So, TCAF happened this past weekend!! It was great and exhausting and amazing and I seriously don't know how I survided to tell the tale. I'd been away from cons for so long now, that I've forgotten just how much they flatten me. LIKE A PANCAKE. I spent most of this week just sleeping, I have such respect for people who do cons on a regular basis...
Anyway, long story short, Bento Comics had our little table at TCAF again (with Leisl Adams, Dennis Lo and Dan Hess HAY GUYS) and my good art buddy Tacto and I did a Sherlock Holmes mini-comic together! We each did a story and then I used power tools to assemble the actual comic.
You probably think I am kidding, but I am not.
Here is the final result, I love the way it turned out, hand-made books are a bit of an obsession of mine (but then again, who doesn't love them?! ...If it's you, we can't be friends D8)
Tacto has been posting the pages of her amazing story "The Unsettling Case of Ms Sutem" on her DeviartArt here and I will be posting my silly little thing over the next few days on mine. Also attempting to cross-post to Tumblr and Twitter for the first time ever, I apologize in advance for any glitches which will certainly be not my fault but the Internet's. Do things right, Internets! *shakefist*
I will be back with Page 2 of The Amazing Case of Maria Potemkina tomorrow in case anyone wants to read more, stay tooooned
~poof~

Svet will be in Houston on April 26th!
Hi, guys, quickie note--if anyone's in Houston, TX this April 26th, I will be there, too, come to TeenBookCon to see meeeeeeee! The fabulous creators Jillian Tamaki and Mariko Tamaki, who are amazing and the creators of "Skim", they will be there also and we're totally doing a panel together and I will likely embarrass myself geeking out over them. There will also many other amazing authors presenting! The event is free to attend and you can find the information here: TeenBookCon!
Yaaaaaay!!!
Of marketing and creators.
Really interesting and thought-provoking entry by Moonie-Dreamer (https://www.deviantart.com/moonie-dreamer) on marketing one's work:
https://moonie-dreamer.deviantart.com/journal/Marketing-Yourself-as-an-Artist-429095305
I posted in the comments there, but wanted to archive this in my Journal Entries for future reference, as well as give a heads up to people interested in the topic. It's certainly an important one!! This is less actual for people with a dependable 9 to 5 job, but for a freelance artist it's a must to consider these things, since you never know which of your promotional efforts will get you a job (or which won't). For example, I never would have gotten the TOKY
Svet's in Sacramentoooooo
I made it! I'm alive! ...I have a headache, stoopid jetlag *cue copious amounts of Advil and coffee*
Re-posting the schedule info post from my Facebook everywhere, sorry if you see this more than once :D;;;

Okay, so I have my info for SacAnime!

Svet is a guest at SacAnime this January!
NEWS ITEM: I will be a guest at SacAnime in Sacramento, California this coming January 3-4! I will be running a couple of panels and I believe will have a table, as well—so if you ever wanted something signed by me and live in the area, come by and visit! Convention information can be found here: http://www.sacconventions.com/
I also made a special art print for the convention, a re-draw of that Alex/Sohrem scene in book 2 of "Nightschool: The Weirn Books"--I finally got it looking more like I see it in my head!!
