A big thank you to new BookLikes followers! :) I hope you enjoy it here as much as I do!

Things:

I'm still setting up all things Charm School (am up to digital comic #4, need to work on new pages for Charm School Graphique Vol One--the 'ex-libris', title page, etc), and darn it, but the Dark Victorian short story has not been worked on for 4 days now. :(

I also remembered that March 7-9th is FOGcon: http://fogcon.org/

FOGcon is "Friends of the Genre", a literary science fiction/fantasy convention happening in the San Francisco Bay Area, and James Tiptree Jr is spectral guest of honour this year! :----(

"Why the long face, Elizabeth?" I'm glad you asked. I can't go! There's too much to do, and my gallivanting means nothing gets done (as proven by my events schedule of 2013). To miss out on the ghost of James Tiptree Jr makes me sad however. waaah! :-(

But my good friends and steampunk writers, Emily Thompson (Clockwork Twist series), and Janice T. (Echoes: Neo-Victorian Poetry), will be there and are kind enough to exhibit my books alongside theirs! Thank you, ladies! ^_^

I was so distracted by the ghost of James Tiptree Jr I forgot to say: I also recalled that I needed to make new promo freebies for FOGcon, especially with Charm School relaunching. Thus the 2x6 bookmark designs you see here. One bookmark, two franchises. ;) Everything seems legible and spelt correctly (I hope), and the batch order is now in.

More later, as there are several projects going---including the photoshoot for the new Dark Victorian covers (have I mentioned this already?). I will do a blog post about it.

all the best, ~eee ^v^

"APE, the Alternative Press Expo, returns to the Concourse Exhibition Center in San Francisco the weekend of October 12 and 13, 2013."

AND Clockwork Twist by Emi Thompson, The Dark Victorian series by (me!) Elizabeth Watasin, and ECHOES by Janice T., will be there! 

At Table 218, in the Mezzanine! Come up, because we are offering STeampunk bundled specials and freebies. < < < !!!

Confession: I won't be there due to foot recovery. APE looks to be a very busy show (having grown over the years), and it does take lots of stamina and foot traveling and standing. So I must thank my table compatriots for putting my books out and slinging them at you! Please WELCOME Janice and Emi to their first Alternative Press Expo. :-0 And help them out by pointing peeps their way, because we've lots of steampunk and neo-Victorian offerings to share!

meanWHILE: The lovely Kate Danley will be at Big Orange Book Festival this Fri, Sat, and Sunday with her Maggie MacKay, Magical Tracker series and more!

My good friend and fellow indy comics creator Jimmie Robinson will be at New York Comic-Con, also this weekend, as well as friends Curls Studio! (do I know their table/booth locations? I've forgotten!!!).

I've more friends you can see at APE, like BAND (the Comic book!), whose table # I don't know yet, and Bruce Simon and Mary Fleener of underground and indy comics fame, whose table # I also don't know! (terribly efficient of me!).

Myself, I'll be home Writing. Why not, someone has to do it. :D
