I think it sounds cool and fun but charging X amount so that work doesn't seem "cheapened" at a fucking zine fair is kinda stupid.

Well, maybe I'm thinking about it wrong, I've never been to one, but basic economics is that if a product is undervalued, nobody will buy it

There's a story about how a business owner left instructions for her employee to heavily discount some artworks that hadn't sold in a long time, but her employee accidentally increased the price by 10, and over the weekend they all sold.

Why do you feel you can charge if essentially youre a nobody and want to get your name out?

>>7430625
One reason is that if you give things to strangers for free, people are automatically suspicious of your intentions

I could possibly charge a nominal fee instead like 50 cents

What about if its online and free? I wanted to release a collection of flash fiction soon but i wouldn't feel right charging

Charge the full 3 dolla. People will be intrigued. I approve.

Well, my reservation's been approved so I guess I gotta get to work finishing the damn thing

Yes do it. Zines are huge again in the underground. People will def check you out. There is so much material out there and everyone is buying. It is kind of ridiculous but opportunistic. Probably a great place to start if youre looking to get published. Network with folks and see what they can offer.

Thanks so much for your reply. Only 2 months now to get my act together but I am determined.

It's still their choice to buy it
