SpringCon this weekend!

Diana Nock — Fri, 17 May 2013 23:21:08 +0000

Hey, guys, I’ve been really busy with the move, which seems it may never end, but I wanted to remind people local to the Twin Cities area that SpringCon is happening this weekend, and I will be there!!!! I haven’t been for a couple of years due to various reasons, but it was my mission to make it again this year. Mission: accomplished. I’ll have books and prints and some original art! Please come give me money or at least the pleasure of your company.

SpringCon will happen this weekend, May 18th & 19th, from 10 am until 5 pm at the Grandstand at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds.

The Sleep of the Just

Well, the time has come. I hurts me to do this, but I must put Girlbot on hiatus for six weeks. The reasons for this are many:

catching up on my Poorcraft work
building a buffer back up for Girlbot
moving in with my boyfriend
switching to new brain medication
other real-life stuff

I know this is an awkward place to pause, but it can’t be helped. I’m in Austin right now, and basically everything I own, including my computer and work tools, is sitting in boxes 1,000 miles away. I’ll be back home and settling into the new place in about a week-and-a-half. I’ll do what I can to post some filler updates when I can, be it a silly Girlbot comic or some guest art or whatever. I just need this time to sort some things out.

So come back to this place on June 17th for more story and some good news!

Stumptown was great, as always. Thanks to everyone who came by and said hi! FYI, there will be an announcement on Friday. I’ll try to make it somewhat entertaining.

The Stumptown Award nominees for this year have been announced, and two of them are projects I was a part of! Smut Peddler (adult material warning!) is up for Best Anthology, and Poorcraft, which I drew the entirety of, is up for Best Small Press. Voting is only open for a week, so go do that now!

Commence Dream Sequence – pt. 3

Hey, y’all, my friend Kel McDonald has been raising funds to get her book From Scratch reprinted. There’s only three days left on her Kickstarter, so maybe go throw a bit of money at her!

P.S. I’m very gratified by the number of flustered comments I got last week. Keep ‘em coming!

I’ve been officially confirmed to have space at both Kids Read Comics! and SPX this year, which is a relief! I’ve also added a new show to the roster: ConnectiCon in Hartford, CT, where I’ll be hanging out with the Hiveworks crew. If you’re on the East Coast, come see me!
