First of all, if there’s one thing I learned about #romanceclass through this event, it’s that you only have to say “#RomanceClass–ASSEMBLE!” and that’s it. Everyone who’s able to lend a bit of time to help put together a Thing in an extremely short amount of time (TEN frickin’ DAYS, people) WILL go out of their way to do so. Sure, we may have been able to do so much more given ample preparation time, but Saturday’s turnout wasn’t bad. We sold books, served feels, and had a lot of good, (somewhat) clean fun. ^_^
#FeelsRushIn this Saturday!
And we are at it AGAIN! #RomanceClass is having another bookish event on Saturday, July 23, from 3:00-6:00 PM at the Trinoma Cinema Lobby (4/F Trinoma Mall, Quezon City) and you are invited! Here’s what you need to know:
- There will be book selling! If you missed #AprilFeelsDay, or have been planning to buy prints of #romanceclass releases after April, this is your chance! Check this graphic to see the titles available on that day.
- Fun merch! Aside from books, there will be tables selling shirts, bags, stickers, and other cool stuff. Make sure to bring extra pocket money!
- Live reading! Of course this is a must. Watch out for a new lineup of kilig scenes from #romanceclass books to be performed by our live readers. (Hint! Hint! Live reading will start at around 4:30PM.)
- Donate a book, get an eBook! We’re working in partnership with Ayala’s Little Free Library, and they are encouraging us to donate old books (any genre, any type will do as long as they’re still decent enough to read). As our way of thanking you, we’re offering free #romanceclass eBooks in exchange for your donations. You may choose from the bundle below:
Oh, and did I mention entrance is FREE? Yeap. Entrance is FREE. So, shall we see you on Saturday? Kitakits! <3
#HeistClub: The Launch | Official Trailer
Check out this cool trailer for the #HeistClub launch happening on June 25, 6-9PM at The Study by Enderun, Podium Mall, Ortigas! Credits to the awesome Chi Yu Rodriguez.
See you all there! ^_^
#HeistClub: The Launch
If you thought the Filipino indie writing community is all about the romance, think again. This coming June 25, sixteen new crime stories penned by Filipino authors will be officially launched as book bundles at The Study by Enderun at the 4th Floor of The Podium, Ortigas Center. Ten of these sixteen will also be releasing standalones in digital and print format!
Exciting, right? Full story below:
In November 2015, author and indie publisher Mina V. Esguerra facilitated an online workshop organized by Bronze Age Media and sponsored by Buqo and Enderun’s The Study.
The challenge for the Filipino author: Write tales of dark pathways and mysterious psyches, misdemeanor and trouble, dread and doubt. The story should be a Case # 1 (there’s a hint of a sequel or better yet, a series), set in the Philippines, and written in English.
#HeistClub came alive with writer-participants being guided by invaluable tips and lessons from mentors Jennifer Hillier (author of Creep and Freak), F.H. Batacan (author of Smaller and Smaller Circles), forensic anthropologist R.J. Taduran, life/non-life insurance executive Kevin Uy, Juliet Grames of Soho Press, and Atty. Andrea Pasion-Flores of Jacaranda Literary Agency.
At the end of the month-long workshop, sixteen crime stories were produced. They were released in three ebook bundles on Buqo in late January this year.
