NYCC 09, and the small gaggle of photos

Didn't get to take too many photos at NYCC. My hope was to take more on Sunday of my friends, have adventures in NYC on Monday, and take lots of pics with my girls... but sadly my plans were taken over by the sickness. Oh well!

Least I have a lil' something. ^^;

Hey guys!


So NYCC went well, ....well minus getting sick. Oh boy has this been a dozy. I still feel under the weather, and it's been 9 days of me having this beast! It hasn't been pretty.

Anyways thanks to those who made it out to the con, said "hi", picked up some prints, etc.


My trip wouldn't had been anything without my Kim, Cassandra and Niki. They are my girls eternally.


Also had a lot of fun with my Archaia family - Nick, Alex, Dave R. and A. Dave. Also met the new boss man, PJ. Speaking of which, this brings me to good news about The God Machine!


Discussed things with PJ, and we both agreed on a July release date for the first issue of The God Machine to come out. After that the book will probably go straight to graphic novel [to be announced when that will be released.] Which, wow! how exciting is that? My story will do better in a graphic novel format anyways.


Which means, i will be attending SDCC this year, and my book should be released at that show. :)

Speaking of conventions...

Let me know who you are if you know me- and remember i'm terrible at names and screen names [ i will bastardize it and/or not know it. Super sorry! My memory is always the pits!]


Remember, New York Comic-con, IS this weekend, the 6th-8th.

Also, updated my beat up old web-site, spookychan.com, with links and an extended pic as seen here. I like it, even if it's minimal. >_>;

NYCC, Mega-Con, & The God Machine re-signed!!

So much information to get done, and my hands hurt! >_<



First conventions appearances-

------------------



New York Comic-con
Feb. 6th-8th




Today i got the official word that I will be attending New York Comic-con. No word on when i'll be at the booth, but I will be at the Archaia Studios Press booth [i think, I couldn't find Archaia listed this year, but our new mother company, Kunoichi Inc, is listed as booth #949. So I'm not sure if we'll be with them this year. More details on this booth situation when I get more information from Mark Smylie next week.

I'll be selling prints, giving out stickers, and totally unsure about sketches due to hands. [This will have to be decided at the convention].




------------------


Mega-con
Feb 27th - March 1st


I’ll be in Artist Alley; Burgundy 8A section. I'll be doing the same thing [prints/stickers/etc.] at Mega-con. The cool thing about Mega-con is it's in my home town, and i'm not going to freeze to death. :) Also, you'll certainly see my best friend Ana Aesthetic in all her costumed glory stop by from time to time, and also my amazing cousin, Lindsay Cibos and her partner in crime, Jared Hodges, will be in artist alley as well. Come out to say local true-believers [Nick started my Stan Lee kick there] and say hi. :) ~And also you strange souls who actually come to Mega-con from out of town. ^_~

Showroom Hours:
Friday – 1-7pm
Saturday – 10am-6pm
Sunday – 10am-5pm


------------------

Pay-pal


If you'd like to donate some money to help me with my expenses for these conventions, it would be gladly appreciated. [i make nothing, literally.]

palpal account: witchycrankypoo@gmail.com
*note it's under my husband's account, so if you see a name of "James" in the invoice, you know why.

Thanks guys! I wish i could offer up cheap commissions right now, but i'm going to be busy for awhile. I'll try to open up something if i have the time, but no promises.


------------------

Last, but certainly not least-



The God Machine has been re-signed with Archaia Studios Press!!!



As of today, I finally got back my signed copy of my contract from the new boss man, PJ Bickett.
You're probably thinking, "What? Wasn't she signed with Archaia already?"

Answer to that is, yes I was signed. -But back in mid 2007 Archaia went through restructuring and was acquired by Kunoichi Inc. New contracts were issued to ALL talent published under Archaia, negotiations happened in length, and books were put on hold. Hence, "The God Machine" never came out for it's July/Aug/Fall debut. [You can read the restructuring further on Archaia's website.] Just this month, Archaia started releasing some of it's titles.

So, "The God Machine" is re-signed, now what?
Well, that's in my corner currently. Due to my carpal tunnel, i've held off on setting a new schedule for my comic to be released. So, as soon as I can figure out my limitations, and what I can do, the best possible release date is probably mid to late 2009.

I do apologize for all my silence, but really there were a lot of times where I was unsure of what was going to happen and didn't want to give false information until I was totally sure of the situation at hand.

Also to let you know, I'm very happy with my new contract with Archaia, and still look forward to having a long relationship with them.




------------------

So that's about it.

Also i have a new account [old actually] at blogger:
Come add me to your blog list!

Working on a new web site, business cards,and "trying to get ready for NYCC 09'.

p.s. The God Machine is still going to be published... just not sure when.
