Where do you post your Broadsided? Here are a few ideas brought to you by Vectors. The Classic Office Door: Who knows what passing fellow-employee or visitor might be arrested, surprised, and delighted to find something non-corporate in the hall? Bathroom Stalls: One Vector carries a few Broadsides with her (along with tape) and puts one up each time she's in a public restroom. Why not? It beats uninspired phone numbers and insults. Bloggers: A low-tech option? Just link to us! Goodreads: Biblio-nerds that we are, we made a little profile for Broadsided on Goodreads (click to view). We've put on our bookshelves all the books by Broadsided authors and artists we could find (let us know if we missed any). We'd love to be friends with you on Goodreads. It's just one more way to spread the word about great writing, writers, and artists. Vehicular Vectors: Having trouble finding the perfect, easy spot to post your Broadside? Why not tape it to the inside window of your car? Quick. Easy. Mobile. Vectorize the interstates and byways, the parking garages and meter spots! Frame-Up: One Vector worked out a deal with a cafe owner. She created a laminated frame that hangs in the cafe, and each month, the new Broadsided goes there. Direct Marketing: An Alaskan Vector who lives in a town of 300 takes a different tack. She puts a couple of Broadsided publications in the mail each month, sending them to various folks she knows who might be glad to receive literary news. In-Flight Vectorizing: "I was in an airplane this last week and brought along a few copies of Broadsided to put into the in-flight magazine. It was simple—I just slipped them in next to the crossword puzzle or the movie options. Who knows, they might find a poetry-loving traveler or someone who, trapped on a plane for five hours, will read anything."
Libraries: "I bring them to local libraries and leave them with the free weeklies and real estate brochures in the lobby," writes a Vector in Connecticut. Party Favors: Our Vector in Berlin writes "I have a show coming up and thought about printing a stack and handing them out at the door, included in the price of admission (don't worry, not adjusting the admission price to compensate, more like a free gift for attending....is that cool with you all? On the one hand, it means increased exposure, on the other, it may go against what I think is the spirit of hanging them up in public places...please advise....)" Is that cool with us? VERY! The spirit of the project is getting words and art out into the world. We're not fixated on tape/tacks on a vertical surface. Have you got a hot Vector spot? We'd love to list it (we'd love to put up pictures even more). Write to us at broadsided(at)gmail.com. |
