I am a guest at PortConMaine 2014!
PortConMaine is Maine's first, longest running, and largest convention celebrating the hobbies that enrich our lives. Join us for a celebration of geek culture interests including anime, gaming, science fiction, costuming, fantasy, video gaming, boffer combat, comics, pop culture, steampunk, and more! You can catch me at the following events:
- Friday, June 20, 6 p.m. EDT - The Path to Publishing: Publishing a book in any format is now easier than ever before. Mike Tresca -- RPG, fiction, and non-fiction author -- explains his three paths to publishing and how his gaming experience helped him get there. If you've ever thought about writing a book, now's the time. Mike will show you how.
- Saturday, June 21, 7 p.m. EDT - Gamers & Gaming in Business: Ever wondered if you have what it takes to succeed in Corporate America as a gamer? The elements of gaming that make gamers so effective in overcoming obstacles have practical applications in the business world. From tabletop, to massive multi-player online role-playing games, the impact of these games is changing how the next generation of employees views work. This presentation will show why being a gamer gives you a critical advantage in the workplace.
- Sunday, June 22, 9 a.m. EDT - Gaming Through 2020: We are in the midst of a gaming revolution. As social media becomes more prevalent, everything is being turned into a game. The world has changed, uniting people more than ever before even as it fuels other revolutions: of ideas, of governments, of how we perceive each other. Mike Tresca -- social media manager, gamer, and tech enthusiast -- shares how this revolution came about, where we are today, and where gamification will take us into the future.
