GenCon Seminar: All Grown Up and Still Gaming

Image via Wikipedia

Back in April, Gnome Stew posted a list of their events for GenCon. Among them is a seminar titled "All Grown Up and Still Gaming." Gnome Stew's DNAphil pinged me about this seminar as he thought it might be of interest to us and our readers.

If you're not able to make it to GenCon (like the rest of us here at The Dice of Life), the seminar might be recorded and made available after the event; we'll be sure to link to it if it is available. Additionally, look forward to link to an outline of the seminar as well as an interview with DNAphil and other members of the panel right here on The Dice of Life.

If you happen to be going to GenCon and would like to attend this seminar, here are the details of the event.
