TO be fair I half assed it because I was on a phone so my word choice could have been better.

But ya, there's around a dozen online companies that will pretty much publish anything that has a gay MC or a gay couple in it, reguardless of how extream or if its a plot point. I had an editor in one for awhile after writing grabage in 3 days and sumitting it, so it's rather easy to pull off. Ofc they can drop you midway, theres other books in the company, but its good for getting a foot in the door.

Amazon is pretty much anyone can make a book, so you have to pay to advertise and other stuff off site and because you can really only do digital copies without paying out for a 3rd party site or spending a bunch on Amazon, it has its downsides and limitations.

Though to be fair, I'm going for Amazon first simply because I have ideas I don't want to pander with or don't want a company to touch.
