PulpFest 2011 reports

Updated: Monday, Aug. 8, 2011.

Reports from PulpFest 2011 are starting to show up online.

A few folks — Mark Halegua, Michael Neno, Stephen Haffner — have started posting comments and photos over at the PulpMags group at Yahoo Groups. I’m sure more will be posting there once PulpFest is over.

Below are other sites where you can check out reports and photos from this year’s PulpFest. I’ll be adding to this list as more shows up online. Please feel free to add links in comments at the bottom, too.
