It’s the season of new #romanceclass releases once again, and it is with great pride that I present this exciting new book from good friend and fellow #romanceclass author, Chi Yu Rodriguez! ^_^
I’ll give you a couple more seconds to take it in. Go ahead. Take it all in. Isn’t that cover beautiful? <3
*snaps fingers*
All right, now — deets!
Yes, you better believe it, darlin’ — this year, we’re having the FOURTH annual #romanceclass April Feels Day!
First thing’s first: THE DEETS.
Just like our previous #romanceclass events, we’ll be launching new books, selling books and merchandise (featuring work created by #romanceclass authors, readers, and other members of our community), and, of course, having live readings! If you’re the type who likes to come prepared, here are the titles being featured on that day:
More information about the event will be announced soon! Track the hashtags #romanceclass and #AprilFeelsDay2019 on Twitter and Instagram to get the latest updates!
We hope to see you there! <3
Last Saturday, March 2, #romanceclass had a “double-feature” book launch for Danice Mae P. Sison’s Flipping the Script (#romanceclassFlicker #2) and Mina V. Esguerra’s Kiss and Cry (#Six32Central #2).
As always, it was a fun morning day, filled with stories and good food (and tea, lots of it). I don’t know about you, but I like #romanceclass book launches. Apart from the fact that I like seeing our books being displayed and photographed in various venues, they’re always so casual and fun, and we usually play a lot of musical chairs — as in people transferring from one seat to another to socialize or simply to say hello.
For last Saturday’s launch, we were treated to brunch (braunch, anyone?) at Kanto Freestyle in Annapolis, Greenhills. There was Chocnut Champorado (yes, it’s A Thing!) and Pulled Beef Pares Nachos for everyone, while I ordered some Chili Garlic Longganisa and coffee for myself. In the middle of brunching and chatting, people bought books, asked for them to be signed, took pictures, and Instagrammed the day away. Very chill. ^_^
If you don’t already know, here’s what Flipping the Script and Kiss and Cry are about.
First things first: Happy New Year, everybody! <3 Gosh–time flies so fast, doesn’t it? I hope everyone returned from their holiday vacations refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready for the year ahead.
So…fun fact: I had slacked off on writing early November.
(Except that’s not actually a ~fun fact, because it makes me uncomfortable that I was rather unproductive toward the year’s end, but that’s okay, I’ve already forgiven myself since I was able to churn out a couple thousand words AND finished That Thing I Was Supposed To Have Finished in October. HEYYYYYYY! <3)
Fun fact #2: I DID end up creating something else early December. With some really cool people you might already know.
Curtains have opened once again for one of my favorite Filipino musicals, Mula sa Buwan, and I AM ECSTATIC! I always thought it was a shame the runs for this show were extremely short, so I’m really happy they’re producing a total of sixteen shows now (well, down to twelve now, because they’ve already opened last Friday). I caught yesterday’s 3PM show, and here’s a list of notable things I loved in this rerun:
