Who still shows up on Saturdays? It looked like the last anyone said about it was a post from Fenmere in December. Has it changed for anyone?

The reason I ask is because Saturday in the late morning or noon is the only time I can force you to endure my excessive body odor, and without the promise of your horrified faces as motivation, I find I just don’t seem to make time for my comics.

I was under the mistaken impression that the meetings were still supposed to be noon (oops). When I was still going regularly, though, there was only one person there. That’s fine, because I’m sure he was properly horrified by the unholy reek of my unwashed form, but it’s really more effective for me if I can make three or four of you gag and claw at your throats, instead of just one.

Let me (and everyone else) know in the comments what times you Saturday people show up, so I know if there’s any way we can arrange an overlap.

Diamond Comic Distributors is going to sleep for a week at the end of December. Tiptoeing around its slumbering arse like an Odysseus in the night, or a Goldilocks in the day,* Indy Comic Week will fill Wednesday not with oiled up mainstream titles, but the sweaty fruits of indy labor!

You don’t have anything better to do than finish a new comic specifically for this purpose.  (I promise, I’ve seen you.) This should be our anti-New Year’s goal, to be fulfilled before this year runs away crying from all the repeated abuse and semi-toxic cafeteria food.

Someone was talking about another 24-hour comics binge. Perhaps we can do it with the intent to bind and publish our crap masterpieces and distribute it that golden last Wednesday of 2009.

However you finish your offerings to the Goddess of Opportunism, good luck with it, and have fun!

* I guess it just depends on whether we plan on poking out their eye with our comics, or using our comics to shovel all their porridge into our greedy gullets.
