As many of you may already know, we're adding a new affiliate today, Heroes of Ivalice. You all know I'm not a big fan of pen-and-paper or text-based RPGs, but Kairo's concept is so good, and he's so passionate about it that I wanted to share it with everyone via CoN. Of course, I can't explain it properly, so check out his thread to learn more.

Also, those of you who follow our fanart galleries often may recognize the name Lindsay Cibos. She's a very talented artist who has an image in our Fanart Hall of Fame. Well, now she's got another claim to fame - Tokyopop has recently published her shojo manga "Peach Fuzz." When you can read about an artist in your local newspaper, who has donated to CoN, you know she's getting to the big time. Check her out at her own site and learn more.

Finally, I've heard a rumor that another artist at CoN is iin talks for a publishing deal and is close to closing a contract up. I won't say who because I don't want to jinx it, and I don't want you all to guess for the same reason. But keep your fingers crossed anyway.

That's some nice art, it's good to know her talents' been recognized. Congrats to Heroes of Ivalice, I'll certainly look around, and good luck to the mystery CoN person.

Wow thats some great art Lindsay Cibos has. I am soooooo jealous. I imagine it takes quite a bit of talent to make art that good AND come up with a concept that Tokyopop would buy.

Good luck to her, Heroes of Ivalice, and this mystery person.
