I'll be headed to the Tampa Comic Con tomorrow, my first full-sized con visit. If I'd had my kit together, I might have tried to get a table there. I'll still try to make connections.
BOLO! That's one of those trendy acronyms (be on the lookout). But it's also the name I decided on for the Big Foot comic I previously talked about as Dirty Animals. I'm talking about it again because it's something I can hopefully circle back around to soon. All I need is lettering done and I have eight sample pages to shop around. I had the art completed earlier this year, and then things went kind of screwy and I had to put the project in a holding pattern.
Obviously I had another existential crisis recently, but then I wrote a different comic book script earlier this week, a MillarWorld writing prompt challenge involving a Superman analog named Exemplar. I think it turned out well. Anyway, it's a full-length script that can easily be used as a writing sample, too. Between that and BOLO, I'm starting to feel a tad bit of confidence about the future again.
We'll see...
You'll still have a good time and be able to network. You can also scope out if it's worth it to get a table there next year.
ReplyDeleteHave a neat time high fiving celebrities - it really makes all the difference when one remembers your name.
