zyphryus In reply to jon-bibire [2014-06-26 03:10:58 +0000 UTC]

Yes it is! I have a studio in an old car factory - transformed into many many spaces for artists, offices, services etc. Rent isn't bad and even though its a stretch each month, its worth having.

Hi there, I'm the person that stopped by during GenCon to talk a bit. Bummed out that I was unable to get away from my table most of the weekend to come back and buy magnets :( (Sad) But it was great meeting you and I'll have to try to catch you at another con next year if I wind up working any of the same places

zyphryus In reply to Kefka750 [2012-08-24 05:34:06 +0000 UTC]

Oh cool!!! Glad you were able to stop by!!
Did you have a good GenCon?

Too bad you didn't get to come back, but busy is good?

Hope I wasn't too busy when you stopped by. It was extra busy this year so I didn't get to chat as much to some people either but, busy was definitely a good thing on my end. :) (Smile)
Take care!!
