It’s getting to be convention season, so it’s time for me to tell you where to find me at this year’s Gen Con Writers’ Symposium.

Once again, the Symposium’s panels, workshops, and other events will take place in the second-floor function rooms of the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown hotel, located at 350 West Maryland St., Indianapolis, IN 46225.

If you’re planning attending Gen Con, consider checking out the Writers’ Symposium. If you’re coming to GCWS, I’ll look forward to seeing you at the show and talking shop!
