This coming Wednesday, January 30, I'll be doing a very rare bookstore signing at Atlantis Fantasyworld in Santa Cruz, California. The shop is located at 1020 Cedar St. — in Santa Cruz (of course) and I'll be there from Noon 'til 6 PM. Come by. Make a purchase. Keep me company. I think this is the first bookstore appearance I've made in about ten years.
In March, I'll be at two conventions, both of them in Southern California. March 7-10, it's the San Diego Comic Fest, a small (by Comic-Con standards) gathering that's intimate, friendly, unjammed and always a lot of fun. Details can be found on this website.
Then later in March — March 29 thru 31, to be precise — you'll find me at WonderCon Anaheim. Details here. At both of these assemblages, I'll be hosting panels and talking to people and doing my best to avoid sitting behind a table.
And I've accepted an invite to guest at this year's Heroes Con in Charlotte, North Carolina. It's June 14-16 and I don't know much more about it than that right now. Their website is over here.
And as you can probably guess, I'll be at Comic-Con International in San Diego, which is July 18-21 with a Preview Night on July 17. I still don't understand why they don't just say the convention is July 17-21 but then there are many things in this world I don't understand. This will the fiftieth of these conventions, which I find amazing. Even more amazing is that it'll be the fiftieth one of these I've attended. That is not humanly possible.
