Well, all those who went out to GenCon are back now with the rest of us (who could not go). I, like many others I’m sure, sat glued to Twitter living vicariously through those who were there. The highlight for me was the ability to watch the ENnies streamed live – getting to see faces, and hear the voices of those whose names were familiar to me – whether they can be found in a book on my shelf, or attached to a blog I have read, or a forum I frequent.
Often times, when reading various D&D blogs and forums, I recognize how minuscule my experience/take on D&D is when compared to others. Sure, I have been playing some 22 years now, been around the community for a long while, but there are just SO many people who know SO much more than me I feel like it’s new to me, but so familiar at the same time.
The whole experience of getting my GenCon fix through others in this way really cemented in me the desire to not only go next year, but to DO more during this next year as well. I’m going to be developing some new ideas/projects and may be approaching some of you about them, but I also want to offer up the idea of me working with you in some way, any way you think might be fun or interesting. If you have ideas, I’m open to the possibility of helping if I think I can!
Anyway, I’m really looking forward to seeing many of you there next year and to working on some new things between now and then!
