He was on the [[committee]] for [[Loncon I]] and the [[Eastercons]], [[Festivention]] and [[Galactic Fair]]. In 1972 he was made the first (honorary) president of the [[British Fantasy Society]].
 
 
 
His [[fanzines]] included ''[[Steam]]'', ''[[Star Parade]]'', ''[[Fantasy Post]]'' (with [[Arthur Williams]]), ''[[Nirvana]]'', ''[[Wappoted]]'' (with [[Walt Willis]]), and ''[[Ziz]]'' (for [[OMPA]] with [[Pamela Bulmer]]).
 
 
 
As a prodigiously prolific author, Bulmer used numerous [[pseudonyms]] over the course of his career, including '''Alan Burt Akers''' and '''Manning Norvil'''. His 53 book long [[Dray Prescott]] series was originally published as by Akers and later under the protagonist's name. In addition to [[science fiction]], Bulmer also wrote westerns and historical adventures.
 
 
 
[[BECCON '83]] produced a 52 page booklet about him.
