All sorts of exciting business is going on this weekend out there in ComicLand. Our fair retailers TopatoCo are having a TAG SALE on Saturday the 26th. Check it out if you live near western Mass and want some mad deals all the internet comics merchandise you could ever desire. The Small Press Expo is happening in Maryland this weekend, and I will be crying myself to sleep each and every night because I can't go this year!

HOWEVER all is not lost! I will be speaking at the ever-popular Webcomics Panel at Word on the Street here in Toronto. The festival goes all day Sunday, and the Webomics Panel is in the Comics tent, starting at 5pm. Come on out and listen to me blather.

My new novel Overqualified is out. They have some kind of crazy fancy inside paper because they were printed at Coach House. The book is the perfect size for hollowing out to use as a secret cache for condoms and cocaine (or, let's be honest, for nintendo DS games and candy.)

Also, the first reviews are showing up online. But do these top Katie West's review, which begins with, "Everyone I know wants Joey Comeau to be inside of them," and ends with, "I hate you Joey Comeau. I hate you and I hate your stupid book."

I suspect they do not.

The Overqualified book is now shipping! - If you have some A Softer World-inspired work, upload it to flickr and tag it "aswfanart". Take a look at what other people have made here. - We also have an RSS FEED, or an LJ FEED, if you'd like. And you can now read the feed on tumblr
