July updates, portion 01

Yes, for anyone who’s interested, there will be an actual comic for this week. Unfortunately, schedules and stars have not aligned properly yet to make it reality at this exact mintue. But soon[ish]. Update: Comic is up! Visit NormalityRestored dot com to view it properly

One of the reasons that this is so is because I’ve been bogged down with the insane and awful prospect of having to move, yet again. April December and I have only been in our place for what is less than 3 months right now, and because we’re not fucking assholes, have agreed to try and help our landlords in their urgent need to sell the house we live in, in order for said landlords to not get sucked completely into financial ruin. We have found another place, not in Mount Washington but in Pasadena. The new house is awesome in an entirely different way than our current one. Sadly, we’re still waiting for our landlords to pay-up the money they owe us (and is due no later than today) which will be needed for the move by our target date of Aug 1st… we’ll see if they come through. In my head it could go either way, and I’m so tired of fighting with them, that I’m really hoping they don’t fuck up.

Also to add to the growing pile of too-much-going-on, San Diego International Comic Con. Or, how it is locally known: Nerd Prom (also, as SDCC for short). Because of the sudden need to move (again. 10 months before we were even considering it) April December and I were not sure that we would be able to attend. However, for this, I do have good news! Although our original plans of full, four-day attendance are still sunk, we will be there on Sat and Sun it looks like, which will allow us to see a lot of people we don’t get to see very often, and be at a con again. I apparently (without previous knowledge, except thanks to Drew Rausch) been listed on the SLG signing schedule. I will still be signing at SLG as far as I know, likely on Sat, possibly on Sun, for The Cemeterians. I will post an update when I know the details for that. Otherwise, we will hopefully be talking to the folks who are set to publish my next Graphic Novel (tentative/working/project-only-and-will-likely-change title: Dorothy) as well as some other great folks in the industry.

Nerd Prom is upon us, much faster than we could imagine, and there is still much to do. With that, I must away myself to said things.

SLG booth (#1815, right next to the DC Compound). Current times listed on the SLG site, and blogs are probably not accurate for me right now. Will list updated times as I discover them.

I love you all,

Updated the Save Nerd Love 2009 Updates Page.

Yep, the post title is correct, we have an update, this time with proper pictures. These were taken by Carl & Molly and I think that they not only show a good idea of their con nerdmance,  but I thought it would be a nice thing to show their photos first. Head over to the Update Page to see them (they’re at the top) and click on the thumbnails to see the full version.

Ok, back to my own personal madness. Cheers to all, I love you all, and thank you again!
