I'll be there, and it shouldn't be difficult to find me. But I'm aware of a few other Witnesses who will be attending, they still have some time to receive submissions if they want to speak up.

 

Also, it looks like there will be copies of the Secret Invasion Sketch Cover available for sale at the event if people need more. There will be a comics and graphic novels on sale at the event --- nominated works and other items by Canadian creators will be available.
