Some nifty convention-only booklet?

Only one more month.
How was the convention?

Oh thank God, I can start sleeping again.
I can't wait to harass y'all at GenCon!
HuH?
[KA is not in touch with the industry comings and goings]
When is it?
Oh wait, there are many conventions: Origin, GenCOn, ????
Forget I asked.... just please hurry up and get me my Pathfinder....
Yep. Had lotsa fun at the seminar. My brother sat in on it with me, and the seminar helped win him over to Pathfinder, thus infecting a few other skeptical D&D buds of ours that he contacted at Origins.
A great show, covered a lot of ground, and gave enough tantalizing snippets to keep our interests piqued.
Yeah, that Burnt Offerings preview is exceptional looking, too. Surely will be worth it for anyone to explore--even if only as a stand-alone module, or "backmatter" (the newest addition to my lexicon).
Especially nice to get author input from Nic Logue and Greg A. Vaughan.
One missed point: PDF free to month by month subscribers.
