Yaoi Con Day 2

Most of the day was spent meeting authors and going to panel. The panel on Yaoi in Ebooks hold by Nix Winter was very interesting, in the public there were also Cat Kane ([livejournal.com profile] catkane ) and RD Solange. Most of my time I passed in the dealer room making some strange impression when I didn't recognize the author due to her pennames... Anyway, to the MLR Press booth I met Laura Baumbach, James Buchanan ([livejournal.com profile] eroticjames ), Jet Mykles ([livejournal.com profile] jetm ), Jade Buchanan ([livejournal.com profile] jadebuchanan ) and her G.I. Joe Boys..., Ally Blue ([livejournal.com profile] ally_blue ), J.L. Langley ([livejournal.com profile] jl_langley ) and Kimberly Gardner: they are all a bunch of well-known and very good authors. The next booth was Blind Eye Books, with only four books but with two great authors, Ginn Hale and Astrid Amara: don't miss the work of these two young lady, it's amazing. Not far from them there was the booth of Dreamspinner Press, and here I met Rhianne Aile ([livejournal.com profile] rhianne_aile ) and Clare London ([livejournal.com profile] claredivatoo ): they had a lot of books and free chocolates... so what not to like? Last but not least was the booth of Torquere Press, hold by Shawn Clements, Julia Talbot ([livejournal.com profile] julia_talbot ), Kara Larson (alias K.L. Richardson, [livejournal.com profile] karalarson ) and Pluto (alias Kit Zheng, [livejournal.com profile] kitzheng ). With Pluto I made my probably bad impression since I confused one of her work with one of Rose Meloche, and I didn't know that she writes as Kit Zheng...

When I was back in my room I had a lot of more books and a lot of beautiful gadgets!

ack, i'm so shiny ;)

don't worry, it is not common knowledge that i do cover work as pluto. um, though i guess it is now! ahahahaha. i just didn't want my art to outshine my writing or vice versa.

it was really great to meet you. and i don't mind being mixed up for rose, she's incredibly talented. i'm just glad i got the chance to thank you for your review of checkpoint in person :)

but I love your work as Pluto...

Thank you very much! :) I'm glad people enjoy it. I think keeping it separate is for my own sanity more than anything else, otherwise I can easily start going "everyone likes my drawings but not my storiesss" or vice versa.

Thanks! I was so embarassed I made the same mistake last year with Rose :-) Probably since I love both your works, without doubt you are the best cover artists of Torquere. Elisa

Thanks so much--that's really sweet of you to say!

Aww, Rose and I were roommates for a little while, maybe our styles rubbed off on each other ;)
