camera zenscura

Spent seven hours as a zine vendor today at a public zine and printed matter festival in Durham, NC. I also was selling postcards with my photographic images on them. The postcards were popular at 2.00, three for 5.00. Sold a few zines, bringing in enough money to fund the next zine run. I think my prices were appropriate for the work, and did not effect the number of sales.

It was fun talking with people, explaining my work and process, and I received a great deal of positive reaction to my photography, even though a great deal of it came from people who purchased nothing. It was an encouraging experience all around to keep doing what I am doing. It was helpful to me that my wife, Kitty, was there with me the whole time, lending moral support.

It was an overall positive experience and I would do it again. I still have zines for sale, and readers are welcome to contact me if interested. Thanks all.

Cheers!
