Mainstream and Indie Komiks from this year's 'Winter' Komikon |
It's my fourth year of attending the annual Komikon at Bayanihan Center. And as usual, nalagasan na naman ako ng lagpas isang libo, siyet. But one thing that I am proud of, medyo napipigilan ko na ang sarili ko na mang-hoard ng komiks. O magpadala sa sales talk. Basta, masaya ako sa mga nabili ko ngayon. Syempre hindi nawala yung new stuff nina Nino Balita at Ardie Aquino. Then I was also able to get new volumes of Like Man, Patintero, at Dragon Breed.
I met some of my writer-friends too, whom I haven't seen for the longest time. Nayaya nila ako um-attend sa isang book discussion ng isang romance novel na in-adapt recently into a movie. Okay naman. Hati yung mga tao sa kwarto: readers na mga masa at readers na mga coño. Intelektwal yung usapan kaya natuwa ako. Aside: may reader na nakakilala sa akin at nagpa-picture. Nahiya ako, pramis.
Tapos, naibigay ko nga rin pala yung fan art/card na ginawa ng mga estudyante ko para sa mag-asawang Elmer Damaso at Cornelia Damaso. They were deeply touched by the card, and wrote really sweet notes when they signed my copies of Dragon Breed. Pina-dedicate ko na lang sa mga estudyante ko. I'm sure kikiligin yung mga yun.
Anyhoo, it's been a very tiring day, and I still have 1,667 words to write for my NaNoWriMo novel.
Sleep is for the dead.
