Mike invited me to his “palatial” suite at Gen Con 2014, and I happily accepted the invite. It isn’t every day that an aspiring author has the chance to speak with a best selling author about the industry.
Mike and I discussed:
You can find Mike on Twitter.
One of the people I wanted to interview at Gen Con was Marc Tassin. Marc is the director of the Writer’s Symposium at Gen Con. Which as some of you may know has been the driving force behind me as a blogger.
Here are the highlights:

It is always a pleasure to talk with Erik. I look forward seeing all of them at Paizo Con this summer.
One of the games I got to try out at Gen Con was Hero Brigade Games. It is a pretty cool looking card game. I will have to play it a few more times to really let you know what I think.
I look forward to more Hero Brigade.
I had the chance to grab a demo of Aline Frontiers from Gen Con 2014. A game that I have wanted to look at for a long time.
I have to admit from articles I read about Alien Frontiers I expected it to have a much larger learning curve. I found the game to be delightful.
I approached Kevin at Gen Con and asked to do an interview. He was happy to chat about everything Palladium Book does while dropping some eggs about the future.
I’m looking forward to some great things for Robotech, Palladium, and Rifts.
Matt had the chance to speak Ben Loomes from Syrenscape. Ben is the creator of this unique piece of audio software that will liven every game table.
Ben has a great plan for this product, that I believe, will ensure it is around for a long time.
The new Walking Dead Dice game from Cryptozoic. Demonstrated by the Cryptozoic team at Gen Con.
I can’t wait to get my hands on this.
One of the highlights of my Gen Con Experience was stopping by the GreenBrier Games booth and learning about Yashima. The first part of this experience was meeting with Tony, the game developer. We did an interview where he discusses the basic mechanics of the game
I fell in love with that description.
