We're going to be at GenCon this year, but we're going to be doing things a little differently.
BOOTH: We will be in booth 866, sharing space with the folks at
DriveThruRPG.com. We will be by for signings, chipping in now and then, and the like. Also, we'll have a number of classic and current World of Darkness and Exalted books for sale and news about our upcoming schedule, so please stop by!
TWITTER: Since we'll be roaming, we're going to post our movements on Twitter (because we want to use this opportunity to talk to people like you!). You can follow overall comments at our official account
@wwpublishing, and we'll try to get the guys on the floor to use the hashtag #WWGenCon when they post to their personal accounts. If you want to talk about our presence at the show or about the various things we'll be announcing there, feel free to use that hashtag as well!
SATURDAY PARTY: We're doing our party a little differently this year -- stop by the booth or track us down and the convention for more details.
PANELS: Finally, we'll be in a number of panels during the convention. Here are the official ones, but keep checking at our booth for the latest updates!
