It's getting to be that time of year again, time for every Michigander's favorite anime convention.
However, Fishing for Birdies will not be going this year.
This is due to several reasons:
1. New rules. They just made a new rule for this year that AA sellers can no longer sell only hats, which is what we do. Hat sellers have to sign up as a dealer, but we were a little late to that party.
2. The location. They've told us AA was going to be at Cobo, but that's all we've gotten, and that really concerned us.
3. The lack of information. There has been NO communication about this year's AA, and considering Youmacon is only three months away, this is not a good thing. Last year they said they were really behind when sign up was in June. It's August now, and I haven't head a word from them.
4. Gordon and I are both pretty busy with school and making cosplays, so there isn't much time for us to be making hats.
So, we're sorry, but we will not be selling at Youmacon. However, we will still be attending, but only as guests.
We will also be making hats periodically and posting them on our Etsy accounts, which can be found here:
