KRMA

By Lucem · Fiction novel

Karma is a deity, and she keeps a ledger. The agent she made to balance it has worn a great many names across two thousand years — but he calls himself Sage.

The ledger is always open.

“Traditional publishing takes your story, minimizes your royalties, and asks you to be grateful. We believe a different model is not just possible — it's necessary.” Agada Publishings, founder's note

How we do it

Four stages, one partnership

01

We discover your story

Every partnership begins with understanding your vision — your characters, your world, your goals. We read every submission and take every story seriously.

02

We build it together

Our editorial and design teams work alongside you — not above you. Cover design, formatting, manga layout, and every creative decision reflects your intent.

03

We launch & distribute

Digital and print. Manga platforms. Retail and direct-to-reader channels. We position your work where your audience already lives.

04

We split the profit — fairly

Revenue generated by your work comes back to you. Every sale, every download, every copy — split fairly. No fine print. No hidden deductions.
