Denver Comic Con
Just wrapped up a great show at Denver Comic Con. This is our local show, and easier to pack up all the books and booth display for our table—but still a lot of work. Two vehicles fully loaded with boxes of books and setup materials—I drove one up, and WordFire Press managing editor Peter J. Wacks and his BLOODLETTING coauthor Mark Ryan drove the other. We set up the table on Thursday night and were ready to go for the launch on Friday!

My long-time friend (and fellow Superstars Writing Seminars founder) David Farland was also a guest at our table. Our team at WordFire Press had worked overtime to produce FIVE of Dave’s reissues, which we debuted at the con. Dave and I were on a panel about the Star Wars Expanded Universe as well as a panel on Tor Books and WordFire Press. I also did a panel with Peter Wacks and Steven L. Sears (exec producer of XENA) about a new documentary and fan film we’re working on. And I gave my popular “Building my first lightsaber” solo talk—to a completely full ballroom.

We had several volunteers helping us work the table, including Michelle Corsillo, Josh Vogt, Vivian Trask, Zoe Frasure, David Boop, and more. As we did at Dallas and Houston, we set up a place for fans to get their photos taken with me, and they got a free copy shared via my Official Kevin J. Anderson Page on Facebook. (At a venue where most celebrities charge $30 or more for a photo, they loved getting something free!) We took several hundred photos; here are a few samples. To see the rest, view the album on the Official Kevin J. Anderson page on Facebook
Next stop—FantasyCon and WesterCon 67 in Salt Lake City over the Fourth of July weekend!
