For the last two days, several members of the Bookmans staff and myself have been setting up our booth at the 2010 Phoenix Comicon at the Phoenix Convention Center. A lot of time and love has gone into the decision making that it required to come up with the really cool items that we will have available for the convention attendees.

This year everyone will be spinning our prize wheel, hoping to win one of our exclusive Bookmans Phoenix Comicon t-shirts. My favorite part? It's always free to win Bookmans schwag! What I am really looking forward to over the weekend is to see months of planning come together for the First Annual Kids Need to Read Geek Prom that Bookmans is sponsoring.

I have had a great time working together with Denise Gary, Executive Director of Kids Need to Read. The “Geek Prom” has one goal, raise lots of money so that we can give a lot of children new books! Kids Need To Read donates books to children and schools that are underfunded. A small shout out to the Arizona Browncoats for volunteering their time on the Geek Prom as well!

So, if you are attending the Phoenix Comicon, stop by booth 212, say hello, spin the prize wheel, and give me a high five!

Don't forget, you can follow the madness via Twitter with the hashtags #phxcc #pcc or #geekprom.
