This weekend was NY Comic Con. Which means it was fabulous.
Publishers were set up at their booths, most of them advertising upcoming and current titles. Like this one:
Personal Demons by Lisa Desrochers
People played video games.
The Ugly Dolls were there.
And I was seduced by the Ugly Corn.
This guy was there too.
The Mer Bear was sitting in her chair in the shark's lair, but I brought her back a souvenir.

Five Random Things About Suzie
1. I drink so much orange soda, it's probably running through my veins. I've been known to go through a twelve pack of diet sunkist in a day.
2. I'm legitimately nocturnal (or a vampire). I will be so exhausted at two pm that I'm falling asleep standing up - it has happened before, at Six Flags no less - but as soon as the sun goes down I'm wide awake.
3. I have a gorgeous unused $6000 Reem Acra wedding dress hanging in my closet, and it showed up on my doorstep the same day my (now ex) fiance broke up with me. And thank God for that. I wouldn't have wanted to waste that dress on him.
4. Social anxiety plagues me daily. I write a script and practice in front of the mirror when I have to make a phone call, but most people who interact with me have no idea how nervous I am (or perhaps they lie) because I've worked so hard to try to overcome it.
5. I'm actually worried that I will never love my children (when I do have them in the far off future) as much as I love my dogs. I just like animals better than people - they're sweet and innocent and soft and furry - is that so wrong?

Gotta love a Space Marine and his sword
Great pictures!
I wish I could have gone. I'm definitely going to be there next year!! =)
Colour me jealous!
Looks like you had a great time, and who doesn't like a hug? (Even if it's only on the face)
Oh, man. I am seriously jealous. Stupid life-getting-in-the-way excuse! It looks like it was fantastic.
Nice article.i really like

That looks like so much fun. I hope I'll go one day. It would be very expensive, since I live in Europe, but a Comic Con is on my list of things to do before I die! Okay, I don't really have a list, but it's on my mental list. So is visiting Cyprus.
Tessa it's on my mental bucket list as well. In fact, the dream would be to write a great novel and be asked to do a signing at a convention. Wouldn' that just be the pinnacle of success? ... Okay one of them. ;)
