My favorite thing at any convention is catching up with all the wonderful people I only get to see in person a few times a year. So here's Part 1 of my #GenCon collection of memories of those moments, posted on my Instagram because that's really the picture place! www.instagram.com/p/DbqiVWMlM8...

I'm very happy to be back home in Seattle with my partner, though it's sad that once again I return from #GenCon to the entire state covered in wildfire smoke. I don't like this new summer tradition.

Thank you everyone for another amazing, exciting, exhausting #GenCon! If I saw you, thank you for spending your precious time and energy with me! If I did not see you, I hope to change that next time! For now I'll be at the airport editing photos. May everyone have safe travels home. <3

The hardest part of the last day of #GenCon is trying to catch up with everyone I've yet to see or see more of everyone in general! I'm at the @wizkids.bsky.social booth pretending to be a Ranger till 1pm then around the rest of the day. Let's catch up, & if we took a picture together post it here!

Today I was a part of the GREATEST CROSSOVER OF ALL TIME! #GenCon #dnd #deadpool #helldivers #oboist

I'm at the @wizkids.bsky.social booth all morning then have other meetings and fun things happening this afternoon and evening, so come over and say hi or shoot me a message so we can hang out!

Who knew all my practice taking pictures of animals in my backyard would come in handy at the Carnival at the @dndbeyond.com Tower! In between enjoying the games I had plenty of critters for pictures! The almiraj was cute & the beholder VERY grumpy. I really wanted to take home a dragon egg! #GenCon

It's day 2 of #GenCon and after a morning seeing some lovely friends I'm back at @wizkids.bsky.social photobooth! Pick up a ticket and come to the D&D Tower and get a picture with my displacer beast kitten friend! #WizKidsGenCon26

It's been a wild, amazing first day at #GenCon! I got lots of pictures with great friends. Now I'm sitting at the end of the day in the #Candlekeep panel enjoying folks geeking out about #dnd & #ForgottenRealms and I'm happy having time to catch up! If I missed you today, hope I see you tomorrow!

Hotel checked into. Dinner acquired. Business taken care of. Now I think I need to pick up a snack, see some friends, and get some sleep. Because tomorrow is #GenCon day 1!!

Other folks already do great unboxings. I'm gonna become the go-to for RE-boxings! #wizkids

Tomorrow I leave for #GenCon so I wanted to get this next #TalesFromWoodcreek part up before I left as it seams we're at a pause point. Maybe I'll find 9 other people with letters to #UseTheKeyToSetUsFree at GenCon? I'll walk around the con with a key in my pocket for 4 days for Deborah Ann Woll. 😆

My flights to #GenCon begins at my favorite spot in SEATAC, the train to the BS gates. 😄 I hope everyone has safe and easy travels, and see you all soon!

I FOUND THE KEY! The #TalesFromWoodcreek puzzle cypher has been solved and now I'm fulfilling every Gen X kids dream of becoming a hacker! Who knew Deborah Ann Woll would time travel to the 1920s so I could go to the 1990s! What did I #UseTheKeyToSetUsFree and discover? Stay tuned to find out!

Drew up a postcard to give out at the next comic con I table at. "The Spirit of Kengence" #drawing #marvelcomics

The #TalesFromWoodcreek capital letters lead me to another puzzle! This one a bit more complicated, and while I knew I need to #UseTheKeyToSetUsFree first I needed to find the right key! I spent a chunk of my weekend having fun solving puzzles for Tales From Woodcreek. How about you?

Today is a CR 10 as many struggle to recover from SDCC, prep for GenCon, do both, or deal with the FOMO of not attending either. Also it's Monday.

The #TalesFromWoodcreek puzzle solving has begun! First the excitement, a dramatic introduction letter reading, & admission of my puzzle struggles. But Deborah Ann Woll is a master puzzle crafter so I know this will be fantastic! Did you also got a letter? Let's work together! #UseTheKeyToSetUsFree

It's a bit early but here's my @officialpax.bsky.social West schedule! Very excited for the following panels, especially to chop it up with Sam on that Friday night! I don't think any of these rooms are streamed, but perhaps recorded? I'll find out closer to the date.

Back for a follow up mammogram. After 4 images the radiologist asked for an ultrasound. Then came in themselves to do another ultrasound. Then they tag teamed it! I asked if my breast was being difficult. Good news is that got a laugh. Great news is nothing is wrong & cleared until my next annual!
