Out of the Inkwell

I've received inquiries on how to get an autographed copy of my book "Escape! How Animation Broke into the Mainstream in the 1990s."

And the answer is...I'm not sure! I will be having a local signing in my hometown of Springfield at 2 p.m. Jan. 26 at the grand and majestic Central Library. I'll post more details as plans are firmed up.

I'm still trying to get a signing lined up in Boston and New York, and will be lobbying a couple of places in those communities this week.

I'm debating buying a bunch of book myself to autograph and sell then through the blog. We'll see.

In the meantime, word is getting out there about the book's existence. The great animation director Michael Sporn plugged it on his blog and Jerry Beck gave it a nod at Cartoon Brew. Thanks guys!

Even the book's cover artist, Mark Martin (not the race car driver) mentioned it on his blog!
