Well, look at that, Kate Beaton just put up her 300th comic. Neat!

Our bags are packed with all the things a Convention Booth needs to grow and thrive. There's a lot to look forward to at ECCC. Dylan Meconis will be there so I can get me some more copies of Family Man, as a book about eighteenth century quasi-atheist bookworm heroes is something that pretty much everyone I know needs. Our neighbor at APE, Knights of the Nine to Five will also be there so we can give them a hard time about why there haven't been any updates in, like, for-evs. And the most stirring question - do I want to spend $110 to get my picture taken with James Marsters, Nicholas Brendon, and the actress who played Glory in season 5? Hmmm....
