Over the Easter weekend I held a card stall at a gaming convention, an alternative to running a game as I had been unwell and didn’t have time to write it. I didn’t do my usual range of cards, instead focusing on a range that reflected the themes of the games – fantasy, horror, historical, alternate history etc. I also did a selection of children’s cards as there is a day where younger players are the focus.
I was surprised by what did sell – dragons and wizards, and Egyptian themed things – and by what didn’t (children’s cards and anything steampunk). I might do it again in the future, but not for all four days of the weekend. Still it was an interesting experience – and if you are interested in anything here let me know, I probably have some left…
