Two weeks ago I attended a comic book convention to promote my novel series, Portal Hunters. It seems like an odd place to try and sell books, granted, but someone once recommended that I try and think outside the box in regards to where to search for an audience. Since I am familiar with the comic book market and since science fiction is usual very popular with comic book fans, that seemed like a good place to start.
It was a very education experience. I wrote a blog on it discussing some do's and dont's for anyone who might want to exploring trying this themselves. Given the volume of comic book conventions around the country, for writers of sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and/or adventure, it might be worth your time to consider this strategy.
