Tonight was the Thompson/Charles River Media author appreciation cocktail. It ran concurrent to the IGDA Annual Meeting so I didn't get there until 7:30, an hour and a half late but with an hour to spare. Same old same old mainly - although it was interesting to see some Thompson people there as well, like Dave and Kevin for example. I actually didn't stay long enough to meet any of the Thompson people, since I had to leave around 8, but I made the rounds and said my hellos. Here's a gallery.
