Use this form to submit press releases for anime conventions.

Please do not submit your personal convention reports here! Use our convention report form to submit links to con reports.

If you would like to add AnimeCons.com to a press mailing list rather than using this form each time, please contact us and request our e-mail address for press releases.

WARNING: LARGE BACKLOG! AnimeCons.com staff was out of the office this past weekend. While we were out, we received a large number of submissions that we're still sorting through. You may still submit updates, but it will take longer than usual before we get to them. Duplicate submissions do not get your updates done any faster...and will likely just get you moved to the bottom of the pile.

	AnimeCons.com Press Release Submission Policy AnimeCons.com will only post press releases that its staff members feel qualify as "news" related to an anime convention or event. Press releases that do not contain any actual news or announcements related to anime and/or related to the convention will not be posted. For example, this site will not post a press release about comic book artists attending a comic show or science fiction actors attending a sci-fi con. AnimeCons.com will not post press releases "announcing" guests who have been previously announced or have been listed on the convention's web site for more than one week. AnimeCons.com may choose to not post some press releases for a convention if they begin to be received every day or two. This will be considered spamming. All press releases submitted with this form will be posted as-is, including all spelling and grammatical errors. You are responsible for your own proofreading. AnimeCons.com reserves the right to create its own headlines and article summaries for use on its web site and RSS feed. All news posted on AnimeCons.com, including press releases, may be cross-posted to other locations through the use of syndication technology such as RSS feeds and/or Twitter. By using this form, you must be an authorized representative of the organization represented in the submitted press release. AnimeCons.com does its best to verify information, but cannot be held responsible for errors in submitted materials. AnimeCons.com reserves the right not to post any press release for any reason.
* Agree?	I have read and agree to the above AnimeCons.com submission policy.

Before submitting a press release, please consider these helpful tips:

• PRWeb has many helpful tips on properly writing and formatting press releases.
• Opening pre-registration for your event is not news. Cutting it off because it's full is. (Refer to man bites dog.)
• Sending us rules for a contest is not a press release. Please don't assume that putting a paragraph before and after a list of rules makes it okay.
• If you are sending us a new press release almost every day, you are sending us too many. Don't be surprised if we stop posting most of them. Also, you may discover that when you send out releases too frequently, people start to ignore you...as if you're always over their shoulder shouting, "Hey listen!"
• Remember, using ® or ™ once (on the first occurrence of the word or phrase) is plenty. Putting it on every occurrence is excessive. [more info]
• Spell check and grammar check! Have several other people proofread your press release. Save yourself some embarrassment later by getting it right now.
• Be absolutely certain you want the press release out there before you submit it. Once it goes out to other sites via RSS and gets posted to Twitter, it is impossible for us to remove the posting from those third-party sites.
• AnimeCons.com staff members have lives too. We may not always be able to post press releases immediately.
