A non-convention

As some of you know, I didn't get in to Ohayocon. I had gone previous years, but this year, they did this kind of "selection process and application" thing, and I didn't get in. Apparently, they only wanted to pick those who had the most professionalism, and showed the most potential. Their words, folks.
And that's not me.
Well, this was the convention that usually pays for February's bills. During the first couple months of the year, they cut back everyone's hours at work, and I'm often left with paychecks that are around $150 shorter than any other given time of the year. I need this supplemental income, and it's just not coming from freelance illustration right now. *sigh*
SO... what I'm going to do:
I have Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday off. Today after work, I am going to Target to buy a bunch of envelopes.
I will produce art, and make a post with various things for sale, and then it will be a kind of first-come-first-serve thing. I'll put it up in a post, and when someone comments, I'll put in in an envelope with their name and address on it, and it will go out on Tuesday. Just like that.
A lot of this stuff will be non-fandom, and my own characters. So, be warned about that. But of course, there will be some Harry Potter stuff in there, too. I have STACKS of fanart that need to just go.
I hope I can get some takers. If you have any friends who might be interested, please let them know about it, too. I'll be doing this on IJ only, but if someone from LJ sees it, they can post an anonymous comment and email me just like anyone else.
Thanks!
