I demoed this today at #gencon and was so disappointed! You play as the houses and try to fight off the revolution. Very little of the magic is used. Really seems like a sell out. Boooo

tracey38 Sorry it wasn't that fun! 6y
jfalkens Did you get to try The Name of the Wind one? 6y
knittedgnome @jfalkens I haven't seen it yet! This is crazy huge. I'm going to look for it today. 6y

Name of the Wind | Patrick Rothfuss

I'm getting pretty excited for Gencon next week. It's a board game convention but there are so many things for fantasy readers! Like this game with a Name of the Wind expansion. Plus I just signed up to play a Mistborn game! And I'm meeting Anne Bishop! Eek!!

knittedgnome @jpmcwisemorgan they will have it to demo but I'm not sure if they have it for sale too. I'm guessing they will. Booth #1639 This is only my second time going but we had so much fun our first year! If you would like to try and meet up for a minute email me! terarowe@gmail.com 6y
jpmcwisemorgan Excellent! 6y
Eyelit So cool! 6y
jfalkens I saw this! I am so tempted! Grrr stupid car! 6y
knittedgnome @jfalkens I wish I could offer you a ride!! Gibson and two friends are riding with me so the only seat is the tiny middle one :( 6y
GondorGirl @knittedgnome @jpmcwisemorgan and I are going to try to meet up at GenCon. Want to join us? 6y
knittedgnome @GondorGirl yes!! That would be so fun! 6y
GondorGirl @knittedgnome Are you doing any of the author signings? 6y
knittedgnome @GondorGirl yes! Only one is Anne Bishop Thursday at 3pm 6y
knittedgnome That's literally the only thing that I have for sure committed to. 6y
GondorGirl @knittedgnome @jpmcwisemorgan Why don't you two email me and I'll start a message so the three of us can try to figure something out. PirateColey@yahoo.com 6y
jpmcwisemorgan @knittedgnome @GondorGirl Apparently I‘m trying to get all the autographs. I‘ve actually decided to drop Bishop & Cameron, Mack & Martin, and Broaddus & Waggoner. I have tickets for all of those if anyone wants them and we can figure how to meet up. I have some talks I want to make it to but I might not. If I‘m all booked up I can‘t wander around and try to buy stuff that I can‘t take home on the plane. 6y
jpmcwisemorgan @jfalkens Boo! I wish you could make it. 6y
jfalkens @jpmcwisemorgan me too lol its ok @knittedgnome 🤗 6y

I thought I'd share this piece of #LiteraryArt with everyone doing the Name of the Wind buddy read. I met Donato, the artist, at #GenCon earlier this year.

And here's the #GenCon stack signed just buy Misty. She was super accommodating and let me wait until the end of the signing (so nobody got left out) where she speed-signed the last 18 books. All together she signed 28 books for me. I am so over the moon about meeting her! When meeting a favorite author I always fear they won't be as great as I imagined, but Misty and Larry were AMAZING! I'll be fangirling about this for years.

GondorGirl @MrBook Thanks! I honestly wasn't expecting to get them all signed... I'm still a little giddy front the experience! 7y
MrBook That is so incredible!!! This is a *very* unique set now, you know. 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻 7y
iread2much That‘s so cool! 6y

At #GenCon yesterday I met Mercedes Lackey and Larry Dixon! They were so beyond nice and signed ALL of my books (even though they were pressed for time). Misty and Larry were my first introduction to fantasy novels. I had a total fangirl moment!

1. I managed to meet one of my favorite authors (Mercedes Lackey) at #GenCon!
2. Up north (West Branch, MI). It's the place I go to unplug and de-stress.
3. Apple pie! Warm with ice cream.
4. Opening weekend of the Michigan Renaissance Festival!
5. I love meeting new people!

MicheleinPhilly Those Michigan tourism commercials always make me 😍. 7y
GondorGirl @MicheleinPhilly And the commercials aren't lying! Michigan really is that beautiful! I know I'm only in Ohio now, but sometimes it feels like another world from where I grew up... 7y
