So I’m heading to America for a few days… 6 days actually, arriving Wednesday and returning Monday. It’s for a big gaming convention that used to be held in Chicago and has since moved to Milwaukee called “Adepticon.” I went back in 2018 and 2019, it was fantastic, but this will be my first time back since then.
I’m not… crazy… about going to the USA right now since there’s a lot of tension between them and my fellow Canadians, but the tickets were expensive enough that I have fully committed to the Sunk Cost Fallacy at this point. But that’s fine, I’ll probably have a really good time, and more importantly… get a lot of work done! Honestly, one of my legit favourite things about being a writer is my ability to bring my work with me wherever I go. It makes it very hard to have actual, honest-to-goodness “time off” but that’s compensated by being able to write in beautiful places and whenever I want to. In the balance it still works out in my favour, I think.
I have a stack of models I need to have painted up for the convention tournaments, so I’m going to get back to that, but I’ll try to post at least once (maybe, gasp, twice!) while I’m over there. Nine and a half hours of driving to get to the convention… I am actually kinda looking forward to that too!
Hope everyone out there is staying safe and healthy!
