Jordan Con 2019

Headed to Jordan Con 2019

I’m happy to say I’m headed off for Jordan Con this month. For those who don’t know, Jordan Con is a fantasy and science fiction literature convention named after Robert Jordan, the late writer of the Wheel of Time series. While it’s named after the author and his flagship series, it’s actually about the genre in general, which is how sci-fi has sneaked in there.  Fans of one are quite often fans of the other –like me.

Jordan Con Activities

The 2019 Jordan Con is happening in Atlanta, Georgia, April 26-28. If this is the kind of convention you enjoy, please attend! You can view the featured guests here and the guests of honor here. Plenty of Wheel of Time fans make this their event of the year. It’s also a favorite for people who just love the genre. There will be author panels, visual media artists, and immersive guest events.

Making the Most of the Convention

I hope to attend as many of the planned activities as possible, but I will be spending most of my time at Jordan Con’s Authors Alley where I will have a table with my books. This will be my second book show since finishing my first series. While the first book show was good, it was a general audience rather than a targeted one. I am anticipating the convention not just to sell books. Yes, it’s lots of fun to sell them and is rewarding. However, I also look forward to connecting with other authors in my genre and meeting the attendees who enjoy the same books that I do. I’m expecting it to be a good time.
