1000 Words

Thought Bubble comic festival‘s full lineup has been announced today, including a little event Mike Bennet and I are throwing together; 1000 Words.

1000 Words is a collection of very short talks about comics & culture, by people who love both. Nine speakers will be talking about the things that inspire them, whether that’s games, music, or moving pictures, with each talk lasting fifteen scintillating minutes. Following them will be a keynote by one of comics current stars, who has thirty minutes to tell the world how their industry & their interests collide.

Running from 11am-4pm on November 17th, guests include Emma Vieceli, Anne Hollowday, Si Spurrier, Laura Snapes, Kristyna Baczynski, Hannah Donovan, Andy Belanger, Kate Brown and Antony Johnston, with a keynote from Kieron Gillen to wrap things up.

You can see a few more details over on the Thought Bubble website, and we’ll be revealing some of the topics over the next few weeks over on the Thought Bubble blog.

Thanks to Clark and Lisa for giving us the chance to put this on – it’s going to be a lot of fun!
