NYCC 2011: The Info Post! Come see me!
By Irma on October 8th, 2011Posted In: news
Here we go! NYCC is only FIVE DAYS AWAY! SO it’s about time I give you my info so you know where and when to find me!
So let’s go….
WHERE?
Javits Convention Center, NYC, NY, USA, Planet Earth, Sector ZZ9 Plural Z Alpha… If you hit Betelgeuse, you’ve gone to far.
I’ll be at table P5 in Artist’s Alley. I’ll be sitting with the folks over at Webcomics Alliance, and sharing my table with Antoine Gagnon of Drunken Fools. The other WA people are Dawn Griffin of Zorphbert & Fred and Ken Drab of Rick the Stick who’ll be at table P6 right next to us!
Here is a map with my table marked on it. The cool thing is that if you go into the NYCC website and look up the interactive map, you can actually put my name in the search and find me! So cool! But, anyway, click the image below to see it in full size.
WHEN?
NYCC weekend: October 13-16. I’ll be there Friday, Saturday & Sunday during public hours. I won’t be doing the preview day on Thursday. I can’t be more specific than that really. A few things though: I may be late to my table, or I may have to leave a little early on any of these days. I’m not saying I will be, I’m just saying it’s a possibility. So if you really plan on coming to my table, try to come in the earlier to mid portion of those days. If I’m not there, just ask Antoine, Dawn or Ken and they’ll tell you when I’ll be back. Or I’ll put up a sign about it on my part of the table.
If you’re coming to see me, drop me a line here, or in email or on FB or twitter and let me know around when you think you’ll make it.
But the plan is to be there as much as possible during all open hours.
WHAT AM I SELLING?
The most important items at my table are going to be Imy Vol 1.0 & the NEW Imy Vol 2.0 (You can buy yours now over HERE if you’re not going to NYCC).

I’ll also have with me a bunch of the stuff I’m selling over at the Etsy shop, including the buttons. And I’ll have bookmarks to give away.
ALSO: Sharing a part of my table will be Tom Racine of Tall Tale Radio and GeekPapas selling his hilarious BookSmarts book and possibly some other goodies!
I think that pretty much covers it. I really hope to see a bunch of you there! I’m so excited! And if you dont’ know my tablemates’ work, make sure you take a look at their sites as well. They are: Dawn Griffin of Zorphbert & Fred and Ken Drab of Rick the Stick
And now I leave you with this hilarious, yet slightly disturbing, cartoon drawn by Antoine (my tablemate) of Drunken Fools. Enjoy!

See you in FIVE DAYS!
The book is being printed RIGHT NOW. Along with a whole new batch of Vol 1.0! And not a moment too soon. I’m cutting it a bit close, aren’t I?
They will be for sale at NYCC 2011 next month! And then the rest will be put up on the site. I will be posting within the next week with all the info about NYCC.
But now, back to the beach with me!
While I struggle with trying not to overwork myself, which currently leads to a lighter flow of Imy strips (which, trust me, I truly hate that I have to temporarily hold back on my normal schedule), I am working as much as I can. Currently it’s on the new “Imy” book which will first be available at NYCC this October and then later through the site. It will contain strips #101-200 and a bunch of cool extras. But until them I’ll just give you a little peek at the cover…
All shall be revealed soon!
So it’s official. I will be a part of 2 conventions this year, just like last year, and I’ve already got my tables at BOTH of them!
SPX 2011
The first is coming up VERY soon right here in Stockholm, Sweden. It will be my 3rd year at SPX, and I’m so excited! This year I’m going with my Volume 1, my first REAL book, and I’m very curious to see how it will go.
I will have more information on SPX very soon (where you can find me, etc.), but for now I’ll just give you this:
Location: Stockholm’s Kulturhuset
Dates: May 7th & 8th, 11:00-18:00
Website: http://www.kulturhuset.stockholm.se/default.asp?id=3191&refid=37250&ptid=
(English link): http://www.kulturhuset.stockholm.se/default.asp?id=5760&domain=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kulturhuset.stockholm.se%2F&url=default.asp%3Fid%3D37250
NYCC 2011
There’s still 6 months to go until this one so I don’t have much info for this right now, except that I HAVE my table! I plan on having Volume 2.0 for this one, but it’s too early to tell anything right now except the dates!
Location: Jacob K. Javits Center
Dates: Friday, Sat & Sun
Website: http://www.newyorkcomiccon.com/
I hope to see some of you guys at either of these. I love meeting readers! More information on both coming as soon as I get it!
Well.. THAT was a whirlwind. A WONDERFUL whirlwind! But… wait… stop… can we rewind a little.. that went too fast!!!!
I’ll start by saying the best part about the whole weekend was meeting all these wonderful webcomic people who’ve I’ve had contact with for a while on twitter and through our websites. I got to meet two Tall Tale Features brothers, Tom Racine and Mike Witmer. I got the meet the super-talented Marc LaPierre and super-fun Dawn Griffin. I got to meet John McCarthy who’s been a huge help in putting together my book and Tyler Durden (aka Brad Joyce), who you’ll see comment on almost every comic here, and his comic partner in crime Brad Snyder! And I met so many more and everyone was SO GREAT.

Hey guys!!! I got my schedule already!! Kick ass! So here we go. These are the times you will ABSOLUTELY find me at the Th3rd World Table (map posted below once again in case you need it)
FRIDAY 12PM -2PM, 4-5:30PM
SATURDAY 10AM-12:00PM
SUNDAY 10AM-12PM, 4-5PM
Those are the times I’ll be there DEFINITELY. That doesn’t mean I might not be around during the “off” times. So it never hurts to check. But those are the times you will ABSOLUTELY find me.
I’ll have “Imy: Vol. 1.0″, some freebies, I may draw ya something too
I’m also bringing my watercolors that haven’t been sold yet, and some other small things (pins probably, for example).
Here’s where I am, once again:
Still make sure to check twitter and facebook in case there are any changes. But otherwise it looks like we’re set! WOO!
SEE YOU THERE!!
YEAH BABY. It’s here! Well, not here. It’s somewhere in a family member’s house in NJ. But it EXISTS! A box FULL of Imy Vol 1.0! WOO!!! Even if the other things I ordered don’t arrive for NYCC, I’m SET. I can’t believe it. For a while I was afraid I wouldn’t finish the book, honestly. But it worked out! I can’t wait to have a copy in my hands, and to get to NYCC and start selling. WOO!
If, by some crazy miracle, I end up selling out at NYCC (I know you all needed a laugh, so there is is), then I will be placing a new order while in the US so I’ll receive a new shipment as soon as I get back to Sweden. So, no matter what, I’ll be selling them here on the site in November.
WOO!!

So! NYCC is getting closer and closer! I’m so excited and NERVOUS! Nervous because I’m just hoping everything works out with my merchandise and so on. But one thing’s for sure, I CAN’T WAIT!
So here’s the deal – I don’t have my own table. Mike Witmer & the folks over at Th3rd World Studios were generous enough to offer up a sliver of table for lil ole me. So if you go searching for me at the NYCC website, you won’t find me. Look for Th3rd World, and that’s where I’ll be!
Here let me help you out… (click for larger)
Ta-dah!! I’ll probably post this again just before the con. But I’m too excited to wait until just then!!
I hope i’ll be seeing some of you there!
