Greetings from the convention founder! :)

Just a quick note to let you know that we are in the final stages of the website rewrite to make things easier to read through. We also will be updating the site with the form from where artists and vendors can register to exhibit.

If you are curious about all of that, you can get a general idea of how we did it by looking through “Archive” on our top bar.

We are back from Magfest this weekend and wanted to thank you all for purchasing all of our squeaky owls. Many of you registered as well. Meeting you and talking with you really inspires us to make this con even better every year. Thank you!

If you’d like to see pictures from this weekend, you can see them on our Facebook as well.

We Intervened and Inspired this weekend at Magfest in Maryland:

We sold our squeaky owls – when you purchase one of these you also are donating to support the event. We SOLD OUT of all of them:

I was drawing some comic goodness at the table. This will be a comic over at Onezumi.com in the next few days:

I found an awesome flower for my hair yay:

Janice, our new Exhibition Hall coordinator made this for me! SQUEE:

We love our friends over at Squishable.com. If you attended a last Intervention, you had a really great chance of winning one of these guys:

For once, I remembered to wear my Intervention T- Shirt. PROOF:

I played SO MANY games in the arcade room at Magfest. This was less than half of the room – more like 1/8th of the room. It was huge in reality:

Ghostbusters car:

I hope you all had a great weekend! I now have a flat tire from my trip home. Nothing goes perfectly in life, but if you keep thinking positively things will be great! :D

Intervention 2012 now has an official date and place: September 21-23rd, 2012 at the Hilton Rockville. Pre-registration for attendees will be online within a day, with Artist Alley applications being taken by early next week.

Intervention 2011 is happy to announce the following premieres and special launch events happening at the event this year:

Travis Surber, creator of the webcomic Hainted Holler, will be debuting his second collection of strips, Hainted Holler 2:Redneck Boonaloo at the event. Check out his table in the Vendor Room to get a copy.

Studio Unseen, the team behind the webcomic Sledge Bunny will be launching their own sculpted armadillo characters at the event–they were sculpted by one of our other Vendor Room artists Kelsey Wailes (eattoast), who has already been written up for her incredible work on io9.

Peej and Bengie, the team behind the new comic Slackjaw will be having their official launch party at Intervention 2011 on Saturday September 17th at 7pm in Panel room 1. They are also running our famous Interfection LARP as well, so expect both hijinks and horror.

Bree Rubin, from Nerd comics, has also let us know that she will be launching their new compilation “Washington” at the event, and may have a, *ahem*, “small”, *cough*, room party to celebrate it at some point during the weekend. You’ll want to catch her in the Vendor Room for more details.
