Comic Book Series is One Year Old!
My Vampire Guardian Angels comic book series is now about a year and a half or so old! The first issue was released in May 2012, the second on September 2012, and the third issue on February 2013! The series is so far well received, the images are beautifully done, the printing quality by createspace is superb, the series has 5 star amazon reviews, and we sold out at Comikaze! This has been an incredible year and we have many more issues in the works! Issue 4 is almost here!
Just wanted to thank my artists Andrew Setter and Chad Hammontree again! Thanks guys for all your hard work and dedication to my Vampire Guardian Angels comic book series. You both are amazing, talented, skilled artists and incredible people and friends! Also want to thank my wonderful friends who help run my Vampire Guardian Angels fan page, Chet Almas and Terri Yamson-Almas. I really appreciate your time, care and help and your awesome support! And thank you thank you especially to my friends, supporters, and fans of the comic book series, and to my awesome hubby Mike Naz, for all your inspiring and great comments, shares, and support and thank you to the talented writers and bloggers and the media who have written about the series and for all you do to help promote the series! Without you all, the series would not have made it this far and it will keep going! More bloody goodness to come!

Comikaze 2013 Recap Day 3
Day 3:
By mid afternoon and Sunday Day 3, we handed out stickers and business cards, My friend Erick Avina who runs a Geek Podcast did an interview with me and my artists.
I also met the Comic Book Men and saw the great Stan Lee walk by my table!
AMC's The Comic Book Men
A Stan Lee sighting!
We also saw Michael Rooker of The Walking Dead and Ron Jeremy!
And here are some of our awesome Artist Alley Tablemates/Boothmates:
Angelo's Comix
The Devil's Playground Burlesque
Mark Thompson of Monstark Studios
I also lost my voice by Day 3, was exhausted, but it was worth it! I loved talking with the fans!
We drove my artists back to LAX for their flight back to Missouri, and I was really happy I was able to have them there at the convention. They had an awesome time!

I'm glad I managed to bring my artists to Comikaze this year, and we plan to do this every year. I'm glad I was able to give them the opportunity to network, see their favorite artists, market their work, and show their talent to the world! Andrew and Chad have such a unique talent with drawing, sketching, and coloring. I can rely on them to bring my Vampire Guardian Angel characters to life. It's like they have this uncanny ability to read my mind. They get on paper exactly what I want. And working with them long distance was surprisingly easy. They keep me updated and I really don't have to worry much because I know the end results will be spectacular!
Comikaze was basically a trial run and testing ground to introduce the comic books to potential fans. The feedback from attendees and people I spoke to about the characters and the concept was really positive. One person I met basically asked me a lot of very detailed questions about the characters and after i explained each of the stories, the response was "You know what, that (concept) works. I'm already curious to see how the stories continue. It's such an original concept and really interesting, and how amazing it was for me to have created this whole new Vampire world!" In general, people love the concept, the stories, and the one thing they kept saying was "I can't wait to read what happens next!"

I'm glad to have had this opportunity to introduce people to my comic books and characters, and for them to actually see the artists at work and to talk to us about the process of making the comic book and bringing the characters to life! And they got actual signed copies from all 3 of us of the issues! It's amazing for the fans to meet the actual writer and artists, and we were honored to meet our current and new fans!
Thank you to all our current fans and friends who have been supporting us, and thank you to new fans, welcome to our world! We appreciate you all!

We actually sold out of comic books on Day 2!
Feedback from people at Comikaze was that was incredible for a new comic book that was not mainstream, it was unheard of to be sold out at such a huge convention, especially for new artists and writers people had not heard of yet. The cover art was what drew people, the quality of the comic books and the awesome black, white and red artwork. Also, We were meeting fans of the more traditional, vicious, bloody and brutal Vampires and that was what attracted them to the comic books, the characters, and the storyline, and the fact that it was such a unique concept and an original comic book and a different take on Vampires. It was something they had never seen before!
While we were at Comikaze I was uploading photos and posting status updates from the event, and again, a big big thank you to the admins of my Vampire Guardian Angels Facebook Fan Page, Chet Almas and Terri Yamson-Almas, for sharing the photos and keeping up with the chaos! And thank you to all the shares and likes on my Facebook pages and Instagram page, and for the RT's on my Twitter page!
Here are some fan pics! We thank the fans for supporting us and the comic books. We are grateful to to the fans and readers for spreading the word about our vicious vampires! Thank you for coming by our table at Comikaze to speak to us and find out more about our work, and it was great to meet new fans, current fans, and readers!

Comikaze 2013 Recap Day 1
This weekend was an amazing first! First time for my artists to visit Los Angeles and the first time we all actually met face to face after working together on my comic book series through text, phone, ad email. This was our first comic book convention and first time at Comikaze, and our experience there was absolutely awesome!
Day 1:
We made out way to the Los Angeles Convention Center to set up our table before the convention opened, and it was amazing to see all the people waiting to get in!
We had a table in Artist Alley by Legacy Effects, it was a great location with a lot of potential traffic!
Thank you Comikaze for the great spot! For our first time there, we really appreciate all the effort it took to put together such a massive event. The organizers were very professional and incredibly helpful!
We spent Day 1 setting up in the morning before the event opened that afternoon.
Halloween Night, 2013:
After picking up my artists from the Airport (LAX) on Halloween night (during which we introduced them to In n' Out Burger, LA traffic, and a drive through Inglewood and "da hood"). I flew them in from Missouri!

We continued to put the word out about our Artist alley Table through social media: Facebook and Twitter, to let fans know that my artists and I had signed comic books (signed by me and my two artists), free autographed photos and stickers! I also want to thank the admins of my Vampire Guardian Angels Fan Page on Facebook, Chet Almas and Terri Yamson-Almas, for sharing the photos and updates I was posting! We had a lot of visitors and met new fans and readers!
And the costumes were awesome! I met some attendees who made/fabricated their own costumes! Such amazing talent and dedication!
