Next week, I'll be appearing at Maryland's SPX, the very cool comics show that brings together over 400 cartoonists and creators in a super intimate setting. I've never been, but apparently it's awesome, and I'm jazzed as heck to be goin'.

This will be the only east-coast appearance for me this year...and may be my last one until Fall 2008. So if you were hoping for a personalized sketch drawn in Eastern Standard Time...THIS IS YOUR CHANCE.

I'll be there for both days of the show: giving out free sketches, signing and selling books & original art, aaaaaand giving out 2007 Commemorative SPX High Fives (while supplies last).

All Sheldon original strips will be selling for $25 off -- so if you have a favorite strip you're dyin' to get, this is a good time. (Just make sure you e-mail me to ensure I bring your fave with me.)

The show runs Friday, Oct. 12 (2PM - 8PM), and Saturday, Oct. 13 (10AM - 7PM), and you can find me at the "Blank Label Comics" booth in the program...exhibiting next to Kris Straub, Brad "Wigwam" Guigar, Howard Tayler, and David Willis. Check the SPX site for more details!

(Also: what are people from Maryland called? "Marylanders"...? "Marylandians"...? "Marylandalucians"...?)
