A couple of weeks ago I attended NerdCon Stories here in town at the Minneapolis Convention Center. It was a pretty great experience in some ways. It was the first convention of it's type and the panels and MainStage performances were especially fun. I am used to attending a convention that has stuff going constantly for 4 days straight, 24 hours a day: this was not like that. However, what it lacked in insanity it made up for with quality. One of my favorite parts of the weekend was a portion of the MainStage performance put on by Paul of Paul and Storm fame. The point of this convention was to explore on many levels why it is stories matter. But you can't do that without having some background information. So if you want to learn and laugh and love a completely nerdtastic book joke, watch this video:
