<\/p> $\"\"$ <\/a>Hey, Philadelphia!
I\u2019ll be in your town next week and I\u2019m bringing the biggest public display of my artwork I\u2019ve ever assembled. It\u2019ll all be at Philcon<\/a> (which is actually across the river in Cherry Hill, NJ<\/a>), where I\u2019m this year\u2019s Artist Guest of Honor. Most of the works will be for sale, and there will be framed originals as well as framed prints in the collection. It\u2019s my only East Coast trip this year, so if you\u2019re in the area, I\u2019d love to see you (Nov. 20 thru Nov. 23)! If you\u2019ve got books or covers you want signed, bring \u2019em on as well.\n

Question for you, Philly \u2014 what are your favorite local restaurants and eateries, especially in the downtown Philly and surrounding areas? And yes, the first stop when I get off the plane will be to get real Philadelphia cheesesteaks. I\u2019ve received a couple of very reliable reviews already (thanks, Diana! :)), but I\u2019m open to everyone\u2019s feedback. It\u2019s my first trip to Philly\u2026. who\u2019s got the best cheesesteaks? Best pizza? Any great indy bookstores? Any \u2018can\u2019t miss\u2019 unique weirdness?<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
