Ode To A Borders Coupon

I got a 40% off Borders coupon in my email today. Oh coupon, there was once a time when your delicate, ephemeral, digital presence would bring a sliver of joy to my all too analog heart. The anticipation of buying some as yet unknown manga volume at a significant discount made it hard to think of much else. But alas, those days are a fading memory. For little coupon, I have no place left to use you. T_T

Anime Aftershocks Now On The iPad

My first eBook, Anime Aftershocks, is now on the iPad! I think the iPad is going to be an important place to be, so I’m pretty happy that the book is finally on sale in iBooks. It took some effort,which I wrote about in Publishing eBooks On The iPad, but I think will make it easier for me to publish future eBooks.

After playing around with digital comics on iPads as last weekend’s C2E2, I definitely want to get my own iPad as soon as I can. Despite issues with glare when reading in sunlight, I think the iPad is going to become the eBook and comic reader of choice. So it’s good to have my stuff there.

  • Okay, turns out no need to line up, you can go in. They're not clearing the room before the masquerade. #C2E2 #
  • I feel like such a meta-fan going to so many #C2E2 panels for things I know little about! Lol! XD What is Chuck?? #
  • Now waiting for masquerade to begin, a little surprised there are not more people here. That's okay though, should be interesting. #C2E2 #
  • Got a pic of a great Dr Who and Amy pair. Lots of Dr Who #cosplay at #C2E2 #

  • Finding the #C2E2 app mostly useful, but some of the web elements could be better integrated. #
  • So far so good! Had a great chat with comiXology about digital comics and manga. Getting some good #cosplay pics too! #C2E2 #
  • Visited Girls With Slingshots, yay! Now at daily #cosplay contest about to start. #C2E2 #

C2E2 2011 Day One

I just returned home from C2E2 and it’s probably a good sign that I’m hungry for more, quite literally. I’m waiting for a pizza to come as I write this. But seriously, I had fun. I got a good number of cosplay pics, though still not as much as you’d see at ACen or most anime cons. Still, I’m enjoying the comic con side of life quite a bit.

The center of a comic con like C2E2 is definitely the exhibit hall with the dealers and artist alley. Panels are not as big a component, but that’s cool. I’m taking advantage of that focus shift to spend more time talking to the artists and dealers, and of course buying stuff too! I had some great chats about the future of digital comics with the guys at comiXology and Dark Horse. And I met the author of Girls with Slingshots, Danielle Corsetto and got an autographed copy of volume one of her web comic. I also got this cool strip Scrabble poster for my wife, a huge Scrabble fan!

As for cosplay, I went casual, donning my Star Trek: TNG uniform. I snapped as many pics as I could manage without tying up traffic and I think I got a lot of good costumes. Still, I’d love to see even more cosplay, but I’m sure I’ll see that tomorrow. Friday is always less dense just because a lot of people have work and school.

Well gotta get that pizza now!
