Schedule conflicts prevent me from catching any of your panels/signings (can’t really sign my kindle app anyway) so will have to settle for scanning the exhibit hall for significantly large cash/miniature storms. Have fun!
Running Games for one of the companies there. My wife hopes to see you at some point.
Have fun!
I’ll have to tell my Army buddy Milewski to look you up.
The Q&A is in the Westin Grand Ballroom V.
Everything else is also in the Westin.
Don’t miss the Eclipse.
I made the first panel on monsters and vicious critters this morning (I was the gent in the neon yellow shirt). I thought it went really well, the MC did an entertaining job of playing off the gritty realism of the monsters created by the three authors with her experience writing fantasy romances. She admitted that her vampires sparkled. Plus we saw an author not named Butler that is as tall as Larry. He was cheating though, he still had a thick head of hair.
I’ll be at the Q & A tomorrow morning, looking forward to it!
Keep up the good work, Larry. 🙂

Yeah, I saw that discussion and commented on it in another thread. Methinks they’re actually jealous.
And they’re also upset that 3 years of smears hasn’t dented his popularity one bit.
If anything, he’s more popular now than when this whole thing began. And that is just angering to them.
It’s the Antifa Effect. Driving people to their enemies with their own bad behavior.
Since they’ve got me blocked, yet they are so concerned about the state of my career feel free to pass this on:
Thanks for your concern. Sales are doing great. The Siege release was fantastic. I had the best book signing turn outs of my career. I have enough books under contract to keep me busy at two books a year for the next eight years. But don’t worry that I’m working too hard, because I do have some side projects. Since I retired from battling Puppy Related Sadness I bought a big piece of mountainside to develop, and am building a giant house on it, all paid for with my massive royalties. So thanks for your concern about my career, but don’t worry, I’m doing great. 😀

Wow. Just . . . wow.
He shoulda watched the security cam. I found some pictures of him in action. http://preview.tinyurl.com/y8swdvs3
They are a classy bunch. 😀
I just posted that on Facebook, because it’s too funny not to.
Blocked. Can’t see it. But I’m so happy that they are still worried about the state of my career. 😀
I wish I’d seen this pre-Con, I’d have aimed for the panels. This is my first GenCon and it has been mega-overwhelming, I’ve had very little idea of what was going on outside of the little corner I’ve been tangentially involved with helping out this weekend. Still, I was very glad to finally get to shake your hand in person (I was the Army officer who’s apparently a figment of her own imagination and was weird enough to bring her copy of The Christmas Noun for signing). Thanks again for the many hours of entertainment your books have provided to me and the rest of the family.
Awesome to see you again, Larry. The Business Plan panel especially was a nice kick in the pants.
It was good to see you guys again too.
