What, precisely, do you mean by a 'virtual outlet'?
Do you mean Amazon? ¹
Or is this something more abstract … like a real reading in a virtual space (hence the utterly ludicrous idea of using something so unsecure as Zoom ² )
Not into eBooks … I’d prefer a paperback myself.
Signed by the author ³.
With an accompanying autographed photo ⁴.

¹ Check out this guy — he ‘published’ his story (about The No-armed Man) one Amazon product review at a time, for free.
² Would you like my PIN and security details as well as my bank card number?
³ Which might, or might not, be you — if we’re getting all virtual here, maybe it should be signed by the virtual author.
⁴ Which probably shouldn’t depict you (and/or the author) topless … greased/oiled up … striking a sexy pose … smouldering at the camera … but, on the other hand, if you (or the author) ever become(s) famous, it could be worth money ⁵, so maybe you should send one of those too (just in case).
⁵ I bet both of you would be only too willing to part with a not inconsiderable amount for its return at that stage.
