After several years of publishing novels,
my thoughts on the current reading trends is…
MARCO POLO
Similar to the current trend of short videos,
readers capable of reading large amounts of text and lengthy pages are gradually decreasing.
So…
1. Novels with appropriate length
are relatively easier for readers to engage with.
2. Getting straight to the point at the beginning
has become important.
MARCO POLO
The impact of KOL, celebrity endorsements, and social media promotion
is becoming increasingly significant.
maybe…
1. The proportion of people browsing bookstores is declining.
Among the myriad of books, most readers will prioritize
those recommended by others.
2. We should creating topics or trends.

Reading time
is becoming fragmented !
01
MARCO POLO
Maybe…
1. Creating books in a more portable size.
2. E-books are becoming more important !
(replacing time spent on electronic devices)
MARCO POLO
How to attract public
interest and attention to books?
02
MARCO POLO
Maybe…
1. Increasing the connection between giveaways and books.
For novels related to the environment and forests:
We chose to pair them with
seed pens that can be freely planted and support sustainable development.
MARCO POLO
Maybe…
2. Holding physical lectures and linking them
with different keywords and themes.
Travel Literature Lectures�Combining themes of
“knowledge,” “humanities,” “spirituality,” and “politics,”
we host multiple lectures to attract diverse readers to explore travel literature together.

#Satirical Feminism
She didn't yet know how to healthily embrace being a woman when she gave birth to a daughter.
Women endure many indescribable pressures and emotions from the moment of pregnancy, but they can't appear too fragile for fear of being judged as unprepared for motherhood.

#About Food
Writing about food is also writing about family.
It’s not only an exploration of the aesthetics of dining
but also a reflection on the punctuation marks of life.
It’s not just a return to observing societal customs
and home life but also a journey of self-reflection,
nurturing affection, and personal growth.
Thank you :)
