I Went to GenCon

  • Sold 100 copies of a $45 book.
  • Got invited to Burning Man by a friend.
  • Got invited to go to England as a special guest at a convention.
  • Got invited to go to Finland as a special guest at a convention.
  • Got told my first novel was the best novel someone ever read (twice) by someones who have a lot of literary expertise and friends who are literary agents.
  • Talked smack about Gary Gygax during his moment of silence on Saturday while high on prescription back pain medicine after I threw out my back on Friday night.
  • Got to hang out with a bunch of wonderful people I only see once a year 
  • ate good food
  • Picked up a bunch of great games
  • Heard people say WONDERFUL things about my own games (including the new one–holy shit, they were playing it the day they bought it!)
  • Heard the phrase, “If you published this game in the ’90s, I woudln’t be playing Vampire” more than once.
  • Have HUGE plans for next year

    (more later–with pictures and CHW Bear!)
