This just in!

I've been trying to update my roller derby comic every Monday, but... there was just WAAAAAY too much derby goodness going on this weekend to finish a comic! In the meantime, please enjoy these pictures of a special present I got in the mail the other day...



My first copy of OLYMPIG!! Hot off the presses!



A REAL BOOK! With endpapers and everything!



And it has my favorite jacket treatment- matte lam & spot uv! (nerd alert). That's when part of the jacket is matte finish and parts of it are shiny. Like so:



Color me excited! And now I'm off to attempt making a book trailer. More on that soon, too- I hope.

    I finally go to see you in a bout Saturday! Along with a couple thousands in the house plus a few hundred of us online. Hope you had fun.

    And regarding book trailers, if you want some help, let me know. That's one of the things I do. I just finished one for a novel that comes out later this month.
