Going West

And so later today we will set out due west—via rental Rendezvous (an interestingly-shaped car)—to pass through Pennsylvania and Ohio to reach the State of Indiana wherein we shall commence into a 3–4 day experience known collectively as GenCon 2005. It’s the biggest annual convention for fantasy/sci-fi/gaming, and also the only convention I’ve ever been to.

We’ll be staying with my friends Ed Gentry and Lara Gose, fellow writer/gamers.

I'll be checking back in 7 days and hopefully will have stories to tell (or at least amusing anecdotes) and photos from the whole experience. We'll get to meet a whole bunch of authors and game designers who are celebrities within the industry.

Incidentally, Escapee episode 17 is up. 18 will be in two weeks.
