Me-Zines
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.

I gave up zines when the net happened. And yet, and yet, it'd be nice to have hard copies to read in bed. (I have hard printout of all my own stuff. And I reread it quite often. I am so conceited, I shall surely die and go to hell, but fuckit.)
Figure out what the postage would be to the UK ... if it's do-able, I'd be interested.

I'm the same. It'd be nice to read it in actual printed form, where I could be cosy and stretched out. I think... I think I'll need to print up a trial version to figure out the weight, and then figure out the postage from there.

but if the weight turns out okay, you're looking at about 6 pounds, plus photocopying/binding costs. (I'm working on those right now.)
