Good overall marketing effort to print and electronic media.
Rusnak Jeff - Score: 88.000
The application was heavy on tourism and light on how Florida writers are selected and how they're impacted. Would have liked to know more about the visitor experience in terms of the presentation of readings, Q&A sessions with authors and the like. More culture, less tourism. No attachments or support materials, which would have been highly instructive in getting a picture of the event and how it is promoted.

The ComicCon-style event intrigues me.
