Coming Saturday: CarrierCon 2024!


A reminder: next Saturday is CarrierCon, a pop culture (anime, cosplay, gaming, etc.) convention aboard the USS Hornet Sea, Air and Space Museum in Alameda, Calif., which is one of my favorite attractions in the San Francisco Bay Area. It's a fun little con that draws friendly, enthusiastic vendors and fans to a historic aircraft carrier. What could be better than that?!

Special guests include my friends Wendy and Richard Pini of ElfQuest fame, who will be there all day to meet fans, sign books, and talk elves and wolves. My sole responsibility is taking part in the Pinis' 3:00 panel, "Wendy & Richard Pini in Conversation with Brian Fies," and we want to make it a real conversation. I hope to dig into creativity and working independently with people who've been doing it at a high level for 46 years. Even if you don't know ElfQuest, my goal is for you to take away something interesting and useful.

The Pinis don't make many West Coast appearances and CarrierCon is small enough that an ElfQuest fan could have some quality time with them. Come on by, meet some people, tour a great ship. That sounds like a fine day.
