Hey all, I'm helping with the publicity for Left Coast Crime in Denver in '08. What I'd love to know is what elements make a wonderful convention -- and what elements make one suck?<br />
<br />
Sure, I'm looking for ideas to use as springboards for the publicity for this particular event, but I'm also just plain curious.<br />
<br />
Good elements:<br />
1. strong mix of "fans" and readers<br />
2. big name authors (GIVE ME SOME NAMES THAT MAKE A CON GOOD!)<br />
3. emphasis on fun<br />
4. cross-genre panels<br />
5. unexpected panels…

4. cross-genre panels <br />
5. unexpected panels <br />
6. hotel with a BIG, comfortable bar <br />
7. good restaurants in hotel and surrounding area -- BUT I think that if the surrounding area is too interesting, people won't stick around for the convention but will go discovering and that's detrimental <br />
8. a pleasant hospitality room so that everyone has a place to hang out <br />
9. the appearance of organization (hey, it can be insanity, but if it looks like it's all under control, that's what counts, IMHO)
