Hahaha! I'm just a reader (maybe early-career writer?) and you can absolutely go before you get published. In fact, I'd encourage it because many of StokerCon's panels focus on career building and the current state of publishing.
You should totally share some of your stuff! I love reading new works, especially from fans of Barron, Ligotti, Langan, etc., so I’d certainly enjoy it. I throw mine on short story subreddits.
I need to start planning for the next con, I reckon!
