Just a reminder that Elise & Raven will be at GeekGirlCon 2024, November 9-10, at the Seattle Conference Center in Downtown Seattle! We’re booth 208 in the Dealer’s Hall.
Both Raven & Elise will have new wares so come say hello!
P.S. Because GeekGirlCon is all inclusive, masks are REQUIRED at this event.
We’re excited to get back to vending at conventions and chatting with everyone, so we’re excited to announce that barring another serious variant, we’ll be at Washington State SummerCon this June!
We’re hoping to add another convention or two this year as well so stay tuned!
Books & Chains will be in the dealer’s hall on AIRMEET for this virtual convention. You’ll be able to come video/audio chat with us, ask questions about our items, and watch us make chainmaille, paint, and/or write during dealer’s room hours! You can also go to our store and shop!
To get to our Airmeet room, go to Norwescon.org. Click on the button as a paid guest or not. Once in airmeet, go to the ARENA. Scroll down to Books & Chains and click the image. 🙂

THURSDAY: 4:00pm to 8:00 PM FRIDAY: 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM SATURDAY: 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM SUNDAY: 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM
2020–the year of Covid-19 and crazy politics. After our event at NerdFaire in Lynnwood, WA, all of our events for the 2020 Year were cancelled.
You’re welcome to order from our online store but otherwise, we’ll be waiting this out with everyone else. Several of our events have already shifted to virtual for 2021. We’ll let you know when we start doing in person events again. 🙁
We noticed it had been a while since we’d updated the event calendar, which has now been updated to fully reflect 2019’s calendar. On that note, if you’re looking for a way to drown your sorrows that the man who was Chewbacca has died or celebrate this geeky weekend (May the 4th be with you, or possibly Revenge of the 5th, depending upon how you roll), come on out to Puyallup for the Geek Craft Market!
This coming weekend (Oct. 27-28), Books & Chains will be at GeekGirlConin Seattle, Booth 703!
We’ll have the usual variety of geeky, handmade chainmaille jewelry, plus books by local authors Raven Oak & Jennifer Brozek! Raven will have prints as well as some limited edition canvas prints of her art. Both authors have new titles so come check out the goodies!
Books & Chains will be at the Washington State Toy & Geek Fest this weekend (June 30-July 1) in Puyallup, WA at the State Fair Grounds! We’ll have guest author Jennifer Brozek with us, along with new chainmaille and books, so come stop by and say hello! We’ll be at Booth E-15!
This past weekend was our first time vending at Rose City Comic Con in Portland, OR, and it was a blast! So much excellent cosplay (some of which you can see over on Raven’s Wrap-Up post), geeky people, and fun guests. We had quite a blast chatting with all of you! Here are some photos from our weekend:
We gave out 300 swag bags full of autographed goodies, coloring pages, and a chainmaille dangle made from maille that was created for NASA’s Mars Insight mission. The pieces were highly limited in quantity so those who got one were quite lucky!
Friday morning, an entire parade of R2 units that went by, which you can watch in Raven’s video below.
