That works too actually, and we still have maneuvering time. It's great to submit your best quality stuff but I'm actually more worried about how the publish on demand stuff works! When we figure that out by releasing a reasonable-quality anthology then we can be confident on how the others work.

Okay guys, so I was thinking of what cover the anthology should have.

Should it be

1- ironically done in a bad way with stick figures by one of our artists?

2 -  Use Writer-tan

or

3

I was thinking of something on the lines of the Faust magazine covers.

Big title with some unique font and then some two or three anime characters in the foreground. Simple stuff with not much detail or whatever, depending on what we can swing






I'm going to get help from a publisher friend to edit the mass of words together soon, so I know how busy we all are but please work on getting those submissions in!


Also share thoughts and discuss

Indeed. I'll make some mockups just to see how feasible it is....

So here's what I have





Not sure which version works better, if the original image is even worth salvaging.  Thoughts?

Aside from the guy on top having some weirdly poofy hair and a wonky arm, HOLY BALLS THIS LOOKS FANTASTIC.

For reals, lego. I got some Yo*censored*aka Amano vibes here. I like it, and also vote for #2.

Glad you like it people! And Nair, yeaup, that was the inspiration.

I'm working with createspace and it's driving me insane. It's asking for Tax information now? What the hell are all these forms and stuff. And where does Mangaraiders exist? In the US? Guuuurgh 

I'm just going to do a spellcheck to accomplish something but I'm just so useless here, have no idea what platform to use to self publish this thing.

MR is based on  US server i can tell you that much. but anything else you'd have to get from Hasith. do you really need all that stuff?

Wait, I can't even use Yo$hitaka Amano's name without getting censored? Weird. Also, I need to double-check, but I found a grammatical error in my short story, so we need to abandon the whole project and forget it ever happened.

We had this problem before since MR is not a registered business you need to do as person. I mean in previous times it was Co who made an account in printers site and got it going. Since she was living out side of Europe Taxes was not a problem. But we used another 2 services not createspace.
