IT’S HERE!!!! Dragon Con officially kicked off this evening in Downtown Atlanta.
This is the first year that I can remember there being programming on Thursday night, but I don’t think anyone is complaining.
Tomorrow is my first official day at the convention, and I will be presenting on not one, not two, but THREE panels tomorrow! If you are coming to Dragon Con and are a listener of the show, please make sure to find me during the weekend to say hello! Here’s a look at where you can find me through the weekend:

Every Labor Day weekend, about 40,000 people crowd the streets and take over the hotels of downtown Atlanta to meet friends, celebrities, cosplay and totally geek out. This year’s event will take place August 31-September 4. Ticket information can be found on the official website.
