Uh, everything's under control. Situation normal.

I'm still here, promise. It's been a busy few weeks, but not in a bad way. Lots of social engagements, some work for Extra Life and just life in general. Work is...well, work. I put in my time and then off to bigger and better things.

So Extra Life's national event is coming up on November 7th and 8th. I spent Sunday at the Portland Comic Expo recruiting gamers for Extra Life, and it was a blast! I got to talk to a lot of people, and the expo was great. It was only its second year, but it was already much bigger than the year before. I got an amazing local artist Ben Bishop at bishart.net to do a Star Wars concept cover with his interpretation of Han Solo. It came out so great! Here it is -

 

 Ben is a great guy, he donated some original art (A great Casey Jones Sketch from TMNT) to last year's Tabletop Game Marathon for Extra Life. We can't wait to see more great stuff from him in the future. It's nice to see local artists doing such amazing work!

In case you missed the announcement, the date for the next Tabletop Game Marathon is going to be April 29-30, 2016. We've started planning and already have some donations lined up! Outstanding!
