Anyone up for Graphic Novel Launch Party?

I want to thank Arisia for having me out for the convention this past weekend. While I was unable to attend on Monday due to the weather, I had a fabulous time while I was there. Thanks to everyone who came by my table in the Pro's Nest. I may have mentioned that I have a new book coming out, and you're all invited to come the launch party. Here's the details:



"Paradigm Shift - Part Three: Emergence" Launch Party next Saturday at the Atomic Bean in Cambridge. There will be coffee, cake, and original artwork on the walls, and I'll be drawing sketches for anyone who asks! I may also be selling copies of the new book, too. ;)

Come on out and celebrate with me!

Arisia con report, by an actual fan

Hi folks,

Having read through the Wet Asphalt thread [ http://bit.ly/8Wt2d6 ], I felt that Arisia was getting pretty harsh treatment from (a) someone who "wanted" to have a good time but didn't, and (b) someone who has some serious anger management issues and a wicked hatred of fandom or tribalism of any sort .  Except for the punk scene, of course, which is sacred!  We all know how healthy and adjusted the punk crowd is.  hmmph.

Anyway, from a person who is proud to be a fan, (and also likes Jello Biafra, go figure!) here's my account of Arisia 2010 and the sessions I attended:

con report: techno-fantasy fest, in a kilt

were there juvenile goings on?  absolutely!   did the con-suite get sort of swampy?  you bet!  were there posers and poseurs, artists and artistes, the wretched and the profane?   sure, bring it on!   and see you all next year.

aloha,
