I’m back from the northern land of Canada!  This past weekend I embarked on a road trip to the great city of Toronto.  One of my jobs as a full-time professional Maker of Things is producing lots of squishy cuteness for a very nice Canadian man named Jack (also known as Rich) who runs Jack and Pookie Publishing.   I have never actually met this man in person, so he invited me to be a guest of honor at his booth at FanExpo.  I love a good road trip and the prospect of adventure so I readily accepted.  Seeing as how it is a nine hour drive from my home in Maryland to Toronto, I decided to break out one of my fancy little booklets from my last post and make a small journal of my journey.  It turns out, it’s much more satisfying and entertaining than just taking photos.

Now I present to you:

Despite the fact that I don’t do very well at talking to new people and I sort of weird out in large crowds, I had a great time at FanExpo.  The fun and friendly people who invited me really made it worthwhile.  Jack was a very gracious host and made sure I didn’t get too stressed out.  I also really enjoyed meeting all the nice fans I didn’t even know I had.  Thanks to anyone who came by the table and met me.  Hopefully I will see some of you again in the future.  I am definitely looking forward to an opportunity to go back to Toronto.
