First off, I want to thank everyone who came out for Baltimore Comic-Con and Long Beach Comic-Con these past two weekends -- you guys made them awesome. Getting the chance to meet folks face-to-face is the best part of my year, and I always look forward to it.

Since Baltimore was the last of my ten appearances for 2009, I thought I'd mention the 2010 conventions I have lined up so far:

- SAN FRANCISCO: Wondercon (April 2-4)

- CALGARY: Calgary Expo (April 24-25)

- SAN DIEGO: SDCC (July 22-25)

But! Here's the deal: We can easily expand that list! I'll happily come to any convention that has me out as a guest. All you need to do is e-mail your local convention and suggest they have me out. It really is that simple: They *want* feedback like that. That's how the Calgary appearance came about, for example. So drop a line to your local convention: Let's get Sheldon out to your neck of the woods!
