Now that it’s been a couple days, Britt and I are finally recovering from HeroesCon. It’s a wonderful convention, but the drive back on Sunday is always brutal. We did very well this year — meeting lots of new fans, telling people about Snow by Night, and even making some sales. Thank you to everyone who stopped by out table. If you are joining us for the first time, welcome! Britt and I hope you enjoy the story. I took some pictures at the convention. You can find them on Snow by Night’s Facebook page. Go check them out. While there, give us a like on Facebook. We do love to be liked.
We also met a lot of other great artists. We had the pleasure of sitting next to Shazzbaa of Runewriters, who was sharing a table with Sarah Shaw. We also met Tess Cooper of Little Forkers and Rachel Deering of Anathema, as well as several great illustrators Jason Axtell, Justin Gerard, and Michael Watkins. Several of our old friends where there with new books — Jen Z. Smith of LaSalle’s Legacy, Elaine Corvidae of Riven Sol, and Chris Flick of Capes & Babes.

June 24th, 2012Hello everyone! I’m writing this from the Panera outside the Charlotte Convention Center. Brittany and I are still down at HeroesCon. We have one more day of show to do before heading back to Virginia. My thanks to Diane for covering for me on Friday while I was on the road, even in the midst of a personal emergency. My thoughts are prayers with you and your friend, Diane.

Chapter 4 Page 19 is posted. Jassart and the guard face off. Well, not really. This isn’t a duel and Jassart takes every advantage he can. To see a peek at what happens next, vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.
HeroesCon is this weekend. Britt and I will be there with chapter books for Chapters 1 through 3, as well as prints of Blaise and Jassart (Mathilde and Snow-by-Night are coming soon), the alchemical rifle from Chapter 2, and a set of glyphs of the four elements. Heroescon is pretty big so I’ve prepared the following handy dandy map to help you find us.

Diane has been kind enough to add a new section to our Extras page. Press! Snow by Night got a review from Narrative Investigations reviewed Snow by Night a few months ago, and this week, Brittany and I sat down with the Webcomic Beacon to discuss news in comics.
Heroescon is rapidly approaching. Brittany and I will be down for the show at Table AA-23. We’ll have the brand new books for Chapter 3 (as well as Chapters 1 and 2), brand new prints, and some new buttons. We’ll be getting these all up on the online store (which is in progress) too, but until then, come buy them from us in person.

Summer convention season is almost upon us. Our first convention this year is Heroescon down in Charlotte on June 22-24. Come by and see us if you’re attending.
Almanac – Pénélope Gâteau
May 3rd, 2012This week’s Almanac entry is Pénélope Gâteau, the maid of Cienan yr Tuathal. She is a spunky young woman who was teasing Blaise back in chapter 2 and then appeared on pages 2 and 3 of this chapter. I was going to post her entry last week, but discussing the pillory seemed more important.
If you live up in New England, I have good news. Snow by Night got a table in the Artist Colony at Connecticon on July 13-14. Yes, Connecticon’s artist alley is called an artist colony. Since we’re colonial fantasy, I had to go.

Pittsburgh Comicon was a great time. This convention treated its artists well. We got a draped-off area that gave us plenty of space. The con staff came by with water bottles and sandwiches. It was some incredible bang for our buck. We also met some great artists. Franks and Beans were our neighbors to one side. They run Wagon Wheel Comics and publish the engaging and fast-paced Teddy and the Yeti. To our other side was John Haun, a brilliant illustrator and sketch artist. Next to John was 8th Day Anime, who does some incredible anime illustrations. Oh, Stan Lee was there, signing his new Romeo & Juliet book. That booth was literally 50 feet from ours so I got a picture of him then watched as he walked by our table a couple times (he didn’t notice us, alas). For 89 years old, he’s in incredible health and owns whatever room he’s in. To see pictures of all this, visit our Facebook page.
