August has been a very busy month so far. Charlie has been to England and back for Continuum and is now getting ready for Gen Con. Fergie has shipped a ton of orders. William is hard at work finishing off Voodoo Virus & Pulp Cthulhu, and I've been doing the email thing and waiting on word of Morocco.


GEN CON Indy August 14 - 17.

Chaosium won't have a booth of it's own at Gen Con 2008 after all. Our books can be found at the Adventure Retail booth (#1621). The scheduled Cthulhu Masters Tournament, Novus Ordo Seclorum Tournament, M.U. Skulls events, and You Too Can Cthulhu events are still being run by our heroic Keepers! We sent a bunch of prizes to the event staffers earlier in the year.

Charlie will be wandering Gen Con so keep an eye out for him. In fact, if you have a digital camera/camera phone snap a shot of him and send it my way to enter the Charlie Sightings contest. http://www.chaosium.com/article.php?story_id=354.
