221b Con Intro

Name: Lee (aka @HRHSherlock on Twitter)

Pronouns: She/her

Age: Old enough to know better, young enough not to care

Located: Bay Area

What do you do in fandom?: I run Carnation Books @carnationbooks, primarily. Find me at the con for swag (free buttons and badge ribbons!). Multiple Carnation Books authors and staff members will be at the con 😀 http://www.carnationbooks.com

As a part time gig, I shitpost on Twitter. I used to shitpost full-time on Tumblr, but I find Twitter less distracting at the moment.

How long are you staying?: til Tuesday, but I’ll be spiritually communing with whale sharks on Monday.

How are you getting there?: UFO

Cosplays: uwu flower twink Luke Skywalker cosplay, casual low-key Kylo Ren cosplay, or a t-shirt with my company logo on it (did you know that it’s legally mandatory for all small business owners to own one of these or they throw you in business jail)

Roomies: @thehats and @berlynn-wohl are my squad 4 life

Where to find me: I’m not *on* any panels, but I’ll be attending a handful of them. I’ll probably be primarily hanging at the bar (assuming the bar is cool at the new hotel, otherwise I’ll be hanging out at whatever the rad cool spot is) and chatting with anyone who wants a chat!

Drinks: drinking is fun, but I myself live in Sobertowne. You can buy me a diet Coke with lemon tho if u wanna chat me up in a saucy fashion

Hugs: please do not hug me! BUT fist bumps are more than welcome!!

Pictures: feel free

Anything else?: Talk to me about publishing your fanfic as original work or scream with me about multifandom shipping, both are equally welcome. I love making new friends.

If you are trying to find me, there’s a decent chance Russian fur hat wearer/Han Yolo @berlynn-wohl or Princess Leia cosplayer/my roommate @thehats knows where I am, and if they don’t know, they can find out real quick-like.

Optional Contact Details: get at me on Twitter (@HRHSherlock) or just shout “Carnation Books!” into the ether and I will spontaneously materialize

Reblog this intro: with gusto!!

Heading to 221bcon?? Chat me up!!!

Berlynn Wohl is looking for a cover artist for her new book!

berlynn-wohl:

I am pleased to announce that I will soon be publishing an anthology of M/M sci-fi erotica with Carnation Books! At this time, I am looking for an artist to do the cover illustration. Yes, this is a paid job! 🙂

Here are some pertinent details. Send me an Ask to get the rest:

  • The deadline for the final art is November 30th.
  • Your contacts for this project will be myself (for the creative aspect) and Carnation’s CEO, Lee Douglass (for the business aspect).
  • I am a Cold War nerd, so I would like for the cover of the book to be somewhere in the “mid-century pulp sci-fi” spectrum. Below are some examples of what I mean. Ideally, the illustration will be an homage to this era, while also indicating that the book is M/M erotica. You will have the chance to read some of my never-before-seen stories to get ideas about the content.

Send me an Ask if you are interested, and be sure to include a link to your art blog/art tag and an email address.

And please reblog to spread the word!
