Publishing on the Super Cheap
Hello,
I'm thinking of publishing an off the wall gaming book for sale at GenCon. Here are my printing goals:
Small print run (200 tops; I don't want to wreck my back lugging the damn thing around.)
I'm looking at very no-frills printing here, something that's little more than printer paper stapled together, but I would like it to have a cover printed on different color paper and stapled binding.
Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing?
I also need someone to do layout, I need art, and I need a logo. If you work cheap, send me an email at:
mearls@alum.dartmouth.org
Thanks!

(Edit: Made my needs clearer.)

Need some layout and a logo? Sign me up. Check out my Dust Devil pdf for an example of some rpg designs I've done. Also, you can check out www.chimera.info for more design samples.
It's the least I can do to help you out -- maybe we can make this an even better GenCon this year, especially if Wick doesn't spill his drink all over yer lap!
Drop me a line anytime -- best email to use directly is judge_gideon@hotmail.com

If you want to PM me your budget, I think I can help you out.
Depending on page-count, I can definitely do quite a few for you (and colored paper is no problem). Your cost would be for paper and .03 cents (so $.0003 would be a better way to put it) per staple or so.
Again page count is the big measure, but I see little trouble in at least doing some, if not all, of them for you. I got the hook-ups.
