< b > 19 artists< / b > contributed < b > 13 physical< / b > and

< p > This year, our payouts vary slightly according to two factors:< / p >
< ul >
< li > whether the artist contributed physical zines< / li >
< li > whether the artist received physical zines< / li >
< / ul >
< p >
This was to help offset cost of printing. Final payouts will be
calculated on June 6 (deadline 4), but at current, artists will
receive anywhere from < b > USD95 to USD135< / b > (if this math sounds
wrong: there are artists who opted out of being paid).

< ul >
< li >
< b > Using Airtable.< / b > Make sure all coordinators are using the
same information platform. In 2025, I allowed coordinators to opt
out of learning a new platform. Next year, I'll put extra effort
into making the platform accessible.
< / li >
< li >
< b > Shared email.< / b > A shared email account for coordinators would
make responding to artist questions easier and more seamless for
artists.
< / li >
< li >
< b > Fedi handles.< / b > This year, I aimed to get artist's websites
for general publicity, rather than fedi handles. Collect both -
fedi handles are useful for publicity as well as communication.
< / li >
< li >
< b > Digital cleanliness.< / b > It would be nice to have uploaded
digital zines follow a clear format like Author_Title or similar.
< / li >
< li >
< b > Deadlines.< / b > The 4 week delays between some of the later
steps? Those have already been necessary. One set of zines didn't
arrive until 21 May despite being posted on time.
