I may have to eat crow....but in a good way. Tasty, well-seasoned crow.
Most people in my store ever. Sales at 1/3rd above average Saturday, just 2 hours into the day.
Happy people.
Old, familiar faces.
Excited kids.
I was 3 comics per customer until 1:00, and have decided to go down to 2 comics per customer from here out. Years past, I might have had maybe 30 - 50 people for the whole day, and I think we were getting that many per half hour. Very cool.
Nothing like being in the Sunday entertainment section in the Bulletin! Thanks, Dave!

About Me
- Duncan McGeary
- I'm Duncan McGeary, owner and/or operator for the last 39 years of Pegasus Books in Downtown Bend, Oregon. These days I'm writing books as well as selling them. I'm the comic book guy. But even more so, I'm a book book guy. Books of all kinds. Big books and little books, children's and adult, fiction and non-fiction, hardback and paperback and trade paperback and graphic novels. Books with more words than pictures and books with more pictures than words. They are all part of the book world to me, and I love being surrounded by them every day.

Nice. I sent at least one towards your store, map in hand. Hopefully his Dad got it together enough to get up there from LaPine for his son.
I wish I had been able to make it in this year, but between working graveyard and being a bit sick, I was conked out in bed all day. Glad it went well!
