Everyone who’s thinking about attending Dreamation and offering to run games should read this thread on the Forge. Vinny is soliciting comments on some new policies that will be in place for the convention. I think these are the building blocks of an even better Indie Games Explosion in the future!
It can’t be August 12 already, can it? I packed up a bunch of Serial Homicide Unit and sent them off to GenCon with Michele. I hope everyone has a great con. Last year I was happy to get away from the stress of the big GenCon trip. This year I’m missing the opportunity to … Read more

The registrations deadline for DEXCON 12 is nearly here. See Kat’s LJ entry for all the details. Kat’s in charge of the IGE this time. I’ve worked several 55 hour weeks this month, and there’s no sign of it letting up. Back to the grindstone…
