from Santa Monica as far as the crow flies but oh, Los Angeles traffic is its own beast. Still, I got up there in time to grab Lou Sylvre from the local airport and into Bent Con we went. First off, the Burbank Airport Marriott rocks. Seriously. Rocking.

#Husbands thereof….

I’ve always had a love for this show and these peeps. They are fantastically talented and gorgeous. If you haven’t seen this series, PLEASE do yourself a favour and go watch it online. Brilliant, tight writing and great comedy with a touch of heartstrings.

Husbands is now on CWseed but can be found in its entirety at: http://husbandstheseries.com/watch/

Dirt and Sin Merchandise

The white shirts are the “value” shirt. These suckers run large. Trust me on this. I wanted them a little roomy so I could just kind of kick around in them but damn. They’re huge.

The colours are great. The messenger bag fits my Toshiba 17″ laptop. Very sturdy and quite nice. The DK logo could be a bit bigger on the white shirt but I think that’s cause it’s so damned wide. 😀
