Let me introduce you to the most amazing team I have ever met. Dawn and Jay Norry.

Jay Norry

I've been working with the Norry's for more than a year and absolutely adore their resolve. They were a huge force at last year's CyCon. Dawn is as passionate about her husband's writing and marketing his career as Jay is about writing.

Sadly, they are unable to attend the convention this year due to a live convention in LA that coincides with the B2B CyCon.

http://events.latimes.com/festivalofb...

This breaks their hearts as much as it breaks mine.

However, recently, with the brain power of Joe Compton and his 72-hour live feed, they have birthed an idea that will do so much for all of us.

The Norry's have offered to take the B2B CyCon with them to LA and merge it with the LA Convention where they have offered to dedicate a portion of their table to us!

In addition to the "live from LA" that Joe Compton will be hosting, they have also offered to accept "Swag" from all of us! Books, bookmarks, keychains... Whatever!!

Now... there is a catch.

The LA Convention they are attending MAY shut it down. The Wi-Fi is iffy and they may not have a good connection. Although they have checked the rules, they have found nothing preventing this idea.

Still... if they can pull it off on our behalf, it will be epic!

Here are the details!


All 2016 B2B Cy-Con participants are invited to display their small swag items at our LA Times FOB booth. (bookmarks, pens, buttons. Please no books). The cap is at 250 pieces per person. (aka, 250 bookmarks OR 250 pins, etc), so that there is room for everyone on the table. Anyone who is interested in doing so will need to get their items to the Norry's by April 5th. Packages should be sent to...

Email Angela at angelabchrysler@yahoo.com for the physical address.

They will be heading to LA on April 8th, so I'd like to make sure they have everything set for the "Norry Field Project" by the 5th!

Summarize!


Who: Dawn and Jay Norry
What: No more than 250 of any item per person
etc: bookmarks, pens, buttons
When: 5 April 2016
Where:Email Angela at angelabchrysler@yahoo.com for the physical address.

http://events.latimes.com/festivalofb...

The Norry booth will be listed as Sudden Insight Publishing (Booth #153, located in Mid-Trousdale).

Donations!


Without their knowing it, as a thank you, I am setting up a "donation" on behalf of what they are doing. They paid for a table, the trip... it's a lot and, I would love to do what we can to ease their trip.

If you are wishing to donate, http://www.gofundme.com/kvt7ygw4
go here and donate. Donation is NOT required. It is something we are simply offering as an option to help out the Norry's if you so choose. :)

NOTE: There is no goal, but GoFundMe insisted I add a goal so I randomly chose $1,000. This is not a goal. It is a number I entered because I had to enter

I will be shipping out my business cards. I have boxes of them here. I hope to send them out on Monday along with fliers advertising the Brain to Books Convention :)

Quoleena Sbrocca (qjsbrocca) That's super generous! When I saw this, I designed some bookmarks. The company wouldn't let me ship to a PO box, so I'm hoping I get them in time to send your way. T minus 3 weeks.

Quoleena, if you need a different address to ship to, please contact Dawn - dawn@suddeninsightpublishing.com.

Thanks Jay! I'll know if I need to do that once they ship them. They're in production now. I'll email for an address if it looks like it'll be too close. I hope you both have a great time at the convention!

J.K. Norry (jay_norry) C.L. Schneider and Rebecca McCray, your swag has arrived!

Someone sent us something in a regular letter envelope, which was totally destroyed by the Post Office. All that is left is a small section of the envelope that has our PO Box, and a postmark dated March 15th. If this was you, please contact us! And for everyone else, please make sure to package your swag well!

J.K. Norry (jay_norry) We received more great swag today. You guys are sending some really good looking stuff! Just a reminder - you have until April 5th (this Tuesday) to get your items to us.


message 17: by J.K. (new)

J.K. Norry (jay_norry) We're going to do one more run to the post office tomorrow morning, before heading out for our 6 1/2 hour drive to Los Angeles. We've got a nice selection of swag to display at this point, as well as some really wonderful flyers that Angela made up for the CyCon, Hopefully our plan to show the 72 hour B2B live-stream in our booth works out (this is where we all pray for a good WiFi signal at the USC campus). Here's to a successful bookfest/convention weekend for everyone!


message 18: by J.K. (new)

J.K. Norry (jay_norry) Thanks to everyone who sent us swag for the LA Times Festival of Books! Lots of book swag was picked up by festival goers (someone sent stylus pens, which were gone by 11am Sunday), and hopefully some of them stopped by the CyCon during the weekend. We've boxed up all of your leftover swag, and will be taking it with us to our next bookfest - we have the NW Book Festival in Portland, OR, up next in July, although there is still a chance we may make it to the Bay Area Bookfest in June.
