So far California is winning, so does this mean California will be our first state? How about getting authors to sign during these conventions guys?

Well.. considering that Nobuyuki Anza (though awesome and cute) lives in Japan.. I doubt we'll get him to come to sign for us.

.... BACK TO THE CONVERSATION
I was thinking that (of course we wouldn't be able to do big time authors) but we could find some goodreads authors willing to do the convention.

So you create a group then do nothing to be pro-active about it?

Tittle: GOODREADS needs to have a convention NOT We need to have a convention for goodreads members.

I like Lady Gaga. I respect the fact that she's a freak!

youtube just had there 1st ever VidCon, and youtube didn't organize it. over 100,000 people went! i'm not saying we'll have that many, but if we do nothing it's not gonna happen

Yeah! Actually I REALLY REALLY REALLY wished I could have gone to vid-con, but no money.. but that's what I heard.. and exactly AJ! You need to be pro-active if you actually want this to be put together.

thats not the purposed of the group..it's like a petition. Sign it (join) and send to company (email or whatever to goodreads)
But online petitions do nothing, it's a real waste of time, if you want something done you have to do it yourself. I'm willing to help, I'm coming back to Missouri soon (hopefully to move back) and I'll help with whatever I can.

S,
Manga is technically speaking a comic, but there will most likely be a manga part of the convention, considering that 3/4 of the people now a days who read are manga otakus.

yeah, it's partially a petition, but it's more:
we want a convention to meet up with ___ and ____ we think the best location is _____ cost to rent space and ___ is from ___ to _____
that kind of stuff.

Okay, and thank you Bendomolena!!!, that sums this all up very nicely.. oh, we also need to find a very smart and responsible person to be the one to bring this up to the goodreads staff. If the wrong person brings it up it just might not work.

Zoey is saying we were saying it wrong.
BUT they can be said either way! HA!
Veto'd = vetoed
Veto-ing = vetoing

St. Louis would be a very nice place to have it. There's this nice Marriot hotel in St Louis that has a gorgeous room for meetings. I could look the price it would be to book. We'd have to have maybe a dozen persons that go early and get the room set up (move tables out of way, put stuff together, etc.). It could be very fun!
The question is though: How many goodreads members would be willing to travel to St. Louis?
I'm going to start a poll on this...

Well, since I live in Missouri, St. Louis wouldn't be so hard to get to.
