I spent the day yesterday at the polls, serving as a poll observer here in Wisconsin. Results aside (which I was pretty pleased with overall), I always find it inspiring to watch so many people come in and vote, no matter how much other stuff they have going on in their day. In my county, we had something like 82% of registered voters turn out for the election – and 84% in my hometown – which feels like a triumph of democracy in action.
Today, I wrapped the first draft for my next Endless Quest book. I’ll tell you more about that later, when I can. I’m hoping to talk about it a bit at Gamehole Con this weekend, actually.
Speaking of which, I’m heading to Gamehole Con this weekend! In fact, I’m leaving in a hour or two. This is one of my favorite conventions of the year. The people who run it are incredible, and it’s a great venue, including a full slate of True Dungeon games. They line up a fantastic group of guests (of which I’m pleased to be one again), and they treat them and all the rest of the players like best friends joining them for an annual reunion.
I’m only taking part in a few official events at the show.
- Friday, 1 PM: Assembling Imagination – Worldbuilding with Matt Finch, Peter Brett, and Pat Rothfuss. Sold out!
- Friday, 2 PM: Endless Quest Live. In which I read from an upcoming Endless Quest book and have the players vote which way to take the story. This one’s currently sold out too.
- Saturday, 2 PM: Endless Quest Live. In which I do it all over again. This one has several seats left, so jump on it if you can.
The rest of the time, I’ll be hanging out with friends, wandering around with my kids, and playing games of all kinds. I believe my friends at I’m Board Games will have copies of my Endless Quest books on sale there, so if you’re looking for autographed copies, be sure to hunt me down and shove them at me.
I hope to see you there!
