LitRPG Con

Last but not least, we have another panelist turned sponsor, Bosloe McAnu Author, who graciously donated to the con. Thank you, friend! A lifelong gamer and worldbuilder at heart, Bosloe crafts British LitRPG that mixes rich storytelling with classic RPG mechanics. His web serials on Royal Road earned a loyal following, leading to his debut novel, The Amatherean Tales (Podium, 2025). When not writing or juggling spreadsheets, he lives in Oxfordshire, balancing a family, a full-time career, and a never-ending resistance to side quests.

Make beautiful books with our next generous donor, Vellum! Whether you’re looking to turn your next great work into an e-book, paperback, or hardcover, Vellum makes the process painless. Thanks to Vellum for their charitable gift.

Wow! We cannot say enough kind things about con donor turned volunteer, Shawn Weeks! This con wouldn’t be possible without the help of our volunteers, and it takes a really generous person to donate both their time and their money. Thank you so much, Shawn! You’ve really blown us away.

Thank you so much to panelist, Craig Hamilton, for making a charitable donation to the con for the second year in a row! Craig spends most of his day as a technical sales engineer, translating specifications and talking about IT infrastructure. While writing has been taking up most of his free time lately, Craig also appreciates playing tabletop RPGs or board games with friends. When his inner introvert demands a break from polite company, Craig can be found sprawled on a couch with a good book.

And now a moment for LitRPG’s most loyal fan, Gary Bradley! Thank you so much to Gary for your generous donation to the con. Gary has been a supporter of LitRPG Con since before it was LitRPG Con — back in our short-lived LitRPG Under the Sea days. His generosity is matched by his enthusiasm and passion for the genre. It’s readers like Gary who make this community so special, and we are forever grateful for all that he does.

Thank you so much to Robert Gagnon and Media Goat for serving as the Saturday sponsor of the Mount Princeton room. Media Goat’s presence at the con is a true testament to the global reach of LitRPG! They specialize in seamless distribution, targeted marketing, and culturally attuned localization to connect your stories with eager readers.

We’re especially excited to welcome another new sponsor, Atticus, founded by Dave Chesson! Atticus is sponsoring Mount Yale on Saturday. For those who are unfamiliar, this all-in-one book-writing software is the only editor built by authors for authors. It’s an indie author’s dream! Check out Mount Yale on Saturday afternoon to learn more.

If you’re looking for bonus opportunities to get books and merch signed, look no further than Mount Yale Friday from 2:00-8:00pm, courtesy of sponsor and Featured Guest, David North Books. David is a Pacific Northwest author of LitRPG and cultivation, including the series Guardian of Aster Fall, Wild Era, and River of Fate. He often has new releases that hit the Top 100 on Amazon Kindle. At any particular moment, he is probably lost in a book. You're welcome to join him.

Stop by Mount Princeton Friday or Sunday to hang out with one of our fantastic multipurpose room sponsors, Tantor Audio! Tantor is an industry-leading audiobook publisher for emerging and established authors, and an audio brand of RBmedia, the largest audiobook publisher in the world. With a proven talent for discovering up-and-coming authors and must-have titles, our dedicated team works closely with both traditionally published authors and independent authors to deliver high-quality audio experiences. Thanks so much to Tantor for helping us expand our programming!

One of the many improvements you’ll find at this year’s con is a special room dedicated to Featured Guest signings. Thank you so much to Erick Thiemke aka AlwaysRollsAOne for making it possible! AlwaysRollsAOne has never been known for good luck with dice — that is why he usually chooses to be the DM. A lifelong fantasy/sci-fi fan (aka nerd), he somehow turned his tabletop storytelling into actual stories. And then into a shocking writing career (the odds were not in his favor!). When not inventing worlds filled with magic, systems, monsters, and questionable character choices, he can be found walking in the woods with his dog, pretending it is part of the creative process.
