Jim and Shannon are still expected to arrive at the Romantic Times Booklovers’ Convention in Columbus, OH, from April 28 to March 2, 2010 — but they’re going to show up later than expected, and will miss their panel appearances today. As reported on Jim’s and Shannon’s twitters, American Airlines goofed up their flight scheduling and failed to make the connecting flight (in Chicago — is that irony?) a possibility. Jim and Shannon are absolutely crushed, but as we understand it will still be trying to make it out for most of the Convention — somehow!

The Dresden Files RPG preorder is entering its fourth week, and continues to go strong — over a thousand copies of the first volume, Your Story, have already been preordered with the second volume, Our World, not far behind. Things are looking great for the game! You can preorder the books at the Evil Hat Webstore, and learn more about the game at the game’s website.
And thanks to a “preview edition” PDF of each book going out right away to the people who preorder, people are already starting to play and discuss the game. You can find a lively discussion of the RPG over on the Dresden Files RPG boards on the Jim Butcher Online forum. Drop on by!
