I’m back with a cool update—I’m going to be part of a Writing Celebrity/Showbiz Romance panel at the next stop of Kilig Cafe’s Tambay Tour! <3
The Kilig Cafe Tambay Tour is a mix between a casual writing/reading hangout and an intimate discussion with authors and other special guest speakers. We kicked off this fun new project last June 6 at Hygge Book Apothecary, a Pride Month edition with authors Brigitte Bautista and Chi Yu Rodriguez. We also invited our live readers Migs Almendras, Teetin Villanueva, and Hessa Palma to do a mini live reading of excerpts from Brij’s and Chi’s books.
On July 4, I will be one of the panelists together with fellow #RomanceClass author Danice Mae P. Sison and industry friends Celeste Lumasac-Santiago and Katherine Visconti.

Celeste Lumasac-Santiago is the program manager of “Magpakailanman,” the longest running and most awarded drama anthology on GMA and “Kamao,” the newest afternoon prime drama program on GMA.
Katherine Visconti is a professional writer with over a decade of experience. She began her career as a journalist in the Philippines, then went to Hollywood to write for popular U.S. television series, “Chicago P.D.” and “FBI.” She has also produced streaming shows across Southeast Asia, including the award-winning romantic series “K-Love” and “Secret Ingredient.” Katherine holds a bachelor’s degree from Johns Hopkins University with a double major in Writing Seminars and East Asian Studies.
This Tambay Tour is happening at the 2nd floor of Communé Cafe in Poblacion, Makati, from 1:00 – 4:00 pm. If you’d like to join us next week, please sign up for a slot here! The entrance fee is P500, inclusive of a drink, pastry, and a small gift. Walk-ins are also welcome, with an entrance fee of P600.
We hope to see you there!
Because you don’t need to change a thing,
to mask your flaws,
to be someone else
to love
and be loved.
LOVE AS YOU ARE is a contemporary romance novel about thirty-somethings Isagani and Moe, who try to figure out their feelings for each other, and heal their inner child in the process. The book is set in the Philippines, in the first half of 2022, when the world was just beginning to open up and Filipinos were feeling hopeful about change.
This book is for
🍩 all the panganays who had to grow up so fast
🍩 anyone who’s ever been ridiculed for their looks
🍩 hopeless romantics who still believe in love
🍩 romance fans who don’t mind a bit of spice
🍩 everyone who’s simply looking for a light and (mostly) fluffy read
The book comes out in August! In the meantime, if you are interested in an ARC, the sign up form will be open until June 29 only.
Hello, hello friends! While we’re waiting for the release of #ProjectIsagani, I’d like to invite you to get to know Isagani Alvez’ youngest brother, Pio, through his book, Like Nobody’s Watching!
Like Nobody’s Watching is a fake dating romance between Pio, a charming TV/film actor and Audrey, a feisty advertising creative nursing a broken heart. The ruse begins when Audrey asks Pio to be her date to a company party, wanting to show her cheating ex-boyfriend (who is hosting the party) that she has moved on.
Like Nobody’s Watching is only $0.99 on Amazon until June 30! Get your copy today.
