Rolling With It: Con Updates, Dorkness Rising, and Players Are Stupid

In this episode of The Indie Author Showcase, we kick things off with updates to our convention schedule—where we’ll be, what’s new, and what indie goodies we’re bringing with us.

Then we dive into one of my all-time favorite indie films about tabletop misadventure: The Gamers: Dorkness Rising. We talk about why this cult classic captures the chaotic energy of D&D better than just about anything else and why it still holds up for gamers and storytellers alike.

Why? Because our book showcase is all about playing D&D! We spotlight Players Are Stupid by Aukey Wikoff, a sharp, hilarious, and painfully relatable look at gaming culture from someone who’s clearly been in the dungeon trenches.

Whether you’re a writer, a gamer, or both, this episode is all about creativity, community, and the joy of rolling the dice.
