Your voice helps shape our publishing program.
Thank you for being part of the journey! ✨
Collectors’ Circle members may also add them to the licensing discussion channel.
All submission channels will be given equal importance.
Join in on the fun by compiling your recommendations and sharing them with us!
For non-JJWXC novels, this restriction does not apply, so you’re welcome to share those with us before March 7 for consideration in our 2026 licensing slate as well.
You can send recommendations in the comments, via DM, or through the form.
All titles recommended until March 7 will be included in our first pool of shortlisting. Submissions after that date will move to a second pool for potential 2027 releases.
One more note: the 250,000 character guideline applies only to JJWXC recommendations.
Quick update on recommendations!
Since we’ve received a large number of JJWXC requests, we’re currently considering titles under 250,000 Chinese characters for those submissions.
If you have a Danmei or Baihe novel within that range, feel free to share it with us along with the source link.
Yes, we should have! We have sent emails out to all those whose recommendations we couldn’t identify.
Providing this information will help us locate and evaluate the works much more quickly. Thank you again for taking the time to share your recommendations with us. We truly appreciate the enthusiasm and look forward to bringing many of these titles to our readers!
#CrossedHearts #Licensing
To help us review recommendations more efficiently, we kindly ask that you include the following details whenever possible:
• The original title in its native language
• The author’s name in the original language
• The source publisher
• A link to the title (original publisher page)
As the number of submissions are quite large, it may not always be possible for us to reach out individually whenever we are unable to identify a title.
For several Chinese works in particular, tracing the English reference provided and identifying the original publisher using only the translated title took considerable time.
Please note that we do review all recommendations carefully. Our team has now completed the first round of shortlisting from all submissions received on the form up to today. However, in some cases we were unable to identify the source titles.
Some of you who submitted recommendations through our licensing form may have received an email from us today in cases where we were unable to locate the titles that were suggested.
That’s right! 💛
Thank you! 🫶🏻
More announcements are on the horizon, and we’re excited to share them with you soon. As for the Baihe titles, we ask for a little more patience. We’re currently discussing ways to move the announcement timeline forward and hope to share news sooner rather than later.
Meanwhile, something wonderful has been unfolding behind the scenes. Through suggestions shared in our Collectors’ Circle Discord and community forms, we’ve begun conversations with several GL creators and publishers whose works you recommended. We hope to bring many of those stories to you soon ✨
