Several people have asked my SDCC schedule and whatnot so I thought I would do a quick post on events I am going to be at over the next 2 weeks or so.
San Diego Comic Con (sort of)
My trip to SDCC actually doesn’t involve SDCC proper. My weekends are filled up with personal projects but I couldn’t miss at least popping in to see all my friends who are arriving there. I get in on Wednesday the 20th, have a couple of events on Thursday, then I fly out Friday. Here’s my schedule on the 21st:
10am Tweetup with Major Nelson, Zac Levi of NBC’s “Chuck”, and me to kick off Nerd Quest! It’s at NERDHQ (Jolt’n Joes, corner of 4th and J street) More info here:

Expect me and Major Nelson to do our usual thing, and who knows what surprises we will bring. Plus we get to be guests of Zac Levi and the Nerdmachine crew. So that’s pretty cool. You should come and say hi!
6pm W00tstock 3.0! (Note: I will not be performing, but will be there!) I really can’t wait for this because it’s shaping up to be one of the best w00tstocks ever. Confirmed guests are: Amy Berg, Ernest Cline, Molly Lewis, Rifftrax, John Roderick, Jason Finn, Mike Phirman and of course Adam Savage, Wil Wheaton, and Paul & Storm. HOW CAN YOU POSSIBLY NOT GO TO THAT? The answer is you must go. You simply must. But it’s dangerous to go alone, you’ll need these.
Then just like that *poof* I fly out Friday back to Seattle. My flight’s in the late afternoon however so I hope to at least pop my head into various and sundry SDCC related things before I fly out. Note that due to logistics and the fact I’m not performing I will NOT be bringing any books with me for sale. However if you have purchased a copy of my book and will be at any of the events I will happily sign it for you for frees yo. As always if you see me and just want to say hi please do so!

Redmond Association of Spokenword
I’m very excited to be doing a reading at the Redmond Association of Spokenword on Friday, July 29th at 7pm at the Old Redmond Schoolhouse Community Center. I plan to read two sections from my book, as well as discuss the writing process and publishing process. I will have copies of the hardback edition of my book for purchase ($25) and will be doing a free signing as well. If you are local to Seattle please drop on by and say hello, I’d love to meet you!
