I like that I make a living off selling art, but I also feel really gross and capitalist, so next event, I’m going to have special items that you can only acquire by trading with me.

Things I will trade for:
1. A cool rock.
2. A story about your favourite roadside statue.
I don’t know what they’ll be, probably super limited edition stickers and zines and mystery bags that I’m going to wrap up in brown paper tied up with string.

Some other things I would like:

- a character sheet or dnd map you made before the age of 18

- bones.

- nice sticks.
My next convention is SDCC, and if I gotta stand for five days selling and smiling, it is best if I sometimes got to pretend I am a travelling gnome merchant with a penchant for vintage bottle caps and nice rocks.
I actually do have a favourite stick. You can’t just pick up a stick from outside and hand it to me. I am a stick connoisseur.

I got really into this idea and now I’m making custom stickers to wrap all my trade merch(I’ll use them for regular merch too) in! I’m gonna do it mystery package style, like a very frustrating NPC shopkeeper who’ll only give you a few keywords regarding what you’re getting.
I’ve decided that I’m going to do all of these convention/event trades as an NPC - a tiny space gnome who runs a little space mercantile shop and takes up part time salvage work and is a bit of a hoarder.

Here’s a preview of stuff I might make for trades only!
