Here are some Halloween costume ideas! All of these costumes appeared at DragonCon 2010. Some of these are incredibly elaborate, while others are fairly simple and could be made by you at home with a little time and effort. There were hundreds (if not thousands) of different costumes at DragonCon. These just happen to represent […]

Dragon*Con, my home away from home. I believe this was my 10th appearance at this convention and it was definitely one of the better ones! Attended lots of panels, hung out with my friends, met some celebrities, drank far too much, took over 600 photos, and generally had a great time. Sometime in the near […]

Hey gang – I survived DragonCon 2010! Sorry posts have been light here this week. I’m still absolutely exhausted from DragonCon and fighting off a cold. Normal posting should resume next week. To keep you satisfied until then, I’ve uploaded over 600 pictures from my DragonCon 2010 experience! I was fortunate enough to attend a […]

Some time in the early 1990s, I was fortunate enough to meet Neil Gaiman at DragonCon in Atlanta. He was super-cool and was kind enough to really speak with the fans that were waiting in line for his autograph (not just the lip service some famous people provide). At one point I recall he halted […]

I’ve appeared on several podcasts in the past few months, but have been horribly negligent about giving them a shout-out here. These were all podcasts hosted by my good buddy Michael Bailey (of Views from the Longbox and From Crisis to Crisis). He’s been kind enough to invite me to participate a number of times, […]

Presenting another very special blog entry by my wife, The Irrepressible Gena! Just a little background for you, my wife is not a geek. She’s a wonderful (and gorgeous) normal person. So I thought her perspective would be interesting to share here. Without further ado, The Irrepressible Gena’s thoughts on DragonCon… Labor Day Weekend … […]
