A brief programming note, I will be out tomorrow and Friday for ComicCon in San
Diego and will be running posts of yore along with art of yore.
If you’re going to be
attending ComicCon, I hope to see you at one or two of both of my panels.
First up, I’m going to be moderating the panel
“What’s Hot in Young Adult Fiction,” featuring the wildly awesome authors Andrea Cremer,
Amanda Hocking,
Tahereh Mafi, Stephanie Perkins,
Laini Taylor, and Kiersten White at 10am on Sunday.
And I’m going to be
on the panel “Writing for the Middle Grade” at 1:45 on Sunday.
There
will be autograph sessions after each panel and books for sale and all the rest. And no, I will not be in costume, unless you consider “mild-mannered author” attire a costume.
Hope to see you there!
ComicCon is one of those things I've "always wanted" to attend, so I'm exceptionally jealous of anyone getting to go.
Enjoy. I hope the panel goes well.
I SOOOO wish I could be at the YA panel. It sounds amazing. Crazy amazing. I'm officially jealous of all who get to see it.
Have fun there!
It sounds amazing! I'm so insanely jealous of anyone who can go…*sigh*
Have fun! I'm sure you'll have a great time.
Enjoy ComicCon!
Hope you'll share some of the best moments with those of us who aren't able to be there.
One of my friends attends this on occasion and she usually goes in costume.
As the first poster said, I've always wanted experience ComicCon too. I wouldn't mind meeting Nathan Bransford either. Seems like a cool guy. 😀
Tell Tahereh I said hi.
Is this an old blog or do they have this more than once a year? Just curious…and I would like to go. Lucky you who live close!
[The word verification is "liesson." Could that be a lesson taught with a lie?]
Oooh, count me in the totally jealous category. Have fun!
I used to exhibit my artwork at the ComicCon every year. It was a great experience.
Btw, have you not considered the WonderCon? It's in San Francisco, afer all.
Look up there! Is it a bird? Is it a plane! No! It's MILD-MANNERED AUTHOR!
But what costume do you rip off to reveal the mild-mannered author costume?
'…at one or two or both of my panels.'? Not unless one or two or both of us have the gift of bilocation. Or maybe time travel. Like Hermione Granger. But it IS a COMIC-Con! So anything's possible.
How about posting a pic when it's all over?
ComicCon sounds so cool! So wish I could go!
Have fun – I know you'll have a terrific time and have a blast with the panel moderation!
Wish I could be there, too! I hope you have a fantastic time 😀
Have fun and take photos. We who are locked and chained to our keyboards look forward to them 🙂
I would sooo like to go to Comic Con someday. Have fun at your panels.
I'll be there! Will try to make Saturday panel!
That YA panel sounds intriguing! Wish I could be there. Take lots of photos, we are dying to see them!
I'm still hoping my fairy godmother is going to swoop in with tickets to ComicCon at the last minute. I won't wear a glass slipper, though–my feet have enough problems already.
I'd give my right arm to be able to attend ComicCon, but I don't type so well with my left arm. (Also not sure which Nathan I'd rather run into there – Bransford or Fillion…hmmmm)
ComicCon! Rock on! Have a great time.
So envious, and both panels would be something I'd check out. Please post when you get back on what you experienced.
I can be slow on the up-take. I don't know what Comic-con is…
Wish I could be there. Have fun.
Hi Nathan, Sorry if you've mentioned this already. Do you know the capacity of the room for your Sunday YA panel at ComicCon? I'm hoping it's one of the bigger rooms but having a hard time finding out from the CC map. Thank you.
