Doing the best imitation of myself
So Gen Con is just around the corner, and I won't be there for the first time since 1979. Yes I feel old.
The real problem is that I'm going to miss out on all of the wonderful products that are released at the con, especially from small-press outfits.
Each year I make a point of talking to the small press companies and seeing what new products they have. Many times, these are companies who make one showing EVER at the con. I always buy something from them, and many times these are some of the best buys I make.
This has given me some great memories. Two years ago, I bought Jeff Dee's new (at the time) RPG, and got him to sign it. I pointed out that the last time I talked to him I was nine years old and he was signing my first edition copy of V&V. I think that made BOTH of us feel old.
This year I won't be there, so I'm asking for those of you who are going to be at Gen Con to talk about your new releases. If you're a company who does not get regular distribution, let me know so my store can either special order it, or I can get the stuff directly from you!
A note to those of you going to the con: make sure to stop by at some of the smaller booths. You might find some great products, and you'll always come away with some great stories.
Thanks for your help,
