I just decided that I will in fact be going to PAX. This is not the amazing news. The amazing news is the reason why I made this decision.
I was on the fence about going to PAX. It is not necessarily the best convention for me to go to from a writing perspective. True, one could say the same thing about GenCon, however that has a large amount of crossover between the literary world and the gaming world. To me, PAX has always been more about a convention where I have fun rather than a convention where I go as an author. I make a clear distinction in my head before I go to any convention - am I going as Dylan Birtolo the author, or am I going as Dylan Birtolo the gamer/fantasy fan? This one definitely falls into the latter. And there is only so much "convention time" available in my schedule. Especially considering that my impression of PAX that it is often more about the digital side of gaming, I have not been a frequent attendee.
However, I just found out that the Seattle Knights might be performing there. I am not sure if I can disclose anything, but I do know that if all goes according to plan, I will be there as a performer. So, since I am there already performing, I figure I might as well attend the con. Not to mention, it is EXTREMELY exciting to know that I will be there performing... And now I must go before I say too much and get in trouble. Heck, I still need to be cast for the part! |
