As you can see, the Beanstalk Incident MAY not have been all Jack’s fault. NO WARNING LABELS!!

I really was smiling.

We had such a great time at STAPLE this weekend. I truly couldn’t have done the 8-hour show without my helpers. Meet the goblins, Alex and Hannah! (Husband Michael is behind the camera, but there’s a pic of the whole crew in the album.)

We arrived early enough to have plenty of time and room to set up just right. Check out the new banner in front of the table. The frame holding it was pieced together by hubby using PVC pipe.  I think he did a great job.

Here is a list of some of my highlights of the show:

THERE’s NO COMIC FOR FRIDAY because I spent my drawing time getting ready for STAPLE!!!!

Staple is THIS SATURDAY in Austin. Click the image here for all the info. If you are going to be in town at the Expo, please be sure to come by Table 67 in “The Hall” to say hello!  I will have copies of SUGAR NINJAS and the Life’s a Witch mini-comic Cold Hands Warm Heart to sell (featuring some recent strips).

I’ll also have free comic samples to take home to your friends and family so that you may introduce them to the magical goodness of webcomickry.

Also, I’ll be doing sketch cards during the down time. These will be like the mini sketches in the slideshow in the sidebar and done on postcard-sized cardstock.

You know I’ll be taking pictures and being all fan-girly (oh yes, us “mature” women can still get fangirly) and will share all the details with my fellow comic creators! Watch for updates.

I will also twitter from the show and post some twit pics. (These will be from my phone to my personal twitter account. My personal tweets are listed under the bird-twitter button in the sidebar of the Life’s a Witch site, for those of you who don’t tweet.) All of this assumes I remember to charge my phone and then remember to bring it to the expo.

See you in the expo-afterglow on Sunday!

Today, February 1st, is Hourly Comic Day! Comickers from all over make a little one panel comic of something they did every waking hour on February 1st. I have a stack of index cards on my desk and will do a quickie comic each hour. If I’m away from my desk, I’ll bring cards with me and at least jot down something that happened during the hour. When I upload the comics, they will be added to the slideshow below.  This is the first time I’ve participated in Hourly Comic Day and I’m interested to see how the day goes in comics!

Well, I don’t have any drawing from life to show this week, but I did sketch out ideas for Friday’s comic in the sketchbook.
