Win a Spirit Hood from SpritiHoods.com and FleaTheMagician

My sister site Idol360.org is running a contest that I believe appeals to the general anime convention going audience, so I am cross posting it here, and everyone gets a chance to win!

 

This week we are giving away an awesome hood by Spirit Hoods. The same kind seen on Ke$ha, Fergie and Bruno Mars. These hoods are a hot accessory for the winter, and let you show your WILD side. These hoods are made from faux fur, but don’t be mistaken, this fake fur truly feels and looks real. A great deal of time and energy was spent in the design of each hood, each having its own unique characteristics and charm, from ears to buttons – no two hoods are the same. A portion of the proceeds from every “Product Blue” hood sold is donated to helping the specific animal the hood is designed after. So even if you don’t win, check out Spirit Hoods Product Blue page and see how you can help out.

Now on to the contest. It’s easy to win! Simply post this message to your twitter account: Want to win a SPIRIT HOOD just like the one Ke$ha wears? Find out how at http://bit.ly/bfPkfw and follow @Idol360 and @SpiritHoods to win!
Double your chance to win by blogging about this contest and sending a link to @ spirithoods@idol360.org.

One winner will be chosen via random draw at the end of the contest on October 28th. Winner must be following @Idol360 and @SpiritHoods to be able to claim their prize. Style of hood is subject to change. One entry per account per day, and subsequent entries will not count.

AAC 2010 - THIS WEEKEND!

We will be at Another Anime Convention in Nashua NH this weekend! This is one of our favorite conventions to attend. The people there are great and there is lots of fun to be had and havoc to create.

In 2009 we had our own dealers room booth during the day, and partied all night. The link goes to a video we did with Things Are Worse Than Ever. So check that out too!

See you this weekend!

Connecticon 2010 Photo Galleries! Caw-Caw!

This year’s Connecticon was amazing. We met some great people, and partied hard! Unfortunately for my site, I lost about 50% of my photos in a horrible memory card accident. I will be trying my hardest to get a new camera for our next convention, Otakuthon, in August.

I do have the surviving pictures, and will be uploading them shortly!

UPDATE!

The photo gallery has been uploaded! Check it out here: http://fleathemagician.com/coppermine/thumbnails.php?album=28

Where We Went + 3 New Cons for 2010

 

Shortly after Posting about going to PAX East, my life got sent into a bit of a tailspin. One of my best friends died while I was at the convention. The weekend after that I had obligations to staff Anime Boston (which is why there was no coverage from that convention this year). Shortly after that, my godmother passed away. Then my mom and I were forced out of our home and had to move (which thankfully went smoothly thanks to some great friends, many of whom have helped out with the site). The last bit of news that hit my family hard was the death of my grandmother on May 27th.

With all this pain and suffering, I am looking forward to happier times in the form of Connecticon (Connecticut, July 9-11), Otakuthon (Montreal, Aug 13-15) and Another Anime Convention (New Hampshire, Oct 15-17).

Our GRAND RE OPENING will be for CONNECTICON! I just confirmed our Hotel reservations for the weekend and we are ready to go!

Check out our CONNECTICON 2007, CONNECTICON 2008 and CONNECTICON 2009 galleries, and we hope to see you there!
