: Pirate Jenny is under way!
posted by Emily
There will be a new group in town at GenCon Indy this year. In the tradition of PlayCollective and Design Matters, six gaming companies and a gang of enthusiastic gamers will hit the decks as Pirate Jenny in August. It's a great crew, though some folks will be taking part remotely. Curse this downturn in the economy! Here's the personae and games that we'll have in tow:
- Emily Care Boss of Black and Green Games, with Sign in Stranger, first human colony on an alien world, and RPG = Role Playing Girl, a zine about women and gaming.
- Julia Bond Ellingboe of Stone Baby Games, with Tales of the Fisherman's Wife, a game of demons, flirtation and temptation.
- Anna Kreider of Tasty Bacon Games, with Thou Art but a Warrrior, a Polaris Mod, and her fantastic original art.
- Danielle Lewon of Cream Alien Games, with Kagematsu, a game of samurai, honor, desperation and love.
- Kat and Michael S. Miller, of Incarnadine Press, with Serial Homicide Unit, the killer is out on the streets tonight.
- Michelle Mishko, expert GM and cat wrangler, kicking ass and taking names.
- Terry Hope Romero, long-time gamer and vegan cook extraordinaire, to demo and raise a ruckus.
- Elizabeth Shoemaker of Two Scooters Press, with Homecoming, one soldier's story.
Plus of course, the older games of all these folks. It's a grand thing to see so many games from women! A sign of the times.
We've got a blog where we'll post updates:

We'll be at Booth 2023. Come visit!

So, hang on. Does this mean that the final version of Sign In Stranger will be available? That's not just an ashcan? |

Yay! Thanks everyone. Dangit Matt and Fred. How are we going to have fun if you're not there?! Seth: I've finally got the rules for playing 1-3 sessions down, but am still going for the gold on the long term game. So it's still an ashcan, but on the way to the final! |

Very frickin' cool. Wish I could be there, without actually doing all the, you know, con stuff. |

We'll have to arrange some kind of other rendezvous sometime. How close are you to Madison, WI? |

Wow! I hope you have a great time at that booth! How I'd like to see a "womanned" booth at a con, I hope the idea spreads thanks to your example! |
