Slogging away on Issue #2 I saw another sales notification come in from RPGNow. The first issue of The Manor has sold 80. The breakdown is 42 print and 38 PDF. I'm very glad I went for the PDF because it seems to be a popular option. I would love them to all be print because I love putting the zine together. The physical act of lining up the papers, getting the cover just so, using the long arm stapler, putting each into a envelope and putting the creepy butterfly stamp on it. The whole act is cool. Of course I've only did a few dozen.
Christian over at Loviatar just sent out his 1000th copy. WOW! Congrats Christian I would love to hit that goal.
PDF
Congratulations to the both of you!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Glad to hear it is successful.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations.
ReplyDeleteI have sometimes considered doing something like this, but usually get stopped cold by the simple realization that I'm already too busy to do everything I want... what do I put on hold?
Thanks guys.
ReplyDeleteKeith, I hear ya. I'm very busy myself, but its something I wanted to do so I made time. It took a bit longer to finish the first issue than I expected, but it was okay.
Tim: Many congratulations! One can only hope that the Manor lasts for a long time...and that they all come with a creepy moth!
ReplyDeleteWell done, sir. :)
ReplyDeleteHeh, my problem is that there are so many things that fall into that category... again, congratulations.,
ReplyDeleteCongrats! I'm still slogging through Delve! Zine #1 ;).
ReplyDeleteI was very close to following in your fine footsteps - but then I started UA-LC and figured if I didn't want the wife to throw me out, I needed to stop while I'm ahead.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Tim! As you know, I've already gotten use out of issue #1 :)
