Little haremy at the beginning, but good fun parody and action-adventure. Now with a whole anime dream scene.

LitRPG News

The Hear Now Festival has announced its schedule for the event which is scheduled for June 6-9, 2019. It’s a convention that focuses on audio stuff like audiobook narration, music, and podcasts.

This year there is a GameLit awards category for the audiobook and Dakota Krout will apparently be presenting the award. In addition, there will be a GameLit/LitRPG panel will be moderated by me! On the panel will be Charles Dean, Dave Willmarth. On the narrator side: Jeff Hays, Justin Thomas James, Annie Ellicot, and Andrea Parsneau. Other folks that are going, Dawn Chapman (she’s nominated for an award).
