Familiar Ground

Hello folks.  Some have noticed that I haven’t been updating the blog as much as I used to.  I’ve been rather busy with various things lately.  Unfortunately that trend looks to continue for the next few weeks (this weekend is Pacificon, so I’ll be doubly busy).   However, the strip currently has a fair amount of buffer, so Familiar Ground will be updating regularly even if I won’t be around as much. 

Hopefully, I’ll be able to devote more time to this site soon and finish the various projects I have lined up for it (D&D content, reviews, site update, etc).  In the mean time, the comic will be updating regularly every MWF, and I hope that you continue to enjoy the strip.

Thanks for reading Familiar Ground!

I’ll be at Pacificon Game Expo on Labor Day Weekend, Sept 4-7.

Look for me at the RPGA area in the gaming rooms.

Drop on by and enjoy four days of table top RPGs, card games, miniatures, board games, LARPs and all sorts of geeky endeavors.

I won’t have any books or real merchandise to sell, but I’ll still be available if you want to say and hi and get some free sketches or something.

I’ll probably also bring some original art for display as well as hand out flyers.

This is one of my favorite cons of the year, as the staff is always helpful and goes out of their way to make the con experience enjoyable.

Hope to see you all there!

It’s a new month here at Familiar Ground.  Time to go over some news about the strip.

*  I’ll be attending at least two conventions:  Pacificon in Santa Clara, the first week of September, and APE in San Francisco, the first week of October.  I won’t have stuff to sell yet, so I’ll be attending mostly to mingle and hand out fliers.  If you’re attending any of these shows, feel free to say hi!

*  Updating the website.  I’m still tinkering with the website.  I’m doing everything by myself, and since I know next to nothing about html and CSS, it’s taking me some time.  If there’s a feature that you want to see added or changed, now is the time to let me know.

*  New project.  I have a new comic project that I’m working on, but I’m not quite ready to announce it yet.  However, I could use some input.  If you know of an interesting story, person, place or thing in or around San Francisco and don’t mind sharing it with others, please drop me a line.  Examples of interesting things I already have on the list include:  Wild Parrots, Bushman of Fisherman’s Wharf, and Letterboxing.

*  TopWebComics.  It’s the start of a new month and TopWebComics resets its counters.  Vote now at TopWebComics to discover some trivia about the comic, author or process of the strip.
