I got home last evening from my 1,750-mile round trip to PulpFest 2016<\/a>. It’s a long drive, but well worth it.<\/p>\n

I apologize again for not getting a report on day 3 of the convention posted Sunday. I didn’t get up early enough, then had too much to do before hitting the road for a seven-hour drive, which was the first half of my trip home.<\/p>\n

Now that all that’s taken care of, let’s jump back to Saturday.<\/p>\n

After breakfast with fellow PulpFest committee members Mike Chomko<\/strong>, Barry Traylor<\/strong>, and Chuck Welch<\/strong>, it was on to the dealers’ room for the second full day of PulpFest.<\/p>\n

New folks continued to show up, and I ran into others that I had missed the day before.<\/p>\n

In all, it looks like this year’s convention had about the same attendance as last year. The dealers’ room had been moved from a windowless great room of the previous few years to a much more open, brighter room, thanks to a wall of windows. The renovations at the hotel and convention center continued this year, and another, larger convention group managed to get the old dealers’ room location for their event.<\/p>\n

Because of scheduling conflicts and other issues with the Columbus hotel, it’s uncertain when or where PulpFest will be held next year. Please keep an eye on the PulpFest website<\/a>, here, or Pulp Coming Attractions<\/a> for details as soon as plans are finalized.<\/p>\n
