I’m heading down to Chicago for C2E2 this weekend, the best geek-centric pop culture convention in the area. I’ll be on two panels with my traditional partner at the show, Ken Hite. Sadly, despite notes in the convention program to the contrary, Will Hindmarch won’t be joining us this year, as he’s off to North Carolina for the excellent ECGC. Since I made that trek last year and know the wonderful crowd he’ll be with, I can hardly blame him, but if you’re in greater Chicagoland area, you can find Ken and I holding forth as listed below
You might also bump into us wandering the floor or the local watering holes too. I hope to see you there!
