#1 So, anyone else going to GenCon?

Post by Rogue 9 »

Preregistration for GenCon in Indianapolis ends today; the convention begins on August 10th. I registered and reserved hotel rooms yesterday; anyone else going?

Yes, I know you're going. I hope you've gotten paid, because I'm going to deposit that check for your share of the hotel room today. :razz:

Wish I could make it, but I can't go running all over the country for conventions. GenCon will have to be it, at least for this year.

Thank you!
I hate having funds floating around.
And I'm getting my registration on right now. Gogo worky powa!

Lemme know if you see any rocking events that are must-dos. I may have to hit up one of those Dragonlance Seminars.
I suppose I could putz around the site some, though. Maybe there are some other authors whose presence I can revel in.

So be it. If saying "NO" means being alone, then to hell with love, with romance, with marriage, and all the shit life keeps pumping at me. I'll walk alone, but with freedom and a healed pride.

Hopelessly overpriced beer I don't particularly like, terrible (for want of a better term) music and drunks throwing up, starting fights, and sometimes both at the same time, everywhere? Thanks. I'll pass.

It's too far away for me, so I can't. Also, the next week is band camp, and I'll need to be well rested for that.

The only (major) Con I can go to is DragonCon here in Atlanta. (There are a few other smaller Cons like MomoCon also, but you probably haven't heard of most of those.)
