Jim at Phoenix ComiCon - June 5-8

[EyeballKid]

I think that he was getting too many questions from too many different angles, everything from comparing Buffy the Musical to Dr. Horrible's Sing a Long Blog to which three fictinal characters he'd like to spend time with (I totally nailed this one. I said, "Lara" just seconds before Jim gave the same answer.  If you asked him that one on one and he had time to think about it, I'm sure he would have more ideas.

Yeah, that's true, there was a huge variety of questions. Having gone to the signing on Thursday and watching every YouTube video of past Q&A's, I really appreciated the diversity. It was a fun crowd. There's only so many times you can hear, "Did you really plan 20 books from the beginning? Do you play the Dresden RPG? Will we see the Jade Court?"

I agree with that part - I was glad to hear different kinds of questions. But I don't know how any of these authors are running from panel to panel to signing to event, all while answering questions and talking to people who come up at the end of the panel. Jim's been super gracious and engaging throughout. Kudos to them all!!

[Priscellie]

I haven't heard anything about that. I got a couple of books signed today. That was fun. I finally got to meet (as in "Hi. Nice to finally meet you. Goodbye.) Priscellie. Of course I'm going to have to change my name to Aahz now so she'll know who I am.

There's a costume shop in LA called "Aahs." The first few times my sister mentioned it, I always thought it was called "Oz." My brain must've started overcorrecting itself.

[OZ]

Lol. That makes sense. I was afraid you might be referring to the character Aahz from the old MythAdventure books by Robert  Asprin and Jody Lynn Nye. He was a demon from the Perv dimension.

I never made it back to the convention today. Too bad. I would have liked to attend the panel on writing Rogues. I am not all that interested in writing rogues but it looked like a really fun group of authors.

btw Priscillie I have a lot better stories if you ask me about dogs.

Thank you. That was the one panel that I really regretted missing. It was great.

Did anyone get video of the spotlight or the "Comedy's Hard" Panel?

Wanted to throw out a thank you to Jim for signing my reproduction of Bob on Saturday morning.

I co-manage the Phx Comicon Fright House and used him in our witch room as part of the display. Thought I'd share a pic.
Can everyone see the easter egg I threw in as well ?

I had a blast. I'm glad I managed to make it to one of the signings and recieved nothing but complements on my attempt at a Maeve cosplay.

Your Maeve cosplay was awesome! I got a photo here: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10101266990123437&set=a.10101266989384917.1073741835.607970&type=3&theater
