Hi all. First off I'd like to say that I was hoping to be more involved in the forum before I started badgering you for help, but real life has intervened and I don't have very much time so I'm just diving right in.
A friend and I are trying to start up a Pagan convention in South Wales. It'll be a two day event and will have a wide variety of different workshops and other fun stuff... Hopefully.
What I'd like to know is, anyone who has been to something like this before, what do you remember the most about it? Is there anything in particular you think we absolutely need - be it content or just attitude? Any pitfalls we should avoid at all costs?
Also, anyone who has appeared as a speaker/workshop runner; what is the average price/contract/etc needed? What is the most important thing you feel you need to have a successful weekend? Does there need to be a process of contacting through representation, or would a quick inquiry email suffice?
We're literally starting from 0 here and getting help from other organisers is a nightmare and a half. I'd really appreciate any little tidbits of advice, or even just some good juju sent our way
Thanks for reading x
P.S. Just to be on the safe side I checked with TPTB and this post was approved as non-advert-spammy-annoying.
