The long promised GenCon report is up. I did it through pictures. They’re all up on our Facebook page. I had a great time at the convention. I got to meet Greg in person as well as Christine – one of my fellow artists in SpiderForest. Wizards also released my book Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue. It got a very good review on EN World. I’m so excited.

Chapter 5, Page 2 is up. Mathilde goes shopping and doesn’t like what she overhears at the marketplace. To see a preview of what Mathilde does next, vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics. I’m afraid that I don’t have a convention report for you from GenCon. I have knee surgery tomorrow so I’m a little distracted. I’ll do my best to get the report up for the Friday update.

Page 7 of Law of the Riverside Part 2 is up. This concludes Ald’s tale of how and why he came to Saronne. My thanks to Natalie Baaklini for bringing it to life with her incredible art. She did a fabulous job, especially considering that I asked her to pick up coloring duties on top of the vignettes. She’s a woman of miracles.

We start Chapter 5 on Monday. It’s titled Ill-Gotten Gains. To see Brittany’s inks for the cover, vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.

Diane and I leave for GenCon tomorrow. I’ll be away until Sunday night, running the new iteration of D&D. It looks really good. I’m really excited about sharing it with new players. Brittany will be doing the journal entry on Friday. So you’re in for a treat.

Page 6 of Law of the Riverside Part 2 is up. One of the Phoenix Men asks, “You’re no lawman. What’s this to you anyway?” Ald answers with acts, not words. To see a preview of the final page of Law of the Riverside Part 2, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comic. It’s well worth it. I think it might be Naty’s best panel for the entire vignette.

GenCon is coming up this week. I leave on Wednesday. This is going a great convention. I have a book being released (Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue) and I’m judging a lot of D&D Next, the new version of D&D. It’s a very good system. I’m looking forward to running it and sharing the wonder and imagination with as many people as possible.

In addition to Snow by Night, I do freelance work for Wizards of the Coast.This month, I have a new book coming out. Menzoberranzan – City of Intrigue. This book describes the legendary city of the dark elves of the Forgotten Realms and contains rules for playing drow. What? You want to see some excerpts with incredible art? Sure, I can do that. Chapter 1: Campaign of Intrigue, Chapter 2: The Way of Lolth, Chapter 3: Drow Factions, Chapter 4: The City of Spiders, Chapter 5: The North Dark, and Chapter 6: Be a Drow. Enjoy!

Page 3 of Law of the Riverside Part 2 is up. Mathurin and Ald confront the Phoenix Men. To see how well this goes, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comic.

As you may have heard, Otakon topped 32,000 attendees this year. That’s a lot of anime fans in one place. The costumes were fantastic. Homestuck has a lot of fans. I would estimate that 5% of the attendess were dressed as trolls from Homestuck. This is easier a testament to the popularity of the webcomic or the ease of creating a Homestuck troll costume. It’s probably a mixture. Either way, I’m glad to see a webcomic getting so much love and attention.

Brittany and I met a lot of great artists at the show. There was the usual suspects, including Shazzbaa of Runewriters and Dirk Tiede of Paradigm Shift, and I got to see Erin McManness who did all our prints. I also met Savannah and Andrew of Amya and Cari of Tiolet Genie. One of my personal heroes, Lora Innes of The Dreamer was there as well. I took a lot of pictures so go check them out on our Facebook page.
