Gush Post – Kansas City Comic Convention
Good afternoon to all four people who read this blog with consistency! Hah, just messing. It’s more like 30 at this stage, but I digress. I AM ATTENDING MY FIRST COMIC CONVENTION AS A BOOK SELLER. Granted, not my books,…
Beyond Limits – Part 2
It’s odd, being in the position I’m in. Technically, I’m still employed. As in, I can log into my computer, access my email, and interact with my co-workers. At the same time, I’m essentially a marked man. My last day…
