Hi all,
If you're interested, my STAPLE! report to the indie roleplaying game design community is here.
And also I just want to say thanks. Danielle and I had a great time at STAPLE!. (Thanks as well to everyone who came to the "Self Gratification" panel. I had great fun doing it.)

STAPLE Art for for Charity
Hey folks,
I'm offering some unsold paintings I did at Staple and this past weekend's New Orleans Alternative Media Expo. All of the money is for an outstanding charity too! So, some background on the purpose and the cause, I'm riding again in the BP MS 150 from Houston to Austin and raising money to help fight MS. I'm a bit behind on my goal of raising $2000 so I thought I might offer up some original art if anyone was looking to put some weirdness on their walls. Please check out the following pieces.
Email me (toby at ithinkican dot com) if you are interested in one of them, or maybe request a commissioned piece? Standard donation for one of the 8x5 watercolors has been $65. Please pass this on to friends and strangers alike...
To make a donation online, visit my personal donation page. REMEMBER: Email me if you'd like a particular piece reserved.
Early and ongoing treatment with an FDA-approved therapy can make a difference for people with multiple sclerosis. Learn about your options by talking to your health care professional and contacting the National MS Society at http://www.nationalmssociety.org/ or 1-800-FIGHT-MS (344-4867).

STAPLE Report, plus a radio interview!
Hi all, Chris Ruggia of jackcomics.com here!
I had a wonderful time at my first STAPLE, which was also my first convention appearance of any kind, and for what it's worth I have posted a brief report at my Live Journal.
But my "big" news for today is that Marfa Public Radio will be interviewing me about my comics this coming Tuesday (March 24) on their "Talk at Ten" show. The show is about 20 minutes long, and it comes on just after the 10 am newscast (central time).
If anyone's interested, their stream is available at www.marfapublicradio.org.

Geek Bombast talks (and shows) Staple!
Hey everyone, John here from the podcast group, Geek Bombast. We've posted quite a few bits of Staple material on our website.
In the latest episode of the audio podcast, we do talk a bit about Staple. You can find that HERE
We also posted the second episode of our video show, which is all about Staple. Included on the page are the full interviews we preformed at the show. You can find all of those videos HERE
Finally, we tried to record the Stan Sakai panel for those who may not have been able to attend. We were only able to record about 27 minutes of it before they ran out of tape, sadly. However, what we did record can be found on our VEOH page. You can view the video HERE
Hope you enjoy!
We had a lot of fun at Staple '09 and can't wait till next year!
