Oh shit, the crossing arms technique. Now it's on!

It's gonna be a busy ass weekend for me. I'm making two appearances!

BMORE INTO COMICS

Saturday from 12pm - 5pm, I'm gonna be in Baltimore for BMORE INTO COMICS! I'm so excited! I missed the first two so it'll be good to get back into the swing of things. This is a really small, local one-day show. Admission is free and there be beer there! What's better than comics and beer!!!!

TALK STORY: SHATTERING THE SECRET IDENTITIES OF YELLOW PERIL; TELLING ASIAN AMERICAN STORIES IN COMICS

Sunday from 1:30pm - 3:30pm, I'll be in DC for TALK STORY. I'll be joined by Keith Chow and Kat Chow (no relation) talking about comics and being Asian American.

So if you're near either place, come down and say hi! Admission is free for both events which will be super fun!

MOUSE OVER

She's just mad she's not at Comic Con this week. 

PANEL 1

Annie starts to sit up. Ally shakes her hands.

ANNIE

Sure, I’m conservative. Aren’t you?

ALLY

Wh—Why would you think that?

PANEL 2

Annie and Ally sit across from each other on the bed.

ANNIE

You’re a small business owner.

ALLY

What? I’m not the “job creator” type. I’m the “starving artist” type.

PANEL 3

Closeup on Ally who is yelling.

ALLY

How many right wing hippy dippy artists do you know? Besides, you’re, like, super gay! How can you support a party that’s so very diametrically opposed to who you are?

PANEL 4

Annie scowls.

ANNIE

The lesbian stripper? Is that how you see me?

This video is sort of a subtweet about some art twitter discourse. But I wanted to respond in video form rather than in written form so that you wouldn't misinterpret my words. Also not linking the discourse directly because I don't want to dogpile on the inspiration for my thoughts. But here are three ideas that I wanted to share with artists for us to keep in our brains as we go into the new year.
