About
Zenko has been publishing indie manga since 2017. As a self-taught artist and long-term painter, struggled with gallery work until being introduced to comics and ink in 2015; taking to it happily.

Very certainly a nsfw bot.
The hard work behind the scenes really makes Global a great site to be on.
Is there some hidden setting I'm missing? Do I have to pay to read comments?
Please help.
Sometimes I need music to set a mood for a drawing - then probably soundtrack music like Interstellar, Inception, something like that.

A printer distributor (if you are the self publisher) will take some for print and shipping, which means you don't have to. If you are only doing short runs of small books, it may be preferable to do a print run and keep them under your bed, shipping them out yourself.
If you have lot going out and no time , it helps to have someone else take care of it. Bookstores ask for a 30-55% discount so they can make some money to cover their costs or offer discounts etc. The money is made in bulk sales, large numbers also bring down the print cost.
Short books are hard to move that way. Personally I've found 150 pages is a good minimum for a paperback.
For my own books, 235 pages, about $5 each to print, $13 cover price (manga tank average price). Without the shop discount, I get just less than $5 a copy. But for that I don't have to mess with shipping and storage. They print world wide. If order a case at cost, I make $8 per copy, but I have to lug them around and haggle them in person. I'm ok losing $3 to have it taken care of, so I can draw more and develop more titles to sell.
It used to be to live off of my own manga, but now I have bigger goals that have grown out of it.

Just another fool with a pen and stories to tell. Expect manga-inspired comics and a little something else! Author of Omen with midknightcomics. When I'm not driving my artist crazy with my scripts I spend my time reading, watching anime, and singing in the shower.
