Oh my goodness gracious Barron, I cannot believe I just found this video😂 This just hits too close to home! I too have just written an illustrated storybook primarily for adults and am in the beginning stages of publishing. Today I began researching how to market such a book without folks assuming it’s a children’s book because of the typical cover, illustrations and size🤦🏽♀️ This is when I came across your video. I felt every concern you mentioned here (including slapping on a disclaimer in the subtitle-which I may still do). I LOVE YOUR not-so-SUBTLE HUMOR ABOUT IT😂 I declare this the go-to empathy video for all authors who find ourselves in this predicament-thank you kind sir! When my book “Just an Idea” finally hits the shelf, I’m gonna hit ‘em up with a much needed new genre the world never realized it was missing. Keep fighting the good fight! Godspeed, Yrana Rachele Avery
