[ OT ] I 'd like to help publish a collection of Redditors , in multiple genres eventually , and give the proceeds to charity .

You actually need to publish a multi-volume collection, with each volume focused on a specific genre or topic. Random stuff does n't sell well. 
 
 For example, you should have a volume of porn. And you should have a volume of social revolution fuck-the-system stuff. And you should have a volume of Outer Limits kind of sci fi. Etc. 
 
 If you organize it like this, then yeah, fuck yeah, I'd buy at least some of the volumes. Not all of them. But hell yeah, I'd buy some of the volumes. And a lot of other people would want to do likewise. 
 
 Step 1: Review the WritingPrompts threads to identify themes. 
 Step 2: Invite authors to step up the plate for themes, either to write a new piece or to authorize repub of old stuff. 
 Step 3: Have all the authors release the material to you under Creative Commons 
 Step 4: Assemble into a PDF 
 Step 5: Publish the PDF on Amazon.com for cash 
 Step 6: Some 3 months after the launch, send an Amazon gift card to thank the authors 
 Total time on your part: A few hours, max. 
 
 Ahead of time, make it clear to the authors that you do n't know how much money will roll in. So they need to license their work to you for $ 0. But also make it clear that you'll be totally transparent about how much you sell, and that you'll send them something nice if you can do so. No promises. Just mutual share-the-love. As it should be. 
 
 Peace, bro.
