I guess I should have been writing down my new finds so I would remember to actually go back and buy them.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, well, maybe next time for those.<\/p>\n<p>But as I&#8217;ve written about pulp shows, it&#8217;s really all about fellow pulp fans.<\/p>\n<p>On just Saturday, I had time to talk to a number of fans, including <strong>Brian Earl Brown<\/strong>, <strong>John De Walt<\/strong>, <strong>Ed Hulse<\/strong>, <strong>Sai Shankar<\/strong>, <strong>Michelle Nolan<\/strong>, <strong>Duane Spurlock<\/strong>, and others; have lunch with <strong>Lohr McKinstry<\/strong>; have dinner with <strong>Chris<\/strong> and <strong>David Kalb<\/strong>, <strong>Scott<\/strong> and <strong>Patrick Cranford<\/strong>, <strong>Bill Mann<\/strong>, and <strong>Bill Thinnes<\/strong>; then end the evening in Bill Mann&#8217;s con room with Duane, Chris, David, both Bills, Scott, Patrick, <strong>Tom Krabacher<\/strong>, <strong>David Saunders<\/strong>, <strong>Walker Martin<\/strong>, <strong>Chuck Welch<\/strong>, <strong>Chet Williamson<\/strong>, <strong>Morgan Holmes<\/strong>, <strong>Don Herron<\/strong>, and <strong>Nick Certo<\/strong>. And that&#8217;s not mentioning the short conversations that occurred around the con (both Saturday and the other days).<\/p>\n<p>After dinner, the evening&#8217;s activities kicked off with the annual <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pulpfest.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">PulpFest<\/a> meeting, where the committee &mdash; <strong>Jack<\/strong> and <strong>Sally Cullers<\/strong>, <strong>Barry Traylor<\/strong>, <strong>Mike Chomko<\/strong>, and Chuck Welch &mdash; review this year&#8217;s con, talk about plans for next year, and elicit comments and complaints about this year&#8217;s event. Immediately following that was the announcement of the 2015 winner of the Munsey Award: <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pulpfest.com\/2015\/08\/and-the-winner-of-the-2015-munsey-award-is\/\" target=\"_blank\">Stephen T. Miller<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The commemorative PulpFest cakes were served, then the topic turned to editing of <em>Weird Tales<\/em> featuring a panel including <strong>Garyn Roberts<\/strong>, Morgan Holmes, Don Herron, <strong>Will Murray<\/strong>, and Tom Krabacher. After that, David Saunders profiled pulp artist <strong>Rudolph Belarski<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Rounding out the evening&#8217;s official events was the auction.<\/p>\n<p>As this entry is being posted, the doors to the PulpFest dealers&#8217; room will be opening for the last time this year. And I will be already on the road home.<\/p>\n<p>I hope everyone had as much fun as I did. And if you weren&#8217;t able to attend PulpFest 2015, then I hope you&#8217;ll be able to come next year (or at least get to one of the other pulp gatherings).<\/p>\n<p>Once I get home and get the recordings edited, I will post audio from the evening panels. I will also put together a roundup of PulpFest reports. So please keep an eye out for those.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any comments about PulpFest, please add them in the comments below.
