  • Of How Unspoken Words Came into Existence

    When I ran a poll on Instagram the other day, a surprising amount of respondents requested for me to post more information about my upcoming book, Unspoken Words. Some requested for information regarding the characters, some about my outlining process, and the rest were an equal mix between my writing process and publication date. The…


  • Post NaNoWriMo 2017 Thoughts

    After my bold statement last month on how I was going to participate in NaNoWriMo, you must have been wandering, where have I gone this whole month? (Or maybe you haven’t, but let’s assume that you have.) I am going to answer that question by letting you know where I am right now, as I believe…


  • How to Plot? – with Yarii

    With the end of October only a few days away, I really have to work on my NaNoWriMo project outline on my writer’s notebook, which I have rather abandoned last week because I went on a vacation. Problem is—plotting or outlining has never been my strong point. This is especially a big problem when I…


  • Preptober Week 2: Planning for NaNoWriMo 2017 on a Busy Week

    So, I found this inside my mailbox today: And for the first time since the long and arduous second week of October started, I was reminded that I am going to participate in NaNoWriMo 2017. Now, of course it wasn’t like I suddenly woke up one day and forgot such an important event. After all, I…


  • How I Use a Midori Style Traveler’s Notebook to Prepare for NaNoWriMo 2017

    If you have been following me on Twitter, you might have already known that I recently purchased a Midori style traveler’s notebook from a local leather craftsman. If you’re not familiar with the concept, Midori Traveler’s Notebook is basically a notebook setup that consists of a slab of leather with several elastics on the spine…


  • NaNoWriMo 2017 + My Thoughts on the Dreaded Preptober

    If the banner above hasn’t given away what I’m about to write in this post, then let me clarify it for you: Yes, I am participating in NaNoWriMo 2017. This shouldn’t be very surprising, since I have talked about how I wrote my debut novel, 3 (Tiga) as a NaNoWriMo project. In case you didn’t…


  • My Writing Playlist: 3 (Tiga)

    A lot of people has been asking me, what kind of music do I listen to when I am writing my novels? Now the truth is, I don’t necessarily need music to keep me in the zone. Of course I listen to them, but I wouldn’t consider music as my absolute writing essentials. I do have…


  • SUPERFICIAL

      I remember you said that you liked the decorative pins on my hair. You told me I looked beautiful in that teal colored one-piece dress, and that putting on makeup made me much more vibrant; much more alive. I remember taking off the decorative pins, tearing away the dress, wiped off the makeup, and…
