I am so excited to announce that I’ll be going to Seattle next month for the Emerald City ComiCon!
This is an awesome show, with a focus fucos on indie books and publishers. I think I’ll feel right at home, if I can keep myself from totally geeking out too much. (Yeah, who am I kidding?)
The schedule hasn’t been finalized, but I’ll be doing a performance from Happiest Days and maybe Just a Geek on Saturday, and I’ll be doing a more general Q&A about blogging, writing manga, being a geek, the burdens of being awesome, and writing humorous panel descriptions on Sunday.
I will have a booth to hang out in when I’m not empaneled, so I’m bringing copies of all my books, pictures to sign, and my glasses and my shoes, so I have them.
Details:
May 10-11
Emerald City ComiCon
Washington State Convention and Trade Center
Seattle, Washington.
As long as I have your temporary attention: I’m working on adding a convention in June to the 2008 Geektour. We’re like 99% of the way there, so I’ll blather on about it as soon as the last 1% is worked out.

I can’t wait! I finally get to buy my copy of Happiest Days! I was having PayPal troubles of my own when the hard copies mailed out so I totally missed the boat on that one… (So sad!) I guess this means I have to go both days after all!!!
Dude! I’m so there! At least on the 10th. If you feel like skipping out on the 11th for a bit, we could use in our softball lineup. 🙂
Hey, Wil, the Mariners are home the night of the 10th, they play right across the street form the convention site… WWDN group night? 🙂
Oops, wrong convention site. Still, it’s close.
We here on the East Coast are feeling a little left out:( Please come see us.
Have fun in Seattle!

Nice jerky boys reference… kindred, we.
Awesome. I look forward to seeing you there, since I missed you at PAX. I’ll be volunteering this year at ECCC.
dude! i’ll be there too! rock! i really want to meet you man. i swear i wont be too greasy and sweat all over you.
Man, and I thought I was the only one cursed with the burden of total awesomeness….
Now how about privileging Toronto with your presence…
And lo, the geekification of the WSCTC continues apace. 🙂 I may just have to be there this time!
Hi, Will!
Speaking of cons, would you drop me a note at chimaerapr at aol.com? I’d like to know what you’re asking these days besides airfare and hospitality.
We just completed Chimaeracon 2008, will start planning for Spring 2009 this month (April). Would be great to have you!
Thanks,

San Antonio, TX
PPS–That’s a great new photo on Eventful. I’m one of your demanders for San Antonio. If you go to Austin instead, I’ll recruit a car full of Chimaeracon /other fans for the 75-mile road trip.
Yay Your coming to my hometown. Well closeish anyway. If I can’t see you at the Grand Slam At least I can see you at my local con. I’ll be by to give you some shiney gold rocks for your new book.
I saw you speak in Phoenix in January, and I can’t help but think that you could start doing shows outside of cons -like Henry Rollins’ spoken word shows. I don’t know how you’d manage to get an agent to book the shows, you might have to create a few demo tapes, but I think it’s worth looking into.

I had no Idea you were a Naturalist…
Awesome! Will you have copies of the manga with you? I tried picking it up at Powell’s last weekend, but they were out…
S’about damn time!
Wil, what about Mother’s day on the 11th?
Confound it, I wasn’t going to go! Now I’m going to have to. *grumbles* I’m going to have to haul a lot of shiny rocks to this thing, aren’t I?
Welcome back! There will be Enforcers will be in attendance, and we look forward to seeing you again. 🙂
Wish I could go! It’s a long trip from Minnesota to Seattle, and I’m already flying out to Boston in July for Jumpcon. No chance you’ll be there too, is there?
Rats.
Hi Wil,
Any chance there’ll be a recording like you arranged for your Phoenix Cactus Comicon performance?
I know that you were considering Dragoncon, it’ll be a blast.
Seriously, you know you want to judge the Miss Klingon Kontest. I can see you on a number of panels from the comic books, podcasts, writing trek and of course, the Trek Track, you know you’ll have a blast.
oh. man.
I have not attended a comic con in years, but this is the perfect excuse!
Awesome. I’ll actually be at the con myself for the first time in ages. I’ll be the transsexual in a “Joss Whedon is My Master Now” t-shirt and black nail polish.
