SPX!


Who's going to SPX 2009? I am, I am! Thanks to the driving skills and good company of the legendary Mike Rhode, I'll be attending as "Press" on Saturday. Anybody else going to be there?

UPDATE-

Agh. I didn't make it there today (Saturday). My apologies, especially to Mike Rhode, and I hope everybody had fun. Maybe tomorrow....

UPDATE 2-

Nope.

Yay! I'll be looking forward to seeing you there.

Fortran said...

I'm going to be there, though I wish you were there as "artist" and not "press"!

Greg said...

I'll be there. I hope to seeing you on Saturday!

Jason said...

I'll be there and will keep a eye out for you.

Cedar said...

I know I am late to the game on this, but I was out of town last week and catching up on my stories, as my husband calls them, and was kind of overwhelming upset to learn that Ernesto isn't real.

Mark Coale said...

are you going to the baltimore con in a few weeks?

David Hagen said...

I'm going to try to make it Sunday afternoon. Better late than never.

DH. said...

Hi, Richard! I'll be exhibiting at table E1, hoping to meet you and trade some doodles. Yes, please, thank you.

Andy said...

Are you going to be selling the new book? I'd love to pick it up from you this weekend.

here today, gone tomorrow said...

Gahan Wilson AND Richard Thompson in one place - the same place - at the same time?????

*clunk!*

(That's me fainting from the sheer pleasure of contemplating such a notion.)

Zack, Fortran, Greg, Jason, DH, Andy and maybe David; see you al lhere! Wear a hat (or hats) so I'll know you! Sadly, I won't have any books yet though/

Cedar- maybe he is, maybe he isn't. I'm not sure myself.

Mark- yes, I'll be there on Saturday. I'll wear a hat (or hats) so you'll know me.

Htgt- clunk! Gahan Wilson is far more glamorous than I am.

Angry P- SPX is much smaller than Comic Con, almost as crazy, and just as friendly.
