Dealer and Artist Registration Now Open!
Sorry for the late post. I have been under the weather so I didn’t get to it yesterday and so here it is today.
Dealer and Artist Registration for Anime St. George 2012 is now open!
Last year we sold out our dealer//artist spaces before July which was a new record! We even had people fighting and begging for what little space we could possibly offer them and because of this, we even put a few people out in the lobby. This year is expected to be just as busy so we are going to bring back our Lobby Booths because of popular demand!
If you are interested in registering for a Dealer or Artist booth for Anime SG 2012, then get them while you can!

A 10′x10′ Booth will include 1 Table, 2 Chairs and Table Covering.

Blog States for 2011!
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The concert hall at the Syndey Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 14,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 5 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
