Is there room for more N. American publishers to put out uncensored/less censored versions of the BL stories featured on Manta & other webtoon platforms? Absolutely. Supporting what's out there fr. , , matters.

Figuring out what to do is hard.

When I don't know what to do, I like to focus on understanding the problem.

When you understand the problem inside and out, a solution emerges.

That's my theory, and it's why I'm working on this book for self-publishers.

It’s interesting in my local bookstore (Indigo) Solo Levelling is in the manga section despite /technically/ being a manhwa. Whereas True Beauty (also a manhwa) is in the graphic novels. I guess there is no consistency between publishers (Yen Press / Webtoon) where they belong.

Shit, even manga publishers are entering the fray and publishing English YA graphic novels. Like Seven Seas collaborating with Hiveworks. There is an ever-expanding market of indie webcomics being picked up and published, including webtoons and tapas originals.

"GAME, (date)" eg Tomb Raider 2013

"The new GAME" eg The New Doom

"The GAME reboot" eg Saints Row Reboot

“We just can’t market or sell kids’ book…”
I heard this for 8 years.
But I’m stubborn and never listen.
Thank you to the trailblazing publishers who took a chance on me. To all the booksellers and teachers who supported me, and to my amazing agent who believes in me.
