NY ComicCon Update
Posted by Peat
New York Comic Con is this weekend!
I dunno about you, but that’s better than Christmas so far as I’m concerned. A whole weekend of costumes, books, comics, spectacle, and good friends/loved ones.
As if that wasn’t awesome enough, Lauren has been picking outfits all week, having set the bar quite high last year with her couture Batman dress, home-made Dazzler costume, and classic Supergirl. If you were at the con last year, you probably saw her and didn’t notice me as that random guy standing next to her:
Some awesomeness is in store for this year, and she will have a pair of 11 year old costumed sidekicks, to boot.
I have some updates on my events:
NYCC 2013 – Javits Center, New York City
Thursday October 10th-Sunday October 13th
I’ll be wandering around all weekend, even when I don’t have events. I stop at the Random House booth (2204/2205) fairly regularly, and you can often find me hanging out there chatting with people. Don’t be shy! Happy to chat or sign books so long as I’m not running off to an appointment or doing an interview.
Specific events:
Science Fiction Book Club Booth Signing & Giveaway

What do you imagine is at your heels as you run up the basement stairs at night? Whether it’s the flesh-craving undead, genetically altered killers or beings who stalk your dreams, these authors get our hearts racing and skin crawling as we frantically turn pages to get to a “happier place” in their novels. Join David Wellington, Richard Kadrey, Adam Mansbach, Paolo Bacigalupi, Peter Brett and Jonathan Maberry, as they discuss how they create believable monsters and which beings haunt their own dreams.
Monsters Panel Group Signing
After the panel, all the panelists will move to the Autograph area for a group signing.

Signing & Warded Man Giveaway!
We’ll be giving away free paperbacks of The Warded Man and I’ll be there to sign and chat. EVen if you have a copy aleady, stop by and grab a free one to have signed and give to a friend. I’d consider it a personal favor if you help spread the word.
