<\/a>Hey there guys, I’m ridiculously busy at the moment but I wanted to take a second and recognize all the great media that TCAF got this year. Thanks espescially go to Nathalie for setting a lot of it up. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

There’s a massive, awesome preview of the entire Festival over at Torontoist, http:\/\/torontoist.com\/2007\/08\/get_tcaffeinate.php<\/strong><\/a>. It features profiles of all kinds of great stuff about the festival, and is remarkably in depth (and long!). More coverage promise to appear over the weekend.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Meanwhile, BlogTo.com printed a really nice little article on TCAF as well. You can click here to read it<\/a><\/strong>. (I’ll try and include full-links when I can, but sometimes they’re too long and break the tables.)<\/p>\n

Toronto scene-mag MONDO also did a huge overview of the festival, which includes interviews with Joey Comeau, Danielle Corsetto, Jeff Lemire, Jim Zubkavich, and many more. You can find their profile at http:\/\/mondomagazine.net\/comics-arc-tcaf.html<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

They also did a comics-format interview with Bryan Lee O’Malley, which is to say the interview is, itself, a comic. You can see that at http:\/\/mondomagazine.net\/comics-c-i-mal.html<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Queer freebie magazine XTRA also did a huge feature article on TCAF, and me, and cartoonists Jose Villarrubia and Steve MacIsaac. I say lots of inflamitory things in it, which might even be good for web-fodder. You can check it out at http:\/\/www.xtra.ca\/public\/viewstory.aspx?AFF_TYPE=3&STORY_ID=3451&PUB_TEMPLATE_ID=3<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking of me, Tom Spurgeon interviewed me over at The Comics Reporter this week. I think it turned out pretty well? Although I’ve received litterally no e-mail on it. Maybe I edited out all the good parts after all? Anyway, if you like, you can read it here<\/a><\/strong>. (Sorry, it’s a really long link).<\/p>\n

Elsewhere in Toronto, Toronto Life magazine included TCAF in it’s city guide for events this weekend at http:\/\/www.torontolife.com\/guide\/arts-and-entertainment\/diversions\/toronto-comic-arts-festival\/<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong> and The Globe and Mail mentioned it in their Toronto “7” feature today, and you can click here to read it<\/a><\/strong>. (Another long link.)<\/p>\n

In addition there’s been website links, blurbs, and advertisements across countless news websites and personal creator sites. Thanks to everyone there who said nice things or sent people our way.<\/p>\n

So…! Coverage in three of the four dailies, all of the free weeklies, across the net and lots of targeted stuff. I think we’ve done everything we can to get people out to the event this weekend short of physically dragging them. I’m not ruling out physically dragging people to the event.<\/p>\n

Hope we can see you there!<\/p>\n
