Gen Con Guest Pages and Plans

Posted on 16:31, June 10th, 2009 by Matt Forbeck

It’s on the internet, so it must be official. I’m once again to be an Industry Insider Guest of Honor at Gen Con this summer. That means you’ll be able to find me roaming Indianapolis from August 12–16, hunting for games, books, and friends like a hungry dog. Once again, I’ll be part of a great crew this year, including Richard Borg, Reiner Knizia, Matt Wilson, and my fellow Alliterates member Stan! My seminar schedule isn’t set yet, but I’ll post it here once it is—or you can find it on my Gen Con guest page then too.

The guys at Reactor 88 Studios also have a huge event in the works to promote the Brave New World movie we’re working on. I don’t have firm details on this yet, but once I do, you’ll be the next to know. Either way, I hope to see you at the show!

I’ll see you at the convention (probably sometime before then too). We’re even running a Gen Con Contest:

How does one get to be a guest at GenCon? I guess my current strategy of waiting to be asked isn’t working. . . .

I waited for them to ask me the first time, several years back, but these days I contact them early in the year and offer up my services. I’d feel guilty about taking a slot, but they have many spots for the Industry Insider track—and I have such a blast doing it. It really is my favorite time of the year.
