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:

  • His Gen Con seminars
  • The Crusader Road, his first Pathfinder novel
  • Possibility of a second Pathfinder novel
  • His next book
  • His day job

You can find Mike on Twitter.

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.

Matt Takes a walk through the Undead Slayer’s Guide, which was an interesting surprise.  Certainly not what was expected, but still a treat.

 

 

While I was expecting this book to be purely about the destruction of the undead, I’m glad they took the approach they did.

At Gen Con 2014 I had the chance to sit down with Sean Brown and chat about Spurs and Alien Uprising.  Spurs is a do it all kind of Western game.  While Alien Uprising is all about crashing on the wrong planet.  This interview was a lot of fun, a lot of wierd things happen during it that distract us.
