Saturday's training class

Or how two women cried and two men argued about copyright law. In the middle of a presentation on how to sell handmade and vintage items on Etsy. Unbelievable.

Saturday's presentation started out with so much promise. The Houston Chronicle ran a little blurb about my How to Sell on Etsy presentation at the Downtown public library. A little buzz was generated; inquiries were made.  

Everything was going great. Then a very strange argument broke out about copyright issues, and it all took an unexpedted detour into crazytown. The visual aid above chronicles the timeline for each incident, and how it turned into a real domino effect. 

I can't take it too personally. The public library is the modern depository for the homeless, the disenfranchised, and the type to cry or argue during a fun presentation on how to sell handmade goods on Etsy.
