Drama Queen is Back in the Game
BL fans in the US have been extremely patient with Drama Queen, a young yaoi publisher with a number of anticipated licenses that have still not been put out over a year after their announcement (such as Tyrant Falls in Love and Naked Jewels Corporation), and the next issue of their own OEL BL anthology Rush).
Publisher Tran Nguyen, who I will personally vouch for as being one of the cutest people in this business, chatted with Publishers Weekly about the status of the company, who haven’t put out a book in some time (since September 2007, actually). The company has a new financial partner and has a new round of books (including all of those mentioned above) going to the printers. The good news is that during the downtime of not publishing things, the staff have worked on a number of books, so they have a healthy backlog of things to put out now.
I dunno about you, but I’m looking forward to finally seeing Tyrant.
