Our CONvergence Schedules: Where We’ll Be and How You Can Join Us!
The entire male crew will be at CONvergence this 4th of July weekend. Why the guys? We drew straws. Or it was entirely random. Whichever sounds more interesting. In any case, I’ve taken the liberty to compile a day-by-day schedule of all of our activities, whether as a group OR as individuals. Some things may be added to this in the near future (walk-by sessions, etc.). See the official CONvergence schedule for details about these panels (and others).

It’s likely they’ll be semi-random due to our bizarre schedules and the various interviews we’ll be conducting. The best way to get involved in a Walk-By session is to pay attention to our Twitter feed, which is where we’ll announce full details (location, etc.).
