The thing is: I’m not a very good “business person” in the usual sense. Money isn’t my measure of worth. It’s not even a […]

• The Joy of a local warhammer gaming community
  If there’s one thing I’ve learned since we started stocking Warhammer 40k at LithGeek, it’s this: minis don’t magically sell themselves just because they look awesome on a shelf. To turn our hobby corner into a proper part of the business, we knew we had to do more than “sit around and hope”. The answer […]
