I spoke with The Phantom Troublemaker at the Needless Things Podcast about the upcoming (this week!) Dragon Con Charity Blood Drive. Give it a listen, won’t you?

If you’re going to be at Dragon Con in Atlanta this Labor Day weekend, please consider donating blood to their charity blood drive! I was able to work with Life South Community Blood Centers and Lugosi Enterprises to make Bela Lugosi the official mascot this year, which is very exciting! In addition to designing the banners you’ll see all around the convention (example below), I was able to tap illustrator Kerry Gammill for some great t-shirt art! The only way to get the shirt is to donate! Hope to see many of you there with your arms out! 😉
Sorry for the lack of updates for so long! I was having problems with WordPress, but they seem to be resolved now. I’ll be more diligent about posting, truly!
Here’s my schedule for Dragon Con, happening in downtown Atlanta over Labor Day weekend. I hope to see you there!
