Hi sorry, hope I’m not late, if I am I’ll email you. Just one quick question. Do these lemurs mate for life, or do they mate with multiple partners throughout their lives??

Thank you for hosting such an interesting AMA 🥰

This style is very common when it comes to Japanese light novels. Kind of a mix between scriptwriting and traditional novel. This is the first time I've seen it outside that whole Japanese genre though. It's a really specific style of writing for a really specific genre. As long as OP likes it that's what matters. But I'll just say it probably won't really appeal to readers in the traditional market. The cover is great. Though, like others have said, is really more found in the YA category.

I applaud your creativity and the pure enthusiasm with which you've self-published, but maybe try out a test audience beforehand next time.

I'm sure you feel the title is pertinent to the story, but I'll be honest, it really does not sound appealing. If your goal is a passion project that's just for you, then great, but if you are hoping to market to a wider audience, test reads and market appeal are very important
