SPX 2008

Awesome! That’s my con wrap-up report from this year’s Small Press Expo in Bethesda MD. My lovely wife Jane did a bang-up write up, so in the interest of piggy-backing on her hard work, here’s her convention report.
The specifics of my con experience overlapped Jane’s; great sales, really positive feedback on current projects and meeting new fans in unexpected places. Mine took place mostly in meeting DJs who also like comics! A number of fans introduced themselves to me as DJs who were glad to see a book about their music and life. I met a pod of local Washington DC DJs who spun in local clubs within the very active and diverse DC scene, one I know of and respect. DC has always had a great club scene, so the possibility of getting BPM in front of these folks is a huge plus! I spent as much time talking about music as I did talking about comics, which is fine by me.
And to walk away from a con with table and airfare paid for (plus a little bit more) is just mind-boggling.
