Over the last several months, the PulpFest organizing committee has been busy promoting the convention through a wide variety of media providers, including Internet news groups such as Pulpmags, TheREHcomicsgroup, and WesternPulps, the popular social networking site, Facebook, and through events calendars such as UpcomingCons.com and experienceColumbus.com. 

However, our efforts to promote PulpFest have not been limited to cyberspace. We have also been reaching out to print and broadcasting media as well, targeting the Columbus area in the interest of securing regional publicity and, through it, attracting more walk-ins. Thanks to these efforts, PulpFest landed an article in the June 23, 2010 issue of ThisWeek, a community newspaper serving central Ohio. Additionally, PulpFest committee members Jack Cullers and Ed Hulse, as well as Ohio State professor Eric Johnson were interviewed for a three-page article entitled "Amazing Tales in Columbus" that ran in the July 2010 issue of Ohio Magazine, a glossy periodical devoted to promoting travel opportunities in the state of Ohio.

By our reaching out to a wide variety of media providers, the use of Internet news groups, our print advertising, and outreach efforts via other conventions and book and paper shows, PulpFest 2010 hopes to draw a record crowd to Columbus at the end of this week. Rest assured, your PulpFest committee will continue to work to assure that PulpFest 2010 will be a resounding success.
