Me-Zines

[out_there]

I’m thinking of printing up Not Homophobic and Like Sailing and Home Runs as little booklets (think of them as mini-zines for me). I was going to put them into one booklet, but then that booklet would be about 140 pages long (60 for LSHR and 80 for NH), which might be a bit long for a basic A4-bound document.

I was going to do it for me as a bit of a pride thing, as a physical example of what I can accomplish, but it occurred to me that if I’m going to the hassle of printing out pages and binding and photocopying, I might as well check if anyone else wants a copy.

It feels really, *really* self-promoting to be asking, but does anyone else want a copy? I would expect repayment of costs (no, I currently have no idea how much photocopying/binding will cost, but even if I can cover that, I certainly can’t afford to pay for international postage) but I wouldn’t be making a profit.

Basically, this is a post to see if anyone else would be interested. (If not, I’ll just go ahead and make mine.) Leave me a comment saying which story you’d want and the region I’d have to post it to. Then I can figure out costs, let you know, and you can decide if you definitely want it and the best way to repay me.

ETA: And in case you are curious, I'm planning on the most-basic-of-the-basic production values: Times New Roman, black and white, no images.

$15-18? Then I'm doing well at $23 for two booklets (one of 85 pages double sided and one of 65 pages double sided). Since it'd be over two thousand pages, I'd be at their 6c a page cost.

Oh, you mean you're splitting it into 2 books and a total of 23 for the two and not put the 2 into one and $23 for that? Then that's cool. :D

Putting the two books into one would be 150 double sided pages, and would be about 3cm thick (on A4 paper). That's a bit too daunting for me to read easily.
