I’ve shot a note to SPX (the small-press expo, which holds an event each year in Bethesda) asking for press credentials. I’m hoping to source and interview some local creators, and post pictures and audio.
I have plans to do the same for the three-day Baltimore Comic Con, which is more of a multimedia extravaganza (and still one of my favorite cons).
I’ll be writing about both of those in my September and October columns.
I’m also on the hunt for local creators to interview. Let me know about them here, by email, over on Twitter, or over on the Substack.
One thing I’d like to do is an annual “state of the small press” overview, maybe around the new year.
Of course, my main focus through all this is building that community, and I can’t do that without you, so chime in on the Substack.
