The PCA Dime Novels, Juvenile Series Books, and Pulps Division invites interested parties to submit papers for presentation.

All participants are requested to submit 250 word abstracts with titles. First-time participants should submit a 1-2 page proposal (please include a bibliography of proposed reference sources) along with the 250 word abstract.
