And....

Tr!ckster Schedule!

Sunday, July 24
10:00am-12:00   Billie the Unicorn book signing

Tr!ckster will be held across the street from Comic Con at the San Diego Wine and Culinary Center, 200 Harbor Drive, Suite 120.

I'm planning on hanging around there Friday at 3pm, and Saturday afternoon before the panel, for  anyone who would like a signed book.  Tr!ckster will have Billie available in their pop up store during the convention.  I'm very thankful they are willing to carry it and to let me sign!  Also really excited to be on a panel with some good friends!






The "Girls Drawing Girls IV:  The Way Nature Made Her" will be available at their booth, #5628, and I had a lucky chance to draw a page for that.  Looks like it'll be a beautiful book!


Thanks to everyone who came out to our panel at Anime Expo last weekend!  I also met a nice lass named Katie who beat me at Rock, Paper, Scissors.  She won the gift bag at the panel!
(and I totally saw people in the audience trying to cheat!  HA HA!! XD )

It was a fun panel. The original piece reminds me of a dance recital I was in when I was 4. My cousin and I did a tap and routine and sang to "Catch A Falling Star". :D

Jake- I won't be at a table. Was unable to find the space, and I think the waiting list for SDCC is four years long?! If you want anything signed, I'll be hanging around Trickster Friday and Sunday at least, especially Sunday morning at 10am on my signing.

Mirelmture- Whoa! What a co-inky dink!

Ashleymarie- Congrats on your impending baby! May your labor be short, and your nap after be sweet!

Oh man, I love that Ivy drawing so so much! Your work is always inspiring :)

Percy Bysshe said...

All the best with all that panelling and wheeling and dealing and what not! (PS - your capacity to withstand all those free flying hormonal substances is truly remarkable...)

Carrie- Thank you! I love your pineapple avatar. Pineapple love!

Riley- I'm afraid I've developed an immunity to nerd sweat. <3
