Emerald City Comicon is going to be another lesson in making it work with what I have. It’s something I’m getting better at accepting, but I still think about what it could have been if I’d been able to do all I had planned. I designed a new display setup more ideal for my Artist Alley table (D-13!), but did not have the time to buy it and build it. I had the beginnings of three new fandom jewelry lines in the works, but they are still stuck on the drawing table. I won’t even have some of my best sellers out because the supplies to make them won’t arrive in time. All I can do is do my best of what I can. That’s what I have to keep telling myself. It’s the only way I can try to let what could have been go and accept what is. That, and trying again next year. As Tim Gunn wisely says, “Make it work.”
