Submitting to Blush Books (Komiket) and Vida New Adult (Vibal), and joining RomanceClass

What is RomanceClass?

How to join RomanceClass (as of July 2025)

1. Read the books. I recommend three to start, focusing on the ones that cover things you are interested in and may want to write about, so you know if you like what we create and if we’re the community that can help you.
   
2. Join a #RomanceClass (check here if there’s an upcoming class) OR purchase the textbook and learn at your own pace (gum.co/romanceclass).
   
3. Self-publish the book that you would like to be considered for inclusion as a RomanceClass book. “RomanceClass Books” are listed on our website, may have the RomanceClass logo on the cover, and can be sold at our events and our consignments at bookshops. These are books that had beta readers and/or editors from the community. 
   
   If this is something you want to pursue for your book, please contact mina@romanceclassbooks.com when you have a finished manuscript (and after you’ve done steps 1 and 2!) so I can recommend beta readers/editors from RomanceClass to work on your book.
