The first expansion of SPOOKALA outside of Ocala is happening this weekend: SPOOKALA TAMPA at the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa, FL Oct 6th-8th! Both Steph and Matt from INSYMMETRY CREATIONS will be there and the show is set up to be one for the ages! Take a look:
We’ll be located at BOOTH 60 right near the front entrance AND the SPOOKALA booth! Our friends at GB Leatherworks aren’t that far away at #101!
#TeamINSYM’s MATT KNOWLES is the panel host / emcee for the weekend. Look at the who’s who of who’ll be on that stage:
We can’t wait to see you at the event!
And DON’T FORGET: It’s October - leaves are falling on the ground. It’s SPOOKY season. It’s also a time when artists follow prompts and draw something different every day of the month.
In steps INDIETOBER! This is where artists and fans alike come together to celebrate indie comic characters and creators, regardless of whether you have artistic talent or not!
On Friday the 13th, ‘QIDO’ is the character of the day for INDIETOBER! We first met QIDO in HEIRS OF ISILDUR, but he's about to get his own full graphic novel, I AM QIDO!
We've decided to spice up the 13th a bit and give you the opportunity to see YOUR fanart included within the book itself!
So how does this work?
* JOIN the INDIETOBER group on facebook.
* When Friday the 13th rolls around, post your I AM QIDO fan art in the group!
* Anyone who posts art concerning I AM QIDO will get, at minimum, a digital PDF copy of the book when it's released!
* Everyone who posts an I AM QIDO drawing will get their name listed as a 'thank you for participating' in the book
* SOME will see their creation included in a collage in the back appendix of the book itself!
* ONE lucky person will also get a signed physical copy of the book, and have their art featured!
WHERE CAN WE FIND REFERENCES FOR 'QIDO'? Here's a link to our INSYM SAMPLER where there is a nine page excerpt from the story, including QIDO himself. We'll also include some images in the Indietober group!
BUT WAIT - THERE'S MORE! We're giving you the option of FOUR different characters from I AM QIDO to submit: QIDO, his friend TATSUMI, the Dark Konquestor BLAZZOK, and CORDEYLIA DIVINA! And if you see another character you'd like to take a crack at - go for it!
We look forward to seeing whatcha got - but most importantly - don't wait until the 13th to join the INDIETOBER group. There are some AWESOME characters and drawings already! Come take part and show your love for ALL the characters that you can!
We’ll be back soon with info on our show this weekend - SPOOKALA Tampa - where we’ll be at ‘Celeb’ Artist Alley #60 and hosting / emceeing all the panels!
And don’t forget: if you MISSED the I AM QIDO campaign or weren’t able to participate for some reason - you’re in luck!
We are currently in the process of getting many of the items from the campaign up on our #INSYMSHOP - we're even considering other avenues to for you to get involved as well. Here’s the link to the I AM QIDO items on our webstore:

We currently have the issue preorders up there right now and we’ll be adding other items soon!
AS AN INCENTIVE: If you place a pre-order in any way, prior to the book being finalized for print, we'll get your name onto the THANK YOU LIST, just like our KS backers, inside the book. How cool is that?
********
That’s all for now - back to working ourselves to the bone to get titles finished, scripted, and created for you!
Matt & Steph
