Last year, Meredith Gran decided to hold the first ever New England Webcomics Weekend in Easthampton, Massachusetts. What was meant to be a gathering of webcomic creators turned into a full-blown convention, with established and aspiring webcomickers descending on the small town by the carload.

The NEWW website has updated for the first time in a while, confirming that, yes, we will get a second shot at Webcomics Weekend. On November 6-7, expect the Eastworks Building to flood with lovers of all things webcomic. They've even posted an initial guest list -- but where are Northamptonites Jeffrey Rowland and Jeph Jacques? Whither Meredith Gran? I would imagine their absences are merely an oversight.

If you're planning on attending this year's NEWW, start saving your sheckles. If you're not already in New England, Easthampton can be very troublesome and expensive to get to. I'd recommend looking for fellow attendees to carpool with. And if you want to exhibit at NEWW, you'll want to submit an application ASAP.
