Buoyed by its popularity in the U.S., I plan to publish the manga in Japan and Southeast Asia, with the objective of enhancing my skills as a professional manga writer. Further, the numerous customer reviews that I receive allow me to reflect on my work objectively and serve as a source of inspiration for future manga writing.įive-star ratings, in particular, reinvigorate me and make me happy that readers around the world enjoy my manga in many different ways.īECAUSE I’M A MAID!’s success as a long-time best seller has served to enhance awareness of manga worldwide.

However, production and distribution through independent publishing using KDP enables me to create manga that are translated into English, French and other languages for readers across the globe, while living in Japan. Acquiring the skills required to become a professional manga writer through self-study and understanding industry trends was also a challenge.

While my family continued to support my efforts to become a manga writer, I struggled to find the time to write manga as I lived on my own and was also working elsewhere at the time.
