With a current summer tour, a new national distributor, and several scheduled merchandise launches for the “13” series (trading cards, apparel, toys) Dixon hopes Thursday’s panel will allow her to impart as much valuable information as possible to fellow independent creators hoping to begin or expand their own franchises.
Dixon has spoken at a number of conventions this year, including Anime Los Angeles, where she announced that TUMBLE CREEK PRESS would make its first foray into manga and most recently AdventureCon 2009 (Knoxville, TN), where she walked aspiring new artists through the steps necessary to create their first professional portfolio. The three-day Knoxville Con was but one stop in 11 cities Dixon visited last month promoting her series “13”.
