Weekly Wrap-Up (26)

Hey all, Dani here. Holy smokes, this is the 700th post I've written and posted for this blog. That number doesn't include the posts by Damian or Signy; just mine. I'm not going to lie: this feels like a pretty big accomplishment. I never dreamed that this blog would do this well, and I'm constantly… Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up (26)

Weekend Writer: Introduction

Hey all, Dani here. In all honestly the Writer's Symposium at Gen Con had the opposite effect I was hoping for. There were a few interesting things I learned, and it was cool to meet authors who either work as a writer full time or who have a day job and then write on the… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Introduction

Weekly Wrap-Up (25)

Hey all, Dani here. I feel like today's wrap up isn't all that exciting of a post. But then again, most of my excitement from the past week centers on our trip to Gen Con, and I've already given you pretty much all the details from that (Day One, Day Two, Day Three, Day Four).… Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up (25)

Gen Con – Day Four

Hey all, Dani (and Damian) here. This post should have been written and published yesterday, but after driving home from the convention on Sunday, we did a lot of sleeping and a lot of staring at our very nicely sized convention haul. It was a lot to deal with and so this post didn't get… Continue reading Gen Con – Day Four

Gen Con – Day Three

Hey all, Dani (and Damian) here. Whew, we're almost at the end of the Gen Con experience. It's always such a great time, but it's also so jam packed with people and stuff to do, so I look forward to this convention, but then I also look forward to just relaxing once it's over. As… Continue reading Gen Con – Day Three

Gen Con – Day Two

Hey all, Dani (and Damian) here. Typically when it comes to a convention, Saturday is the longest and busiest day. For us at Gen Con this has not been our experience. No, for us Friday is the longest day, thanks to a certain Dungeons & Dragon's show we are huge fans of. Yes, Day Two… Continue reading Gen Con – Day Two

Gen Con – Day One

Hey all Dani (and Damian) here. It has been a couple eventful days already, but it started with what we'll call Gen Con Day Zero. The day before the convention officially starts is a day to pick up your badge and tickets early, find some awesome random nerds sitting around chatting or playing a game… Continue reading Gen Con – Day One

July Wrap Up

Hey all, Dani here. It's my birthday and I'm sitting in panels, ooh yeah, writing panels. LOL. Hello everybody. Yes, I wrote this intro before we actually got started with Gen Con, so this paragraph may just be pretty vague. Oh well, there's nothing I can really do to help that. You will definitely be… Continue reading July Wrap Up

Discussion: Cost of the Online Book Community

Hey all, Dani here. I somewhat have my voice back, but overall I'm still trying to not talk, which has been so difficult. I'm actually carrying a notepad and pen with me so I can write what I need to say. I can honestly say that these last couple have days have truly made me… Continue reading Discussion: Cost of the Online Book Community

Weekly Wrap-Up (22)

Hey all, Dani here. Wow, I only have two more work days to go on third shift and then I can get back to my normal hours. Having to do a temporary switch from being a day person to a night person has been interesting and frankly pretty tiring. But it's also been pretty great… Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up (22)
