I'll show off some more later! To save money, since this was a small prototype printrun, I used public domain images for over half the cards, editing them to be greyscale and distinct at card size. With ParaLens' archeology theme, it made too much sense. Here are some of the ones I used!

It def can work but I suspect it is difficult to scale. AIUI one of Unbound’s problems was covering reprinting costs, after the initial printrun was crowdfunded. They found the margin on sale of the first run was insufficient to cover overheads, royalties, and reprinting – 1 of the 3 had to go…

If you save $100 per week for your novel - you will save $2,600 in 6 months.

If you need $6,400 likely up front and marketing costs, this means 1 year and 3 months @$100 per week.

If you need $3,400 for a 5,000 copy print run it is roughly 9 months.

Thinking about doing another printrun of my first-ever book, WE ARE GOING TO EAT YOU! CANNIBAL MOVIES. Chas Balun brilliantly edited the ms. down to bite-size and ran his edit (with my blessing) in THE DEEP RED HORROR HANDBOOK (1989); getting interest anew from folks. Maybe it's time...

@patrickleder.bsky.social kündigt den 16. Printrun von #Root an und beantwortet innerhalb des Threads die Frage nach der allgemeinen Auflage:
Über 1 Million Exemplare in allen möglichen Sprachen, sind dann inzwischen von Root gedruckt worden. Was für ein Erfolg eines meiner liebsten #Brettspiele.😍

Mein Mausritter Popup-Dungeon Stinkstadt ist Teil des Mausritter-Month auf Backerkit. Bei dem CF im November wird es hauptsächlich um den Printrun für die englische Version geben.

Vielleicht wird es auch etwas Neues auf Deutsch geben, kann ich momentan noch nicht versprechen

Und nochmal den Dungeon neu gebastelt für die #Nordcon. Allerdings ist das Papier vom Copyshop zu glatt und klebt schlecht. Das sollte beim Printrun dann besser werden.

My man, I just honestly don't give a shit about Secret Lairs. But I agree 100% that the new limited printrun system sucks shit.

1 day, and already 150 downloads. Back in the day 150 copies would be classified as very fine total printrun for an academic book. #OpenAccess changes everything!!

"printrun" is the name of the thing I couldn't remember.
To y'know run prints.
Confusing name for me.

Ja, chatgpt hat mit für nen 7oo Printrun beim Drucken gesagt, dass das wohl pro Buch preiswerter als PoD wäre. Aber ich hoffe für Suhrkamp, dass die sich da Gutes ausgehandelt haben…

Well, no. Tim Viereck paid $200 for a 200-printrun, circa 1976. Johnson Press was a printing press, they simply did the printing; we were self-publishing.

I got curious if @printrunpodcast.bsky.social had merch... and now someone needs to convince me that I don't need another tote bag in my collection

95% of my customer base were from the US. Just a few weeks ago I invested 5-digits into Herd printrun + ordered an Abdec reprint so I could do bundles. Let’s see how I’ll climb out of this, but in any case, I wish all the strength to my fellow gamedevs

we get asked all the time by querying writers: "when is the right time to nudge an agent, and how should I do it?" This sort of correspondence really vexes people. We get it. But fear no more because today Print Run presents:

Sixth micro-printrun of Newt Knight is in. Now I just need to make some new material so I can apply to more shows.

Just looked. We are at 199 paid patrons right now. If we get to that nice even 200 by Thursday morning when we record, we'll record some bonus Patreon content that morning as well. Tell your friends?

I did a small printrun of Vibes, a game about helping art students find a group they vibe with, and I'm looking to see who I ought to send review copies too. I've never sought out reviewers before and I don't want to go on Facebook which is where everyone tells me to go.
