This board needs a new organization that will help anons to publish their writing. &amp is dead and Unreal is a lost cause, they’ve now started an entire general thread just to doxx people and talk about their discord drama. How long can this be allowed to continue? Fuck the jannies for putting up with it.

Who’s with me on starting a new /lit/ press? It’ll be 100% based with a zero tolerance policy for gay ops.

One of the things that I really think hurt both &amp and Unreal was the rampant namefagging. The obvious solution to that is keep everyone anonymous but would anyone even contribute to a mag like this if their name wasn't attached to their work? Feels almost like a necessary evil.

>would anyone even contribute to a mag like this if their name wasn't attached to their work? Feels almost like a necessary evil.
poetry threads are evidentiary that they would, but perhaps we wouldnt get very good stuff. perhaps a requirement that the same namefag cannot be published more than once (that is, they have to come up with a new pseudonym each time, thus their style would be the only telling factor) would work...

>> No.21992522

>>21992492
it’s not the names that are a problem, it’s the development of personalities around the names. people want credit for their work and it’s interesting to see writers’ progression through different issues of a zine so I don’t think forcing all submitters to be anonymous would work well. better to just strictly ban submitters from namefagging in order to attention whore and shill their own work in threads about the project. they can mention what works they wrote once if asking for feedback, or if sharing contact info for zine related collabs, but if they start acting gay and trying to develop a persona then they’re barred from submitting to future issues

>> No.21992549

>>21992522
While I do agree that the names themselves aren't the problem, it seem like there's no way for anyone involved in the mag to police someone who crosses that line. Disavowing and disbarring would only lead to these people developing chips on their shoulders. Of course, this is all assuming that the mag is even big enough to have this disqualification not be laughed off.

I have now a few years experience attempting to balance the actual quality of literary output in the context of policing contributors pennames. If you want quality work strictly under the banner of Anonymous, it will require more luck than I often had with &amp.

There is controlling the narrative to the unfolding of this story. These projects take on a life of their own. You want a stylish and substantial literary publication made by strangers over the internet? Trust me, you wouldn’t know where the fuck to even start. Best of luck though, no cap.

Nice gaslight but if you were in any &amp thread last year you'd know the best of was a separate project that editor merely blessed because the organizer had contributed writing before. It was also the second down time for the magazine as people began to review things via googledocs and discuss pictures. No one had any idea this would happen, and just like editor I think a lot of contributors don't even care. I'm still submitting to &amp and if there's any podcast I'll be glad to show up to talk about my writing. What's really bad is that none of this compares to the drama authors get with public scrutiny. Some authors like Ellis endured threats for years and kept writing. Not necessarily to you anon, but any writer here that wants to make it needs to care about writing more than anything because without that conviction you will give up.

Why does Unreal attract the most fucked up, antisocial dregs of this board? Obviously it’s important to be cautious with your private details online, but if people are naïve enough to reveal their personal information in your server that doesn’t give you carte blanche to post their faces and names all over 4chan with impunity. You’re still completely in the wrong for doing so,and it makes your organization look immature and untrustworthy. If someone doesn’t lock their door and you walk into their house and steal something, you’ve commited a crime, and claiming that they asked for it by leaving the house unlocked won’t prevent you from being tried and convicted by a jury of your peers. The same principal applies here.

As somebody who has witnessed his fair share of 4chan related e-drama, starting out with Skype groups and later over discord, I have a few pointers I want to give to any anon aspiring to create his or her own /lit/ project.

Keep things strictly business. This is the most important piece of advice I can give you. All other advice plays a subordinate role to this vital dogma.
Categorically refuse to start or engage in any social activities with anybody contributing to the project. Work together with them, but treat it like you would any 9 to 5: the company is not your family. You do your work, you might banter a bit, but don't let it seep into your private life and most importantly, don't let your private life seep into the project. Keep it strictly business.
Avoid discord like the plague. I get that it is tempting for ease of communication and archival reasons. You can use it if you keep things strictly business. Only you and the people helping with the project. No off-topic talk. You're here to get things done, not to be social. If you aren't sure that every single contributor to the project can adhere to these rules, do not use discord.
E-Mail communication is less efficient, but it gets the job done. Don't be an idiot and use your private email. Make a separate account just for your project. Treat it like you would a business email account: engage with it when you're working, forget it exists when you're not. Keep communication strictly business.
Lastly, don't namefag on 4chan. The exception is promoting a project and releasing it, maybe a Q&A or something. The point being: if you are namefagging, you are representing your project. Don't engage in e-drama or off-topic discussion. Keep it strictly business.
To summarize: keep it strictly business.

That's why you keep it to a handful of people and categorically refuse to engage in an social shit whatsoever. Make a plan, work towards realising it, keep things going, and otherwise forget this exists. Basically, treat like a job. I see the biggest issue in the temptation of wanting to bathe in the recognition from getting this kind of project done and being even mildly successful with it. That brings with it all sorts of drama. Even if the person the drama is about doesn't give a fuck (and I'm sure many anons have that kind of character) it could still hurt the project. Hence it is imperative to keep things strictly business and professional.
Be that all as it may, I've shouted my wisdom gained from experience into the void. Maybe it'll do some good.

Hey man, good luck with your magazine, genuinely, I always support /lit/ projects.
But you're gonna need luck. And you're gonna need to care. Every single project from this board has been one of these things

Headed by someone with a lot of money and know how who poured literal thousands into the production (Quarterly)
Headed by someone with little money but a few skilled friends and the ability to stick with a largely fruitless project for literal years (Unreal, &amp, Minimag, /ffa/(which died immediately after that original anon left)
2-3 Anons caught in a menage a trois manic episode that they roped 10-15 other anons in over the course of 4-5 general threads. There is no follow up (Moby Dick, Burgerpunk, Those collab novels like Coronameron, Tundra, etc)

None of these were some petty reaction by an anon attempting to dance in the shadow of a minor entity whose entire base almost is made up of other anons with a vested interest in its success. So, good luck. I'm sure you'll catch on.
Small heads up, if you yourself arent the bad faith samefag continuously bumping this thread, know that just about everyone who signed up for your project is this one individual. And he won't help you with anything. He only cares about us.

About seven anons on design using mostly GIMP and Canva that receive subs from one or two editors who then after receiving designs use Adobe InDesign to finalize typesetting, then kerning anon puts all of the typefonts through the digitizer for the PDF, then the colorist makes sure all images conform to CKMY, then it’s back into InDesign for final rendering. Then the design anons and the editors work together to submit all three PDFs (spine is separate) to Blurb for approval. It’s actually very easy and I used to do it all myself but it takes about 2 weeks full time work to do a single issue and that doesn’t include reading submissions.

Actually Blurb uses Brother UV Thermal, some commercial loader with flat delivery. Pretty sure it’s Lulu that uses Canon. Either way, whenever I use RGB for glossy print on anything over 250 DPI, I get chroma scatter and blending fade. Which of course affects the trim margin.
Also autokerning is a meme, &amp requires that we adjust typeset manually because our text is slightly larger than normal magazine and it looks gay using text_grep or kern_value or any other Juniper extension for Adobe. Plus Junipers python doesn’t always jive with my own custom codebase. Fitting is based tho, I’ll give you that.
Can you link me to a text_grep that doesn’t suck? Doesn’t have to be Juniper.

Yes it needs to be chroma-keyed for whatever printer you are using. They say it doesn’t, but it does. Also typesetting is so important otherwise you get fucked up kerning and sometimes substitute wingdings on typefonts like light or extra light because Adobe thinks that it’s a whitespace character. Also dont render PDFs directly from Canva or GIMP unless you want it to look like shit. Also don’t listen to >>21996747, custom Adobe extensions make life a lot easier if you know your typeface specs (if you’re using A4, I can send you the extension I wrote myself (it’s better than Juniper’s and it’s free)).
