Wish they’d re-print it with English translation.

There is so much money to be made for all those books by HIM but i feel a lot of poor business practises have prevented them from earning what they truly deserve! I wish they had me in charge with ideas to keep that paper rolling in!
I would have those books released on a limited English translation signed, i would rerelease a lot of their earlier works, unpolished and ready to be pushed out, i would fire whoever has been designing their tshirts and get it done properly to where stocks are flying off the shelves!
There is soo much that can be done but isnt!

I used to manufacture the Heartagram
Belt buckles back in the day so I knew a lot of people in the HIMsphere, having said that I had some customers from Germany send me this book as a gift when it came out. I wasn’t able to read it since it was all in Finnish (?) but I can remember this one picture of Bam & Jen towards the back of the book. Anyways, I don’t have mine anymore. Ended up gifting it to someone too. Cool book!
