Streetprint Manila is a research project that is part of a larger research endeavour called “Six Continents and Between”. Initiated by Prof. Gary Kelly of the University of Alberta, 6CAB seeks to investigate popular print culture across various geographical, sociocultural, and ethnolinguistic contexts. More specifically, it aims to look at reading patterns and preferences of the Filipino Everyman, or those whom we would largely consider members of the “masa” class.
A typical romance novel has around 128 pages, though occasionally, 256-paged special editions would be published. It is not clear what criteria allow for longer narratives to be published, or if authors of such works get higher fees or royalties for their works.
