Won’t you show us your feels? ^_^

RomanceClass #AprilFeelsDay2017 is coming really soon! We’re really, really excited about this event, especially since this is the SECOND time we’re putting together an April Feels Day event. Last year, we ventured into organizing a standalone event for the #romanceclass community of authors and readers, and suffice to say, we were SO HIGH from the experience that we just had to do it again.

(Of course, there were more events that happened after that, but that’s another story.)

This year’s April Feels Fest is happening on April 30, Sunday, at the Urban Turf, U.P. Town Center from 1:00 PM onwards. But before we get to that fun, feels-filled day, we’re bringing back #ShowMeYourFeels! Check this out:

Whether or not you’ll be able to attend April Feels Day, you may get a chance to win great prizes from #romanceclass! And all you have to do is read our books and spread the love! <3 How amazing is that?

More event-related announcements will be posted in the coming days, so make sure to track the #romanceclass and #AprilFeelsDay2017 on Twitter and Instagram. Also, follow the RomanceClass Books page on Facebook, as well as the April Feels Day event page!

See you on April 30! <3

#RomanceClass x Ayala Museum: A GIF + Video Post

First things first: Please DO NOT expect much coherence from this post. I know, I know. I’m a writer… I should at least manage to string together some decent words, yes? But Too Many Feelings and Too Few Hours of Sleep can do things to the brain, so… anyway.

February 11 was another day of firsts for #romanceclass. Let me enumerate them:

  • First time holding an event at the Ayala Museum
  • First time having six actors live read scenes from our books
  • First time having a How to Write a Romance Novel lecture read by the live readers
  • First time having a three-way live reading
  • First time having Vanya Castor as a live reader

Did I miss anything?

I probably did.

So yeah, anyway… we did a lot of other stuff before the live reading. That included book and merch selling, eating FREE cookies (thanks, Abbie! :D), browsing new books at the Book Cafe (thanks Caryn! :D), finding book blind dates, and playing games. To be honest, I only had two hours of sleep prior to the event, but the energy in the room (where it happened) kept me going.

Blog Tour / Interview | Keep the Faith by Ana Tejano

Happy Thursday, everyone! ^_^ On the blog today is an interview with author Ana Tejano about her book Keep the Faith, which is on tour (naks!) this week. I asked her about the challenges she face while writing her second book, her favorite character in Keep the Faith, and a fun, Valentine’s Day-related question about the book’s MC and LI.

But first, here’s what Keep the Faith is all about:

Ana Tejano

Release date: July 31, 2016

As a community development worker, Faith was quite familiar with heartbreak and recovery after all the time she spent on disaster relief missions. So when her five-year relationship ends right before she left for a mission trip to a typhoon-stricken town in Iloilo, she tries not to make a big deal out of it. How can she be broken up about a breakup when she’s with people who literally lost everything?

But now that she’s back, all Faith wants is for her life to go back to normal and have people stop looking at her with pity. Never mind that she still has a lot of questions about the breakup, or that she feels a tiny ache every time her ex comes up in conversations. She’s okay now, and happily distracted by Nico Tamayo, the attractive new guy at work.

With new possibilities in the horizon, Faith thinks she is well on her way to moving on. But when her past comes calling back to her, will all the good things in her present be enough to keep her on the path? Or will she finally learn that there was more to heartbreak and recovery than what she knows?
