IndyPlanet has a copy of The Locked Maze: Book 1 for $3.50 + s/h: www.indyplanet.com/store/produ…!
The preview copy I bought was very nice, although the paper is a bit thin. They explained that their printer is choking on the thicker glossy paper right now, but once they iron that out I will switch my comic over to that. But in the meantime, thinner paper = cheaper comic! And there's a color cover and afterword.
I am almost done replacing all the work I lost last week when SketchBookPro ate my file and spit it out at 0k. And then I wasted 5 hours trying to recover it (My advice: don't bother. Lots of programs claiming to be able to save files -> zero programs can save files). I had a lot of mandatory excursions this weekend (including an **8** hour company party) so I didn't finish it on Sunday, and then on Monday I had to get caught up on laundry. But TONIGHT-! Tonight I will finish!
And however hectic and miserable December always is for me, I keep reminding myself that I have 5 solid days without work coming up and I will get to do LOTS of comics pages then. Or at least, say, 2 extra. 'Cause I'm slow.

SDCC 2012: Recap and Sale
I think the biggest highlight for me was meeting the creator and the writer of my secret project, who were THE NICEST people I have ever met. Seriously, they took me for ice cream. Admittedly, I can't have ice cream, but there was apple juice, and it was just such a lovely little break from everything else. We shared stories and photos (and some video) of our cats. LOL. I wish I could say names. *sigh*
The deviantArt booth was pretty tightly packed and as such it was not possible for me to hang out next to my display and meet people. It was also tucked away back behind all the exciting computer displays, so if you missed it, and me, th
WooHoo! SDCC2012
Correction: I got a California temporary sellers permit, so I am pretty sure that means I can sell comics at SDCC. So if you are at SDCC on Thursday and come by the deviantArt table, you may be able to buy one! :D

If you haven't heard yet, I am going to SDCC this year:

I am scheduled for Thursday only, and I won't be selling anything (permit issues and all), but I will have a (half) table and you can come by and say hi. :DDD
Being excited is currently fighting with being hugely anxious, but hey, condolulations to me! ;)

2011 holiday cards on Storenvy: http://mleiv.storenvy.com/collections/46062-greeting-cards
I am always hesitant to advertise my store, mostly because issues of stocking and shipping and worrying about quality keep me up at night. But I ordered some cards to sell at GeekFest ( http://www.sbcharities.org/events/geekfest ) and I thought I'd put them up on storenvy for a few weeks, since I still have some time to reorder in the unlikely event I run out of something.
I also put up some Maze charms: http://mleiv.storenvy.com/products/185156-oak-leaf-charms (although I need better photos). I have a bunch of other glass charms I

Just now got the package with your comic. How odd it is to see your pages, on actual pages! Very, very lovely. I hope all will be will, and all will be well.
