BOOKED! a book festival …in a day...or "it was a con!"

I am re-posting this here since I hear a new con(fidence trick) might be in the works.

It all started when the former organiser of the Bristol Comic Expo sent out this message:

"I've mentioned that con event and here is what was promised and who to look out for (though I am told the two women have moved on to other things)

"After co-producing the SCARDIFF Horror Convention last year and the aniManga POP! show in Plymouth last month, time to add yet another COMIC EXPO style Convention and where better than Bristol to do so….

FANTASY EVENTS are delighted to announce the

NEW CONVENTION we are working along side

BACK COVER PROMOTIONS
Children’s and
…. beyond!

stomping ground of the Ramada Hotel in Bristol, well the nifty refurbished Double Tree by Hilton ( to use the new name! )

BOOKED! a book festival …in a day

Which is what it says, special guests, authors, publishers, panels, book launches , Q&A sessions, workshops and much more!

A multi channel showcase covering Sci Fi, Fantasy, Romance,

Expect Novels, Graphics and Live Music!

And where else to host the Convention than the old COMIC EXPO

Saturday 29th November is the date to Book BOOKED!

Website in now live with 1st wave of guests, sponsor packages and exhibitor details and the contact info!"

What we got was an unpublicised event and I have still to find one mainstream publisher from the UK or Europe who were invited. Just a few small pressers were there based on the recommendation of the former Bristol Expo organiser.

Try getting your money back...I did try and the organisers had "vanished"
