Still wonky on the lighting pero madaming narating writing-wise in fairness kapag hindi mo “focus” ang writing (kasi focus ko na makapag-focus dahil nagsi-stream) mas playful ang approach ko sa pagsusulat. Ang weird! Parang that quote about that sideways pursuit of happiness. Baka magstream sa YouTube at Twitch nang sabay…
Leave a Comment(Ang featured image ay galing sa pagbating post ng Avenida Books.) Ayus! Napasali ang nobela kong “Hoy, Pong!” bilang finalist sa kategoryang Best Novel in Filipino ng 42nd National Book Awards ng National Book Development Board–Philippines at Manila Critics Circle. Nasa 326 na libro ang na-nominate (sabi ng GMA news…
Leave a CommentPosting my first and ugly test stream here to figure out if I like doing it after a few weeks. Don’t watch it, the audio sucks and I cough a lot in it. I’m not exactly aural but even I got very annoyed by both my voice and the keyboard…
Leave a CommentI’ve learned by being in writing discussion groups that have pro (authors who’ve been paid market rates in exchange for the right to publish their stories on a venue) writers in them (who don’t know me) that submitting to venues is a super important part of getting published. I say…
Leave a CommentNagka-Covid ako noong June hanggang early July. Teorya ko ay nakuha ko ito noong nag-CR ako bago manood ng Furiosa isang Sabado. Pagdating ng Lunes ng gabi, tila may naramdaman akong pangangati ng lalamunan. Pero dahil nasa periphery na ito ng nalalapit na mens, as usual, hindi ko masyado ito…
Leave a CommentThat is, naniwala na sila sa wakas. Nakailang request din ako na oo ako ‘to. Check out the three-star review, ang cute. Ang bait din ni C.L. Balagoza sa paglagay ng review niya from Facebook to Goodreads. In fairness sa shelves ko, mukhang tinangka ko talagang ilagay lahat ng librong…
Leave a CommentWhat a way to lose the plot. I had all these plans to do a bit of marketing on the book, which by the way, has been getting some love for the cover (please very much judge my book by the cover art), thanks to Rombutan for saying yes and…
Leave a CommentMakikilala niyo na sina Dante, Raya, Keebs, at Pong! So excited for you. Matagal kong tinrabaho ang “side project” na ‘to at inilaban ang mga minutong makapagsulat kahit madaming distractions sa buhay. Ang nobela ko ay nasa young adult category at maituturing na urban fantasy. Tungkol ito sa dalawang college…
Leave a CommentHello, I’m in Dublin! I’m on the ground floor of my new digs. There’s squirrels or maybe chipmunks (I haven’t researched yet), this black bird with a white tummy and a royal blue tail, and this chunky maya-looking bird with the red-orange chest. And there’s trees and shrubs and a…
Leave a CommentIpinanganak at lumaki akong kaliwete, primarily dahil tinamad na ang mga magulang ko na korekin ako tulad ng ginawa nila sa kapatid ko. Hindi ko naman masabi kung for better or worse ang desisyon na ‘yon dahil wala naman akong panilip sa mga parallel universe kung saan right-handed ako. Wala…
