This last weekend I went to TCAF. It’s like a whole other country up there.

It was a very well attended show and I was fortunate enough to sit right next to publishing prizefighter Brett Warnock. I also got to know Kathryn and Stuart Immonen who are two of the most warm-hearted AND blindingly talented people I’ve met in a long time. Check out their new book Moving Pictures.

These comic shows are only once or twice a year for me, so it was also great to see all the guys from One Percent Press, David Huyck, Box Brown, and Chris Pitzer. I also met for the first time some wonderful people including Ed Brisson, David Yoder, and Josué Menjivar.

However, I didn’t meet Dan Clowes. Maybe he couldn’t find my table.

I took a lot of mediocre photos while I was there.

Here’s some drawings I did while killing time at my table during APE.

It’s going to be fun.

I’ll be here on Saturday.

More ghosts.

As I continue my quest of becoming a know-it-all, I’ve developed a workshop centered around making artist books/minicomics for the Minnesota Center for Book Arts.

Minicomics as Artist Books
with Will Dinski
Mondays: March 24, 31, April 7, 14
6-9pm

If you’re interested go here to register. Because if you don’t, there won’t be a class and I’ll have some free time on my hands. And I get in trouble when I have too much free time. So keep me off the streets AND learn about book arts.I’ve a BFA in this stuff, you know.

I made a whole slew of books this weekend. 160 of them will be for the Lutefisk Sushi show this spring. More details later …
