Convention Attendance is, for better or for worse, the life's breath of fledgling comic creators. This is where we meet fans, make contacts, see what other people are -really doing- (as opposed to what they say on their websites) and get a pulse of the industry. I am not used to Comic Book Conventions as I normally attend SciFi/Fantasy Conventions, but one must evolve or die. I'm too young to die needlessly, so "hello Comic Conventions!" I still plan to attend my old-standards as well.
MegaCon (February 24-26, 2006) will be Chris's and my first convention we attend together. It is here we will strive to make our first major decisions, such as self publish or find a publisher, and that will also decide if we continue to do Lineage as a greyscale comic or go full color.
RavenCon (April 21-23, 2006) will be the second convention I attend this year. I will be there with my wife as a jewelry vendor, but I hope to get in on a panel or two on writing.
OASIS19 (May 26-28, 2006) will be the third convention I attend. Again, I'll be there primarily as a jeweler and a massage therapist, but I intend to be on a few panels (was last year).
San Diego Comic-Con (July 20-23, 2006) will be Chris's and my second convention we attend together. There is a slim chance that we may just have the first GN "Lineage - Harbingers of Change" ready for early release here! If nothing else, we may have proof copies... but I'm not going to promise it this early.
Dragon*Con (September 1-4, 2006) will be the next convention I attend. At present, it is still up in the air as to whether I'll be there primarily as a Jeweler/massage therapist, or whether Chris will be able to fly out. Our plan is to have the first GN of Lineage officially released at Dragon*Con.
Necronomicon (October 27-29, 2006) is the last convention on my schedule this year. Again, this one I will be attending with my wife as a jeweler and massage therapist. I also do henna body art at these things (chris isn't the only one who can draw... he just draws better!).
That is a good, initial accounting for our year as we know it thus far. As the schedule changes, I'll post updates!
