I’m leaving for ConnectiCon this afternoon to get set up for tomorrow’s opening. As I wrote at length on Tuesday’s blog, ConnectiCon is a hugely important and exciting show for me on both a professional and personal level. It’s also where I host the Cosplay Death Match. The Cosplay Death Match is the highlight of … Continue reading “Stage Fright”
This weekend I return to my favorite convention. This weekend I will play host for the main event of the convention weekend, which I helped to build. This weekend I get to see Garth in person again, which is always a treat. It’s time for ConnectiCon! ConnectiCon is the only convention I have attended every … Continue reading “Countdown to ConnectiCon”
Yesterday’s update was the 600th page of The Legacy of Dominic Deegan, and it signaled the beginning of the end of Snout’s story. His time as the protagonist of this comic is coming to a close, and it will be time to transition to a new format once things wrap up. That new format will … Continue reading “Dwarves of Kadaz”
When my wife and I were looking to buy a house around eight years ago, we saw some nightmare properties. One was literally a drug den and I’m surprised we made it out of there in one piece. There was another significantly less frightening house that was merely messy, but its basement was in rough … Continue reading “My Horrible Basement”
At AwesomeCon a few weeks ago there were some very nice people who had some very nice things to say about The Legacy. There were also some very nice people who had some critiques for it, and were very nice about offering them. There weren’t many, but the few critiques said approximately the same things: … Continue reading “I’d Rather Fail For Being Too Weird”
As I sit down to write this blog I’ve just come off my weekly remote tabletop roleplaying game sessions with my friends and holy shit the dice were unkind to me tonight. None of my big value spells hit their targets, so bye-bye to those spell slots. My spells that didn’t require attack rolls gave … Continue reading “Those Nights The Dice Don’t Like You”
This weekend I turn 44 years old. The Legacy of Dominic Deegan will turn four years old on the same day. I launched The Legacy on my fortieth birthday. It was a milestone birthday so I figured it would be the perfect time to return to the comic that launched my two-decade career. Sharing its … Continue reading “The Legacy’s Fourth Anniversary”
A few months ago during a visit to my family they suggested that I consider doing a podcast. They had very nice things to say about my speaking voice and ability (and affinity) for telling stories. I considered what they had to say, and was even told again to consider it during a more recent … Continue reading “Why I Won’t Podcast”
There was no blog entry on Tuesday of this week because I got home from AwesomeCon too late the night before, and I was very tired from a long weekend of travel. And what an eventful weekend it was. It began with my train being delayed thirty minutes only an hour after it got going. … Continue reading “My Memorable Trip to AwesomeCon”
I have a love affair with train rides. I’m taking a long train ride from Massachusetts down to AwesomeCon later today (so I can be there for setup and opening early on Friday) and back again on Monday. It’s an eight-hour ride, the same as if I were to make the trip in a car. … Continue reading “Long Train Runnin’”
