Okay, let’s talk about how amazing it feels to meet such kind people whose goal and purpose is to help improve society and continue to grow.

Wow.

This was my first time at Booknet Fest, and I was blown away by how different it was from other conferences for a variety of reasons. One, they wanted to ensure everyone knew that everyone was on level playing ground. That we are all people. Two, they focused their panels on how to help the world and help each other. Three, monster romance! Yes!! And four, this was the only conference I felt I belonged so far, even though it was my first time. Maybe it was because we were all similar in age, or we were all young or kindred at heart, you could say. But it was amazing. I was complimented so many times on my outfits (Pokemon and Sailor Moon,) which had never happened before and made me feel so seen. I had such great conversations. I received a little blue therapy duck and attended a prom where we could all dress how we wanted to. It was honestly how I wish prom was when we were in school.

But truly, it was terrific and I would suggest anyone to go to help them grow because their vision is spectacular. Also, even though I was very drained socially and down coming straight into this conference because of a funeral at the beginning of the week, I was lifted back up by the end, which I was not expecting.

Booknet will be in Orlando, Florida, next year, May 23rd and 24th, 2025!
