PAX East 2018: Day Two

Posted on April 8, 2018 by Matthew

So many changes for my sixth year of PAX East. For the first time since 2012 it is just Andrew and I making the trip to Boston. Truth be told, I actually miss the company – no fancy dinners at … Continue reading →

We lost an hour of sleep last night, and I’m already running on fumes. The weather hasn’t gotten much better either. We’re at the con at about 9:30, so I have time to line up for the floor opening. Andrew recommended … Continue reading →
