This weekend, I’ll be attending OddCon in Madison, Wisconsin as a panelist and moderator. Guests include authors J.V. Jones, Robin Laws and Sarah Monette. You may recall we conducted an interview with author and game designer Robin Laws here at FlamesRising.com just recently. Well, Robin is the gaming industry guest of honor at OddCon, which takes place from Friday, April 8th through Sunday, April 10th in Madison, Wisconsin.

In addition to Robin Laws attending OddCon, several familiar faces will also be there including Matt Forbeck, Bill Bodden, John Kovalic and myself. I’ve listed my panels below; for more events, visit the OddCon 2011 programming page and view the schedule.
