Booth #4300.

We’re excited about this for multiple reasons:

Only twenty feet from Starbucks!
Easy for you to find!

Smart Pop Books publishing is listed in two places in the exhibit hall guide, and you’ll still be able to pick up a sampler from our table at #J7, but #4300 is where the action is.

This is 2012’s version of our yearly sampler volume, with standalone essays and excerpts from , , , and —plus, as a bonus, excerpts from two of our parent publisher BenBella Books� 2012 pop culture titles: insider memoir and Claudia Christian’s . This year, it clocks in at 144-pages of between-panel entertainment.

Along with the sampler, you can pick up a free Smart Pop button, so as to better adorn your convention badge lanyard.Ìý We’re also starting a new tradition: limited edition Smart Pop buttons.
