ALL PULP: Pulp Ark 2012 -- Off To A Roaring Start!


Pulp Ark 2012 doesn't officially kick off until later today but organizer Tommy Hancock is reporting that the convention is off to a great start! In just the first few hours, more fans have come through the doors today than attended the entire weekend last year! In related news, sales are strong for those vendors who have already set up their tables and with more authors, vendors and participants arriving over the next 24 hours, it's safe to say that Pulp Ark 2012 is going to be a pulp con for the ages!
