It’s an understatement to say I’m ridiculously grateful for the many, many folks who are generous with their time and donations, helping make my now-annual Insane Charity Bike Ride meet its fundraising goals. Prime example – Neil Gaiman wrote an utterly delightful limerick, just for supporters. Last year I illustrated it, and backers received it as a mini-print. Here it is, […]
Gen Con: the best four days of not seeing even an eighth of the friends you’d love to have seen… Yup, Gen Con 2016 is in the books, and it was a wild, crazy, insane time, with huge crowds, giant lines, and a total lack of sleep. And that’s just fighting for a Delta flight home! Ba-dum-kshhhh! […]
A quick update: With nine days to go, I’m amazed and delighted to say that you guys have raised 94% of the fundraising goal for my Insane Charity Bike Ride 2015 that I sort of feared might be impossible to hit! Suffice to say, I’m pretty confident I’ll be wearing the duck, again. This has been a busy summer, […]
Gen Con – the Best Four Days of Not Even Coming Close to Seeing All the Friends You’d Have Liked to Have Seen – is over. At least for 2015. For me, it was whirlwind of meetings and signings and demos, with only one game actually played: Will Hindmarch’s wonderful “Who The #@%! Is My D&D Character?!“ […]
I’ll be at Gen Con Thursday, Friday and Saturday, next week. To the best of my knowledge, here’s my schedule, and some of the new releases I’ve worked on that you’ll find there: WEDNESDAY: I arrive late, but I’ll try and make it t the Diana Jones Award party. THURSDAY 1 – 2 pm Signing, ASMODEE (Booth #1627) […]
Kick Down the Door! Design a T-shirt! Win – wait, WHAT? – a Thousand Bucks! UPDATE: Steve Jackson Games has extended the deadline to December 9! SO WHO’S EVER DREAMED OF BEING LIKE ME? (Crickets chirping). OK, let’s phrase that differently: who’s ever wanted to design your own Munchkin T-shirt? And who’s ever wanted to […]
The Colors of Ackbeer! Thanks to Steve Hamaker, cartoonist and award-winning colorist, plus all-around great guy, Admiral Ackbeer now looks super-spiffy! Here’s my original version: Color theory has never been my thing. Coloring has never been my thing. The colorists I work with are like alchemists, to me. Magical alchemists. Possibly with fairy wings. Riding unicorns, […]
Insane Charity Bike Ride UPDATE 2! HEY, Muskrat-Boy, what’s the deal with those fine postcards? And what’s going on with that Insane Charity Bike Ride of yours? I’m so glad you asked! With two-and-a-half weeks to go until the Bike the Barns ride (eek! eek! eek!), we blew past the original goal of $5,000 raised! However, overall […]
So I’ve been looking over my Gen Con commitments, and apparently the only time I’ll have to walk the floor is 2015. My schedule filled up quickly, in part because eight games and game supplements I worked on are being released between now and the end of Summer. (Yes, eight. Look, I kinda went crazy between Business Manager […]
Ewok or Wookie? Last week, while staying with my pal Steve, I couldn’t help but notice his dogs , Lambeau and Lovey – LOOK, He enjoys football, OK? – bore a striking resemblance to…let’s not mince words here…Ewoks. Excitedly, I took a couple of snaps, and sent them to my Ewok-Crazed Daughter, Age 5. Seriously. She’s all about the Ewoks. […]
