Origins Game Fair schedule

5/30/2015

Hello readers,

So I will be going to Origins Game Fair next week, and will of course be working a table in the library. If you are going to the convention, please stop by and say hi! It is always nice to chat with people. Otherwise, I will be standing behind my table and swaying from side to side with nothing to do (or more aptly standing on a chair and doing something foolish and liable to get myself hurt - you cannot deny who you are). I will also be serving on panels. Here is my schedule if you would like to hear me talk about something that I claim to know a little bit about.

  • Thursday, 1 pm: More than Black Hats, Creating a Villain
  • Friday, 4 pm: Medieval Combat (apparently this is a solo panel because I won't stop talking about it)
  • Saturday, 1 pm: Magic and Technology
  • Sunday, 10 am: Researching Your Story
  • Sunday, 11 am: Fan Fiction: Friend or Foe

Pretty much any time that the dealers' room is open and I am not at a panel, I will be at my table. I hope to see some of you there!

GenCon here I come!

So it is that time of year again. Time to get ready to head out to GenCon! I will be leaving shortly to head out to the four day long gaming fiesta, and I am looking forward to it. I will be working a table in the Dealer's Hall, but it will not be my table. Since they are publishing my Sheynan Trilogy, I will be sharing a table with Apocalypse Ink Productions. While I will not be at the table the entire time, odds are good that I will be there when I am not on a panel (and the Dealer's Hall is open of course).

Speaking of schedules, here is mine for the convention!
  • Thursday, 12 pm - 1 pm, Combat Before Guns
  • Thursday, 1 pm - 2 pm, Medieval Arms and Armor
  • Thursday, 3 pm - 4 pm, Signing in the Dealer's Hall
  • Thursday, 8 pm - 10 pm, Read and Critique
  • Friday, 11 am - 12 pm, Signing in the Dealer's Hall
  • Friday, 7 pm - 8 pm, Medieval Armor - Hand's On Session
  • Saturday, 6 pm - 7 pm, Short Fiction Plotting
  • Saturday, 7 pm - 8 pm, New Ways to Tell Stories

I am really looking forward to it and hope to see some of you there! Oh, and for those of you who remember the little Kickstarter I ran and the stretch goals... Friday is the day I will be wearing my armor for the full day. So make sure you try to catch me then! That does include doing a True Dungeon run in my armor, for the record.

Origins Game Fair

This upcoming week I will be heading out to Columbus, Ohio to take part once again in the Origins Game Fair. I particularly enjoy going to this convention because it is not as frantic or as crazy as GenCon. Don't get me wrong, I love GenCon, but sometimes it is nice to take things at a slower pace and get some time in to play some games. I look forward to seeing what new games might be introduced there. It always makes my gamer geek side all giddy.

And that is quite a bit of alliteration in that sentence!

For those of you who
might be attending, here is my preliminary schedule.
  • Thursday, 10 am: Crafting Memorable Characters
  • Thursday, 11 am: Writers' Block and You
  • Friday, 10 am: Medieval Combat
  • Friday, 11 am: Military Tactics
  • Friday, 12 pm: History in Fiction
  • Friday, 5 pm: Outfitting Your Characters
  • Saturday, 2 pm: Writers and the Art of Time Management
  • Sunday, 11 am: But it Worked Great as a Campaign!

When I am not on a panel, I will be down in the Dealer's Room selling books. Come on by and say hi!

    Who am I?

    I'm a fiction writer, a game designer, a computer programmer, a hardcore gamer, and a professional sword swinger. I have a thirst for adventure and am a bit of an adrenaline junkie. I try to put a bit of that into all of my stories, and I do love telling stories!
