Telltale Games

Telltale Games, if you didn't know, are the makers of the award-winning Sam and Max games, as well as Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People and the new Wallace and Grommit's Grand Adventures. They are not only magnificent people, but generous as well, as they sent me a free copy of the above-mentioned new Wallace and Grommit title. I plan on playing it this weekend and giving a full report next week.

In other news, Emerald City Comic Con is a week from Saturday. Yes, your best chance to meet Leigh and myself, both fully clothed and bathed, is coming up soon. We would be delighted to talk to you and your friends/children/pets/in-laws/stalkers/childhood sweehearts/elementary school teachers, so bring them along.

Look for a new episode of Art the Wanderer on Monday and the usual silliness the rest of the week.

Cheers,

Friday!

Yes, the weekend is almost upon us.

I would like to remind everyone that Emerald City Comic Con is in two-weeks, followed quickly by Stumptown. Leigh will be happy to do quick sketches and will do full drawings for a nominal fee. I will once again be offering free sentences.

I even made a sign. It looks kinda like this:

Sentence: Free
Paragraph: $1
Novel: $20K

The way I figure it, I only really need to sell one novel.

Look for two new pages of Art the Wanderer on Monday, a new page on Tuesday, and the usual blogs the rest of the week.

Cheers,

Emerald City Comic Con

Well, tomorrow is the big day. We'll be making our Con debut at the Emerald City Comic Con.

(I keep resisting the urge to shout 'CON!' and shake my fist in the air)

Anyway, I'm sure I can speak for both of us when I say that we are both nervous, excited, anxious, eager, slightly nauseous, and quite gassy. It's like the day before going to Disneyland (Disney Eve?) when you're eight. You're pretty sure it's going to rock, but you're afraid you're going to hurl on the teacups again.

Yes, my brothers made me hurl on the teacups. I was five and they spun it really fast. My only regret is that I didn't manage to hit either one of them.

A great many of our friends have promised to show up and lend their support. Those who do not will be officially demoted from 'friend' to 'acquaintance,' with all 'friend' rights (such as using me and my truck to move) will be summarily removed.

I kid. I will still help them move. I may not tie their stuff down, but I'll help.

So, if you happen to live in the area and want to get an autographed copy of Issue #1 and a sketch from Leigh (I will be offering to write sentences), come on by.

I should have some good stories and pictures next week.

Cheers,
-Jason

Convention Listings.

So we've had some questions about why we're not yet listed as exhibitors at Emerald Con. This is because we were fortunate enough to be high on the waiting list for a table and only got one this week. So the ECCC staff hasn’t had a chance to update the list with any of our info yet.

We’ll be there though. :)
