Ahhhh this. I shouldn't have to market my own book. You're supposed to be able to just produce the damn book scream not do social media and be s public figure. America is messed up

it's so fuckin weird how they're obsessed with the demographics of an industry and not, like, say, the whole "business model that demands new writers somehow already have a social media following before you can even get paid attention to" problem, which, to me, seems like a bigger issue

I just finished reading Bennett Cerf's biography and it was ABSOLUTELY WILD the stuff publisher paid for back in the day JUST BANANAPANTS

I told my editor that I had to go to South America to find treasure and rescue my kidnapped sister, and they were just like "how will this affect the delivery date", it's like none of the old publishing traditions are valued any more.

nevermind my main chars, i wanna talk about how the elves in the story form "families" tho it will never appear explcitly in the story. #lithodgepodge They don't have children. toddler elves appear from the dirt. they are raised in a nursery. companies adopt the older kids to become new workers.

I am simmering the idea of translating this entire comic into Japanese and hitting up some Japanese publishers. Finally put my JLPT1 to use or something. マジでやりたいなら出来ないこうもない

ofc in reality, foster systems are infamous with stories of neglect and abuse but these are magical perfect ass elves that figured it out and provide for their communal children with enthusiasm.

i also dislike the notion that blood relations are important so these elves can -- since they don't have parents -- choose who they want to value and who they want to see less.

i had this idea for the elves because I wanted the elves to have formed a utopia where child abuse doesn't exist and all the elves are free to do whatever they feel destined to do.

most of the companies are run by like 10 or less people, so the company is sort of their family. the land they live on is the "biological mom" of all of the elves on the land and above it.

same reason why I don't care about korean publishers neither. llol this shit will sounds so damn corny in Korean, I cannot let the reader know I thumbed it in the cheesiest korean they ever laid their eyes on

but since all the nuance I put in for ((east) asian) american readers would be lost, it's a difficult decision to make. But also the story gets its point across just fine idk.

idk I don't think anybody should write anything published until they understand how marginalization works because that shatters that nonsense disney shit about good guys VS bad guys fastquick. the world is very gray. bad guys are sometimes good guys protecting other weaker good guys from bad guys.
