Leipziger Buchmesse this week!
From tomorrow until Sunday I’ll be at the Manga-Comic-Convention at the Leipzig book fair and sell my books and zines.
I’ll of course have Driftwood, and also Swedish Comic Sin books as well as zines in German and English.
I made a new German edition of all the Eva stories in their own zines:
Previously the first four stories were in one fat zine, but it’s sold out. Now I discovered that at some point I had translated also the more recent stories into German, so I made new German zines with those. And I updated all the translations, since apparently my German has improved a bit in these seven years since I moved here again.
I have some fun ideas for table decoration, so I hope to make some decent photos … V^(oo)^V
Last time I was in Leipzig was in 2007 for one day, at the claustrophobic manga zine area they had back then. Now the doujinshi area is much larger, more open, and also next to the catering, which is always a plus.
The convention is four full days. I guess some people are staying in Leipzig over the duration of the fair, but the commute from Berlin is just 1,5 hours, which is totally normal commute time for me anyway, so I just got a weekly train ticket and will get to ride awesome ICE fast trains every day.
