Seattle! I am here!

It's time for Emerald City Comic-Con, Seattle's very own answer to the fact that San Diego has become the Mordor of Nerds! It's an awesome three day event in lovely downtown Seattle, and once again, I'm going to be bringing down the house in my own inimitable (and occasionally awkward) fashion.

I have one program item this year: "Beyond the Genre in Genre Fiction" on Friday morning at 11:40am. I am appearing with a bunch of truly awesome people, including Kory Bing, who some among you may remember as the illustrator for the InCryptid Field Guide. I am super excited! You should come!

If you can make the con but can't make my panel, I'll be around throughout the weekend, and am happy to sign things if spotted. Or if not spotted, but then the things may not belong to you.

Emerald City!

EDIT: After writing last night, I realized today that I had inadvertently slighted both "Velveteen" and your ability to write superhero fiction. Not good! What I mean, in hindsight and post-exhaustion, was whether you had thought of trying to write a monthly comic. I'm worried that I completely left out the the obvious: the volumes of prose superhero fiction that have come out from Seanan ("Velveteen"), which I do not have yet. I was trying to ask whether you had ever considered doing full scripting, working with another artist (who had time and speed), and either self-publishing or submitting a comic book title to a publisher? I very hastily want to say that I know you write, have written, and will write again superhero fiction, of amateur, semi-pro, and pro status...

But I was really asking about printed sequential art I could buy at my local comic shop, and whether you have considered the (usually incredible arduous) path to going for that...

Right. English is clearly not my native language, despite having been born into it. "Muddle" and "murky" must be the dialects I use late at night.
I'm going to go lie down before I embarrass myself further. Umm... I haven't seen an interview link on "Velveteen" yet, though I might have missed that. Did I miss them?

I don't even understand what you mean by "an interview link."

I am not sure what I meant either. I will no longer write people when half-asleep and make an ass of myself.
