*STARTING TO GET FEEDBACK FROM MY SHOT-TAKING PERFORMANCE AT THE SPX 2005 IGNATZ AWARDS

Heya!

Ok, you’re getting an email from someone you’ve never heard of. Yup, yup, there you go! I was at SPX (exhibiting in the far too hot Montgomery room) and I didn’t get much of a chance to circulate and say “hi” to people. Damn desire to stay with my table! :) Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks for making the Ignatz Awards the most enjoyable show I’ve seen in a long time (thus proving I entertain easily!). I’m not sure how you were walking straight, but man, both my wife and I enjoyed it a bunch. And for newcomers to the con (and from Canada, to boot!) it really did help us enjoy ourselves.

So, for what it’s worth – thanks a bunch! :)

Mr. K,

According to Comic Book Resources (http://www.comicbookresources.com/news/newsitem.cgi?id=5956):

The highlight of Saturday’s show was this year’s presentation of the Ignatz Awards. Hosted by Keith Knight, these awards celebrate the best of the independent comics in world in categories ranging from Anthologies to Online comics.

Keith’s fast funny presentation kept the show moving, as did the shot of tequila award winners were asked to take, although volunteers from the audience such as Dean Haspiel managed to take shots for those who weren’t inclined to drink in front of an audience.

Well done!

Happy to be back in the land of coffee and pizza,
