WWPhilly-Day 1

It's 7 in the morning and I'm achy and only partially concious. Day 1 of the con went pretty well.

We arrived at noon and set up shop at the Archaia Studios Press booth. Sold lots of books, which is awesome, and I sold some prints and cards. Mouse Guard,especially, is selling. Like hotcakes I say! It eventually got pretty slow, but it was only Friday. Also, I got to see alot of my comic biz homies. As well as many other homies. Fun fun.

When the con was over, we packed up everything and headed to Rangoon, a Burmese place in Chinatown. Had dinner with Dave Petersen(Mouse Guard,) Mark Smylie(Artesia,) and Sean Wang(Runners.) On the way, I just happened to see my friend Annelisa so I dragged her along too. After that, it was drinks at the Marriot. This bar becomes comic pro central after con hours. People walking around there included David Mack, Mike Oeming, Dave Devries, Kevin Smith, lots of others...

It's been awesome. Oh man, I'm gonna get my name-dropping ass showered and ready for more comic con. Later!

So envious of you! I am a big big fan of Mark Smylie... I can't tell you the number of times that I've said to people "I want Anara to be like Artesia when it grows up."

You are a lucky person you are! :)

I didn't know that that you were into Artesia. Cool. I've been friends and a freelancer of Mark's for a little while now.

This is me being envious and happy for you! :)

Yeah, BIG fan of Artesia. I have all the singles, and the compilations... my friendly neighborhood comic shop knows better than to NOT offer me up the latest product, lest I bring down the wrath of the Gods upon them.

The only reason I don't own the Artesia RPG is because I didn't have the money to buy it at the last gaming 'con, and since it's not an R. Talsorian produced Fuzion product, I don't get one for free (being one of the testers/design monkeys for the original Fuzion system...).

If I can get my paltry little web comic to be half as cool as Artesia, I'll be doing well. :)
