Pennsic 52

Ah, yes. Pennsic. It’s been a few weeks, and I’ve been re-integrating with the world. But I want to take some time to reflect on it at least a little. Overall, my war was less busy than usual. I had been busy finishing the release of the Hold the Door Open album when the signups…

A week from release

It’s been an intensely busy last few weeks.
