Look up your local newspaper(s) and email the games editor. I did, when The Witch's Yarn was first picked as an IGF finalist. Today this happens:

Marketing dollars spent: zilch.

Luck of the Irish, NOT! Make it happen.

Tried to check your site, I get an empty page... too many visitors? :)

Oh how I wish my local newspaper wasn't run by some tech-less cave men.

Hey, wait a minute! I could propose the idea of a games columnist. And that columnist could be me!

I could have a real job!

Joking aside, congratulations on your pennyless advertising campaign.

And you could pimp your games like crazy;)

Go ahead and propose it! Freelance writing isn't a real job either. :-)

Yep, a buddy of mine did this in his hometown of Wisconsin of all places, and had a nice little article with pics. Was pretty cool.
