Well, another great Gen Con experience has come and gone - as always, an event that brings out the most creative, engaging, and just all-around wonderful people around. From vendors to special guests to attendees, its a forum that truly can't be missed.

Some old friends were back - the Rudders from Rudderhaven Publications, Roger Sicely and Peter Lewia, authors of the Ameron Chronicles, Robert Dennis Baird, author of the Brazen Serpent Chronicles, and some new ones, like author Julie Scott, author of The Guardians of Oakhurst!

Here is a link to some pictures I took during the four days at the event. A shot out as always to James Buckhorn, who stopped by as he had done last year to say hi and buy a signed copy of the second book in the Forging of a Knight series!

CodCon XXV has dropped the mike for another year...

After a two-year Covid hiatus, College of DuPage's CodCon completed today, and it's always sad to say goodbye (until next year 4/14-4/16 2023, that is!!). Amazing vendors, amazing College of DuPage volunteers, and of course, the amazing head mage/honcho himself of CodCon, Dr. James Allen.
Role playing games, maid cafe and masquerade, a LARP gauntlet, appearances by the awesome 501st Legion as well as Dan the Bard, video games, and more - despite the delay, CodCon was an absolute success!

Check out some fun pics from the event over at my Forging of a Knight website:

Happy New Year! Hopefully everyone had a safe and happy holiday season, as 2024 now gears up full blast - here in Illinois we had roughly 3 months of snow-free, frigid-free weather, but the Snow Miser was finally unleased and below zero temps and inches of snow have fallen at last.

Despite that, PeoriaCon March 2-3 is looming close, and they are bigger and better than ever before! They have moved to the Peoria Civic Center in Peoria, IL, and have landed some awesome guests, like the voice of Squidward Rodger Bumpass himself, and James Pax from Big Trouble in Little China fame!

We'll be there, of course, with more books, more freebies, and more fun! Hope you can stop on by and say hi!

Yet another awesome time at this awesome event! PeoriaCon was held at the Peoria Civic Center for 2024, more of a downtown centralized space, which didn't keep the crowds away at all from coming in and joining the fun! James Pax (Big Trouble in Little China) was there, Rodger Bumpass (voice of Squidward) was there, more vendors, more guests, more game competitions, and activities galore! Some pics follow on my website link below - and the clock is set for PeoriaCon 2025!
