Sumuru?
For all my grumbling and groaning, I do find it very liberating to be writing as I publish, with everything controlled by me. The agent thing, though I appreciated the editing sessions and fine-toothed approach to submission to editors, was kind of a ball-and-chain. I remember telling my agent about ideas for new novels that were far outside the Hayao & Kaori detective scope and she basically said in a genre-driven way, "if it is not a sequel, the editors will not be interested." In other words, if I got a deal, my future would be sealed as a literary genre writer (sequels being a dependable source of income and all that).
When (and if) I choose to monetize my writing, there are many options available, as long as I have built up a regular readership through a faithfully updated (and completely unexpurgated) blog. And the money can go to things that interest me, like launching Fabric.
Thank you readers––I am thinking to publish Arisugawa Park in the next few months. Meanwhile, keep your eyes pried wide open for a new installment of Cowachunga, in a day or two. Kyle and Dylan come face to face with... this is where things get really interesting. One word: Sumuru.
