Yep. YMAA was distributed by PGW back when we did ABA. They subsquently moved on to another indie distributor but recently returned to them.
The YMAA bossmang invited me to sit in on their presale meeting for 3 new YMAA titles this morning. It went for an hour and there were about a dozen of us - me and the bossmang and reps from B&N, Amazon, Ingram, Library, and others all under the PGW umbrella. It was a fascinating look into book publishing - still a thriving industry thankfully but multidimensional now. Despite the brick&mortar stores closing, covid has had little affect on the publishing industry overall.
