I totally understand what you mean! That's definitely the goal of this whole thing, but I think towards the end I wanna make a small book about 'Organizing Around Creative Work' and how I plan and structure stuff like this, and options for physical and digital distribution of information and encouragement. While printing books can be a bit expensive, a good way to do it is to either a) use free school printers if possible and b) use preorders to secure batch orders of physical copes via a third party printing company. If you have the preorder at 10, 7, or 5 dollars for something that only costs 3 dollars to make, you can put the extra money towards shipping and have free copies for distribution and for those who cannot afford to buy a copy. Another great way to ensure distribution is to have a digital .pdf available for free with the encouragement towards people to print out the document themself wherever they are on plain paper and distribute plain/cheaper versions that way. Other good ideas are making larger poster size poems atop an illustration and wheat pasting them across a city or a campus. Basically there are a lot of small options like that that can be viable if you find a way to get some small amount of funding or a way to lowkey 'steal' other peoples ink and paper! If you're interested in working together on something like this we should exchange contact info or messaging apps! My email is vincenthemself@gmail.com. We can go from there! [My note about translations being the future is that I think English supremacy in poetry success and language is a problem, and that translations are a great first step to start challenging that]
