Ramadan 2 - Review

Alhamdulillah, learnt more new things regarding publishing. Definitely worlds apart for academic journals paper publishing vs book publishing. There is a 2nd & 3rd tier to publications ecosystems in the local market. Also different preferences between the races when we look into genre and ‘topic branding’. Almost everything is thriving on the consumerism culture; what sells get published more. Things trending especially religious practices, specifically Islam. The notion that if I buy those books, I keep it, I will feel more holy is the ever green market niche. 

Iftaar today was like yesterday but minus the dahi bada, eggs and plus otak-otak goreng and chana daal pakoras. Ensuring proper diet is necessary when the window between sunset and sunrise is small. 

Rained cats and dogs today from 4.30pm to 7.30pm. Emir also practiced writing khat today 👍MashaAllah 

Sold 10 books as of today, alhamdulillah. Targeted plans are necessary 📚
