In two days we’ll be on our way to Alton, and thence to California; I’ll finally be meeting Stephen<\/a> and Erin<\/a> and Kris<\/a>, and a great host of other humans<\/a>, not to mention buying a great many new comics. And I’ll get to see Leonard<\/a> and Sumana<\/a> again! And it’ll be my first cross-country trip on a train! I EXPLODE WITH AWESOMENESS!<\/p>\n

It’s strange to think that we’ve been planning this for almost an entire year; I was investigating possible trip companions and talking about prices with Stephen before the last Comic Con<\/a> was over. My enthusiasm for the trip has yet to diminish even a whit, despite the fact that I’m desperately behind on… The Secret Project.<\/i><\/p>\n

Which Will<\/a> already talked about, so I guess I can too. He, Lisa<\/a>, Stephen and I are putting together an ashcan comic to sell to or throw at Con attendees–something we’ve also been planning for a long time. It’s only natural that I’m not done yet, and will probably be up all night tonight finishing my section. We investigated printing prices (Kinko’s, et cetera), then ended up buying a totally sweet laser printer<\/a> and an extra high-capacity cartridge for less than it would have cost to get it done at a shop. We’re going to bind it ourselves and sell it cheap, and I’ll probably put at least my section up on this “web site” once I get back and have time. I’m drawing my part based on Stephen’s script, which is a new and interesting experience for me, and I hope I get it right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
