Small Press Expo Pt II. This is the landmark first meeting of me and the folks from Interrobang Studios.

Sarah disputes my perspective on things. To quote her: “Are you going to show the bit at the reception where you boldly stride in by yourself and our cluster of friends is huddled around a table snarfing appetizers like they’re a main course, pretending we’re not all people who already know each other and are thus FAILING at ’small press mixer’?”

I still think I probably looked like a deer in headlights. I do remember for a fact one of the first things I said to Sarah was: “The only people I know how to deal with are in CMYK.”

However it actually went down… So far, they haven’t let go. Every con I’ve done South of the 49th has been with Kevin and Sarah and, of course, there was the infamous collaboration of Ensign Sue. I feel very thankful for the friendship I’ve gotten from that Mixer.
