Depending on how long you have been a reader here, you know that the biggest inside joke here is that whenever I say I’ll stop posting for some time (for whatever reason), it’s usually the best sign that I’m on the verge of starting a posting storm. No wonder I wrote 400 posts in one year.
I am however leaving on vacation next Thursday. I’ll be spending 5 days camping with the whole family (away from electricity and Wifi) and then I’ll have one day to prepare my baggage for Gen Con.
Until then, I still have to get ready for the convetion as I have the following to prepare:
- I have to read some Paizo Pathfinder Society material and I’ll DM an adventure a few times.
- I have to get ready to be a DM for the Ascension of the Drow
- I have to finish preping for my Drunken D&D game that I’ll run for my RPG blogger buddies Dave the Game, Bartoneus, Yax, Dante, Stupid Ranger, Vanir and Bob Younce
- We’ll find a way to chronicle all that craziness and letting you know about it.
- We have a few more details to work out for our GM-Fu: Session Prepping seminar on Saturday
- On top of that I’m participating in a RPG blogger panel on Saturday (thankfully no prep).
- I also have to make a 5th level D&D 4e character for Stupid Ranger’s Out of the Box madness on Sunday Morning
- I’ll also play in DNAPhil’s Iron Heroes game.
Damn, I’m already tired just thinking about all that.
So that means that I don’t plan to write anything serious/deep until I leave for camping. As for Gen Con, I’m not going there as a journalist. While I will have my laptop with me, I don’t plan to post about it while I’m there. I might still do it, but it’s not on my to do list.
Contrary to some other better organized bloggers I didn’t write articles in advance to be posted every day I’m gone nor did I seriously think to ask other bloggers to guest post here. (If someone wants to volunteer, email me at chattydm@chattydm.net, I’ll set you up with an account)
So here’s the deal, I invite all bloggers who read this blog to come and drop a comment here whenever they post a new article.
I’ll see you after Gen Con.
“preping for my Drunken D&D game”
Isn’t this an oxymoron?
That’s what I keep telling him…
😛
Yes, that may very well be.
When you’ll read about it you’ll see it was well worth it.

Famous. Last. Words.
It’d be nice to be able to write articles in advance. I usually have trouble posting because I don’t have a topic to post about. Of course, I don’t like posting topics that I feel are common knowledge or present only one side of the equation, so I can blame myself sometimes.

I will be contributing at least one Guest Blog post. My own contribution to the “So you wanna write a RPG blog?” series, on what NOT to do, based on my own painful experience with FAIL.
Enjoy that vacation!
Wow, that’s going to be a quality post. I’ve been reading UncleBear for over a decade.
I’ll be contributing a trope post during the Chatty one’s absence. I’ve been meaning to do one for a while, but I finally have a deadline to kick my ass.

Sounds like a lot of work, but a lot of fun work!
I would love to write a guest blog post. I’ll get in touch with you via email with some ideas.

It’s a pity you are heading off for a week. You are certainly one of the more prolific blog updaters in my daily reading, and that’s a chunk of time I may have to actually spend *working*.
Have a fun trip regardless, and I hope the con is fun times. Con writeups are often enjoyable reads.
