August 15th-19th, 2019 – Dublin

I was delighted to have a stall at Worldcon, where I showcased my latest work, books and even some Manny Man merch for people to take home. Worldcon is an event that brings the best of science fiction to artists and fans alike and 2019 was the first time Worldcon came to Ireland.
