Conventions! This weekend, we will have a booth at SakuraCon in Seattle, manned by Experiments #1 and #2, with me (Kaja) hanging out a lot of the time. We will ALSO have a booth at NorWesCon , manned by our old friend Alice, with Phil hanging out a lot of the time. This is going to be a wild weekend. Yes.

Cheapass Games is running a KickStarter Campaign! Now you can own your very own Mystical Tome of Cheapass Games! Back in the early 1990's, when Magic the Gathering was new, Phil and I shared a house with James Ernest and Carol Monahan. James created Cheapass Games during that time, and now, nearly thirty years later, he's putting out a gorgeous, huge, bound collection of all the games. He's also writing up notes on the inspiration behind the games, and some of the history connected with them. It's going to be fantastic. I've got a sample chapter sitting in my living room, and I'm really looking forward to reading the rest. I've watched the company grow and change over the years. It's hard to believe it's been so long, I can still hear the paper cutter going as James cut out endless playtest cards. Their Kickstarter has already funded! I hope you'll all check it out, it's not our company or product, but it has been a huge presence in our lives. (Also, watch for a cameo by the Foglio household fireplace in the "Obligatory How to Play" section. We are so honored.) wwww
