Two years' worth of inventory, gone in six months. A sixty-thousand-dollar zine that will never happen again. A hundred bucks of black-and-white flyers, hand-folded on a kitchen table, that might be the best business card in the hall.Zac Goins joins me to argue about scale. He's running a big Limithron Kickstarter and shepherding SideQuest — a pile of tiny projects from a dozen creators — at the same time, and the whiplash gave him something to say. We get into where the real margins live, why complexity is the tax you pay for going big, and what my years at Caterpillar taught me about print runs: you are going to be wrong, and the only question is which direction.We also talk about the ticking clock that starts the moment your Kickstarter funds, why a group of writers demands you know your page count before you know your words, and the two SideQuest projects Zac thinks deserve your attention.If you've ever wondered whether your next project should be a zine or a doorstop, this is the conversation that answers it honestly.https://updates.kickstarter.com/meet-sidequest-a-community-effort-to-bring-tabletop-crowdfunding-back-to-basics/
