I really enjoyed participating in the Candlekeep panel. It was a nice reminder of what I loved about working on the Realms line, both as an editor and a writer.
Cheers,

You are very welcome. And thank you for The Ring of Winter and Artuc Cimber.
I'll echo this. And if I've never mentioned it before, I liked that Artus rented a place from Razor John the fletcher. |

Glad I listened to you all and went. I had a great time and enjoyed listening to every word.
Thanks to you Erik, you did a great job. It was nice to get to meet you again, even thought I forgot to ID myself to you as the red walker, I did get a goody and a signed bookmark! |

You are very welcome. And thank you for The Ring of Winter and Artuc Cimber. Thank you for all your work on those great anthologies. And thank you for stopping in....I wish I had the chance to introduce myself and shake your hand,but it was very late....and as iI was not sure if you guys would ever get out of there, I didnt want to hold you up anymore!
In my realms I would like to see a Realms of Sundering anthology. Focused on story telling. Edited by and featuring a story by you. And while I am daydreaming....a novel with Artus if you have the time

Well, super underwhelmed here at the moment. My keynote address consists of a black screen. Bummer.

I thought I would. Let's go see what's to see! |

Hmm.....if its über epic....I would try and grab an extra to ship to our friend The Sage.....but I think it might cost me $90 to ship it.........but if it was once in a life time, kick a$$... And all that jazz.......I would try to hook him up.
I'm humbled by the thought, Red. Thank you immensely for thinking of me -- especially since, like Krash, I'm one of the furtherest scribes from this grand event, and getting the requisite time off work and travelling such long distances [considering we'll need extra time-off for both travel and a period to adjust for time-zone differences], isn't always as simple for us folk down here to accomplish.
Of course, if you are indeed willing to make this shipment, then I'd be happy to provide suitable recompense for your financial trouble. 
Worry not, friends. We organizers will be having a discussion about how many goodies to set aside for the Candlekeep administrators (shipping arrangements to be decided later). The giveaway will be strictly one to a customer, though; we simply don't have enough for anyone to take an extra one...
I, for one, am very glad to read this, and I should gladly reimburse any relevant costs.
And I appreciate y'all doing this, too. |

Ah, okay. That's certainly fair enough.
We appreciate any and all arrangements you can make, Garen. Thank you. |

It'd be much easier to ship to me!
Or me!
I wasn't trying to play favorites! Neither did I forsee a potential "can of worms" opening |

I really have no excuse now, when I mentioned the seminar! my wife interrupted me and said " that really sounds like something you would enjoy, why don't you head down there tomorrow night and I'll watch the kids"
It's either her guilt for relocating my novels or she is just that great(or a combo of the two)
So I should will be there
And I will make sure the iPad is charged up so I can post here what Candlekeepers I get the pleasure of meeting. Last time I made it I think I met 7 or 8 including authors who post here. I'm hoping for solid double digits this time. |

As I bundle up my varied gaming and costume junk (and my wife and another of my gamers and their junk!) into the SUV for the 14 hour drive from Connecticut to Indiana, I want to take one last opportunity to remind my fellow Candlekeepers of the Realms game I will be running at the convention:
My little adventuring opportunity: RPG1238454 Play Yourself Adventures (in Faerun) (https://registration.gencon.com/events/38454). It is Saturday night from 6 to whenever (midnight at the earliest).
Please take a peek and give it some consideration. I'll be in the crowd watching the Candlekeep event for certain, so if you have any questions, please do ask me when you see me (I'll make it a point to be obvious, think 'what would a cross between Raistlin and Manshoon dress like?' and you'll find me. Lol) I'd love to meet some of the august scribes hereabouts.
See you at the Con!

I think just going for the CK meet-up would be worth your while.
I would love to go to the CK meetup. I would absolutely love it. Sadly, it's not in the cards this year.  Such is life sometimes.
Three kids are difficult for even a short journey, and an evening journey is a nightmare with the youngest. Sadly, Mrs. Greycastle has a work thing Thursday, so I'm out of luck (and dice, unfortunately) for that.
I'm hoping that, next year, I bring my two eldest children to GenCon with me. They'd love it (and that's just the exhibition hall). They'd hate the seminars, but what are you going to do?

I will be lurking online. While Indy is only 2 hours away, I have to take care of the offspring, as my wife has to be @ work and @ a bridal shower this weekend.
I hope news travels fast.
