Most of my SDCC photos are crappy snapshots taken on the move, but I'm glad this one came out halfway decent. The cosplayer (AZ Tony Stark) happened to walk by me on a lunch break and you couldn't NOT notice that suit.

Knock on wood, but I think I made it through SDCC and a six-hour flight diversion without getting covid. Shoutout to N95s.

I'll be at Comic-Con this year! I don't have a booth, but I'm looking forward to connecting with people I know, meeting new people, and seeing some great panels. I'll try not to be too obnoxious about plugging The Proofreader's Guide to Comic Book Style. #SDCC #SDCC2025

Great turnout in St. Paul today despite state patrol recommending that people stay home. I saw multiple signs in memory/support of Melissa Hortman and John Hoffman, though I didn't get any photos. #NoKings

Swung by @oddmartmn.bsky.social for this weekend's artist market. It's always a delight to see my book face-out on the front table when I'm there.

Just replenished the supply of my books at @oddmartmn.bsky.social! I love having this store as an outlet for in-person sales.

Had the chance to make a pysanka again this year. I missed some bits, but it came out better than I was afraid it would by the time I put it in the dye.

One of the highlights of Salt Lake has been the AMAZING Legendarium bookstore. If you love sci-fi and fantasy (especially queer SFF) and you're in SLC, you need to visit. #ACES2025

Views from yesterday's protest in Salt Lake City. I'm away from home for #ACES2025, but I took a break from the conference to show up, even if it was only for a bit.
