My alarm went off at 7am. By 7:30am I finally managed to drag my carcass out of bed and plopped down in front of the computer to print out Forest Through the Trees. I came to
Grabbed breakfast as they were packing it up and stole bacon off of someome’s plate.
After getting my table set up a bunch of were looking at panels we might want to sit in on. It was at that time we realised that Cloudscape was supposed to be doing a panel on mini-comics. Which unfortunately was a surprise to even them. Luckily Janathon threw together a schedule. I was the girl with the longarm stapler so I got nomimated to demonstrate how to assemble a mini-comic. After each person was done speaking we went into an open discussion on mini-comics. We spoke about how web-comics are affecting mini-comics.
The afternoon was relatively normal until Crazy Steven came along. We’d all seen him before. The last time he approached me he spoke about shooting people. This time it was about a pimp drug lord who ruined people’s lives. My tablemate fled half way through the conversation leaving me by myself with Crazy Steven. Luckily, Jonathon distracted him enough for me to get away.
We (the comic creators) packed up and went for dinner where we proceeded to talk to each other about our plans for next year and how we aren’t going to VCon next year.

(I don’t know how coherant this last part is)

I’m really not sure how to feel about today. I’m really nervous about sharing a table with someone. At least she’s a writer and I do comics, so to the average person, they are two separate things entirely. I don’t think I’ll be really settled until my booth is up and my comics are stapled.
I should have brought my dice.
Artist Alley was split up into two parts. It was first come first serve which means people were everywhere and gamer overflow was in our section which cut into our space. But I was lucky because I had a visible spot in the hallway. I also plan to print some posters tonight.
I got macked on by the man meets woman (?) people, this seems to be a trend with them though.
I also convinced the boys to get up and talk about their books. The comic creators kind of formed a gang here at the con. It doesn’t hurt that we’ve all known each other for a while too so it’s more a matter of old friends getting together and selling their comics.
There was also the matter of me convincing Steve that just because he’s not a household word, that he can still speak about what he does as a webcomic artist. (he is more well known than he thinks he is)
All in all it was a good day.

There is only one question I have left, who is Russ and why does he keep hugging me?
