Birmingham International Comic Show...  

Yeah yeah, I know that I'm at the Hope Falls launch party and all that, but where will I be during the weekend?

Well for the main bulk of it, I shall be at the Markosia table, signing copies of Hope Falls, Midnight Kiss and Starship Troopers. I'll also be signing anything else that's brought up to me, because I'm an attention loving whore. But, I'm also doing a couple of panels (and this is my panel schedule at the moment, last year it doubled ten minutes into the show opening...)

SATURDAY: 4.30pm - Room 1: The Kryptonite Factor.

This is the show's blub for it...

Once again Budgie Barnett, Ade Brown and special guests bring you another hour of lunacy and laughter in the ever popular comics quiz show!

Originally, I was going to be once more on Dave Gibbons' 'writers team', but with Budgie no longer able to make the convention, he's asked me to step into his shoes (must resist making foot jokes) and co-host the show instead with Ade Brown, to be the Bob Mortimer to his Vic Reeves.

Either way, it should be much fun, even if we'll all be mightly pissed that Budgie isn't there and a great way to end the first day of the show.

SUNDAY: 11.45am - Room 1: The Write Stuff.

This is the show's blub for it...

Think you've got what it takes to be a professional comics writer? Come along and give us your pitch for your story ideas. Host Tony Lee and his panel of experts will be the judge. Demand for this event will be high, if you wish to take part please contact: info@thecomicsshow.co.uk to register in advance. Places strictly limited.

I can't mention who the 'experts' will be yet, because a couple haven't confirmed. But I can say that one of them will be a DC editor, and I'm hoping Si Spurrier will come on as we were both on the last one, in London in 2004...

Next week, I'll be announcing my panel schedule for the London Expo...

Awesome :-)
I just hope that this time around I will be the one that gets to make it to the Talks instead of selling goods at the stand like last time - lol.

No-one stopped you... And I think The Kryptonite Factor will be after the stand will close for the evening. I think.

Oh, I was only joking, silly. Much as I did want to leave, I didn't want the stand to be left alone, and I did sell quite a lot during that period, I guess, because I get nervous and therefore hyperactive and attract more customers when left alone - lol. Which is really silly, but hey.
It was on at the end of the day last time, so hopefully... If not we can do what we did with Hypotheticals.
