"Playing on the ideas of legacies and what makes a superhero, Mike Luoma has plotted a story that has to do fifty things at once and convey it all subtly... a surprisingly well-rounded comic-book... " - MCMBuzz.com  (review of RED HOT #1) 
”... a good take on the "legacy" hero... ...has a really great twist that makes the book a little bit more readable than the usual young-hero-proving-himself fare." – BlogThis,Pal.com (review of RED HOT #1)

This panel of indie authors, small presses, and comic creators will tell you what resources are out there, scams to avoid, and what to expect. Come over to the Dark Side of indie publishing. We have candy…

I'm moderating this one! With Dan Mazur, Mildred, Ursula Vernon and Joey the First.


Mon 11:30 AM Build a Home Podcast/Audiobook Recording Studio    Marina 3

Description Come learn how to set up a budget home audio recording studio. How long does it take to record a book or create a podcast? What makes a book read-out-loud-able?
