Hi everyone!
It’s been a long time since I wrote about a convention in detail on this blog. That’s okay; to be honest, I think these can get a bit samey.
When I was invited* by the incomparable John Dodd to Dragonmeet Spring (also referred to as “Call to Adventure”, I think?), I said yes – an opportunity to exhibit and run my games as demos is not something I often fail to take, as many of you know.
I knew it would be a well-run event – Ten years of attending Dragonmeet in December has taught me that the team is experienced and dedicated, and I consider more several of them friends (and those I don’t know well enough I still have enormous respect for!).
What I wasn’t ready for was how much joy it brought me to demonstrate my games, particularly my relatively under-exhibited Card Games, to people who were so happy to be there and have something to try out. It was a genuine honour to meet so many awesome people who wanted to learn more about my games, whether they were already gamers or looking for something new!
All in all, it was a thoroughly enjoyable day and I’m hopeful that there will be another one next year. Thank you to the convention team and all of the guests who chose to join us!
– Ed
