Updated: Aug. 27, 2016.

Now that PulpFest 2016 is over, it’s time for my annual listing of convention reports.

I will be updating this post over the next few weeks as new reports are posted online. I will add a line at the top of the post to indicate when it has been updated.

I recorded over seven-and-a-half hours of PulpFest 2016 programming, and those recordings are now available for listening. If you subscribe to the Pulp Event Podcast through iTunes, podcasts for all nine events have been uploaded. If you’re prefer to listen to them from the website, head over to ThePulp.Net’s PulpFest 2016 coverage page. There you will find links to pages with photos and embedded audio for each of the events that I recorded.

Of course, if you have posted a PulpFest report online, or come across one that’s not listed below, please let me know in the comments or using the contact form.

Now on to the reports (listed alphabetically)…
