I'm thinking of heading to Comicpalooza during mid-day on Saturday, on my way up to Conroe to see some TRF friends in Oliver! on Saturday evening.

Are DSLR Cameras allowed in to Comicpalooza?

Take Care,

May make an appearance on Sunday, going to NorCal Pirate Festival in June so my money is going towards that.

Nope,  I'll be at work.  To be honest, they'd need some more interesting (to me) celeb guests to get me in there with the cost of tickets and parking there being what they are.
With a gun show and Comicpalooza at the same time, the GRB should be 'interesting' though  ::)
Have fun parking!

But Zardoz, our very own Breandan will be there introducing his his newly published roll playing game, Dark Nova, and touting the novels he has coming out right now, as well, which are set in the same Universe as his game!!!  Surely going out to support one of our own is well worth the price if admission!?!   

I know I'd be there if I could!!!

Unfortunately the paychecks-of-jack at the printers shipped the books a day late, and UPS is taking seven days to deliver instead of four. So, no books for sale this weekend. I'll still be at the table with Jeff with artwork from the game, on two panels, and we'll be running demo games all three days. I still have the PDF format on my laptop, and might burn off a few disks of that for sale, but our boss is still very uncomfortable with the possibility of it winding up all over the internet.

Whew!

Schedule updated to here.

How many of y'al will be Hotelling it? I will be at the Hilton starting Friday till Sunday afternoon, and hoping to find all the cool after parties that the Fan Groups throw at the hotel! :D

I considered trying to see if everyone wanted to attempt an R/F meet up at some point during the day, but methinks it would be ten times more difficult than the cat herding at Faire...so I scratched that idea.  Hehe...get it? CAT herding...SCRATCH... /snortlaugh.

*Squeeeeeee!!* I'm so excited!! SO much work to do on my costume, so little time left, but SO worth the stress and late hours working.

Will any of y'all be dressing up/Cosplaying?

Thought i'd share the character i'm attempting to replicate:

This is Isabela, the fiery Pirate/Rogue from Dragon Age 2
