On top of featuring guest speakers from within the world of comic writing, there will be a full day of professional development events on April 28 through TCAF's World Balloon Academy. Entertainment lawyers from Edwards Creative Law and various comic publishers will offer insights into the nitty gritty of the comic industry.
TCAF will also have special programming for kids, partnering with Story Planet to run creative writing workshops to help build literary and storytelling skills for young writers.
