Chapter One is really actually finished, and I’ve just sent it off to a printer who assures me she can have the various component parts (pages, maps, stickers, prints, bookmarks) of the first 25 copies waiting for me in Boston when I get there on Friday. I’ll be up with Neil at Cara‘s place collating and assembling into the wee hours so I can debut the book the next day at MICE, where, if all goes according to plan, I will sell them at a rather substantial loss, because yeesh you guys, printing is expensive. After this initial test run I am going to have to figure out a better way to make these things.
The Massachusetts Independent Comics Expo
Saturday, September 29th, 10 a.m. – 7 p.m.
University Hall, 1815 Mass Ave., Cambridge, MA
Neil Brideau, Jason Viola, Cara Bean, Matt Aucoin, Holly Foltz, Marek Bennet, kenan, and so many other brilliant cartoonists.
Super extra free.
Tomorrow I will call my print designer friends and start doing the offset math. I will scramble to catch up on all the web work I owe clients. I’ll buy bus tickets to Boston and back and wish I’d done it weeks ago. Hopefully, I will even scratch out some sketches for Chapter Two. But just now, everyone in this house needs a nap.
Holy crap! What are you doing with my tablet? (sigh. mine’s just a 12″-er)
AND, MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH MY CAT?!?!

Also: your studio is dreamy.
Also: have fun at MICE!
Our cats are dreamy. My “studio” (also known as “the corner”) is deceptively photogenic.
