A dork with a dream :) I'm a quirky, ambidextrously-brained, creative Geek Girl who happens to be a single mom to two geekling girls. I believe in community, the importance of play and that one person (even a dork) can make a difference. You may also know me as UberDorkGirlie :)
Has there been any progress on this project?
Natali, we spoke at Gen Con, and I'd like to get you on the Gamer's Haven Podcast and chat a bit about this. Shoot me an e-mail, DM me on twitter, whatever. I got your business card, but no e-mail address, sadly ... ethan at gamershavenpodcast dot com.

I'm so happy for you I am crying! Happiness all around. Congratulations, Natali, and may all your dreams come true, and you are showing that anything is possible. Your enthusiasm is so pure and contagious! You give me hope as well.

Thanks to the Brew City Gamers for not only pimpin' the site in their podcast, but also for their financial support. Listen to one fo the best gamer-centric podcasts out there. http://brewcitygamers.com
Thank you all sooooooooooo much!! I just wanna hug ya. You all know me so you know when I say that your support means oooodles to me, I really mean it. I have been kicking around the idea of seeing if any of the news outlets would be interested. One of the stations is following the cafe on twitter and I have a few anchors following my account personally. Guess I'm kinda hoping they see it and say "hey! this would make a great story!" :) If not, maybe I will give them a lil poke. :)
Totally backing this and you have the full support of @ThePowerGeeks.
Oh, contacting the news sounds like a good idea. I'm gonna hit all the folks I know and see if we can knock this baby outta the park.
This is SO exciting, Natali! I believe in you, girl - YOU CAN DO THIS! UDC is going to be rad <3
And I agree with Xander about trying to contact your local news! Great idea :)
You've got a great start. Have you contacted your local news? This would be a fun human interest piece, that would give you more local exposure, and possibly gauge the local reaction to the idea.
You're going to do great things.
