One thing I've noticed is that most RW media outlets don't actually care about RW media that they themselves are not directly connected with or producing. There's little to no coverage, journalistic or otherwise, of the broader field.
Our local rag covered our reprinting of the Cosmic Courtship and the other works of Julian Hawthorne, but I don't think any other major outlet reached out or responded to our solicits.

We made news when we found and republished a previously believed lost Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzan fragment, completed by one of our regular contributors.
We're at a point where RW culture media outlets should be keeping tabs on what we're up to, even just an eye, but they don't.
In the first few years, yeah, as an unknown and unproven entity, begging hat-in-hand for any sort of coverage makes sense, but after a decade and a proven track record, it's more that RW culture/media journalists are incurious and prefer outrage bait anyway.
I know it comes across as being bitter, but it's more that I'm flabbergasted that RW c/m journos don't care/are unaware of a publisher who:
>was a Hugo Finalist
>published a lost Tarzan story
>published near-lost works of Julian Hawthorne
>has stayed in business for 10+ years
Anyway, our 31st Successful Kickstarter is ending in about 30 minutes.
