| Short Bio: |
I am an editor of publishing company CannonCreek Asia Inc. I also write for online publications. I contribute stories to Sun Star Daily Cebu and used to write for another daily, The Freeman.
I've been doing my craft since I was ten years old. At that age, I was already trying my hands on a novel, poetry and short stories. By the age of ten, I've written two novels.
At first, I wrote because I wanted to create a world I wanted to live in. I was a sickly child with protective parents. I tried making up a world where I was a totally different person. My writings were mostly in fiction.
Now, my writing has changed... quite a bit. My works in prose are mostly based on real life that I myself have experienced, and which most of the readers could relate to. They are mostly ordinary events that we usually fail to appreciate. In those happenings, I aim to let people see what is mostly left unseen. These works carry with them lessons in life.
I've come to realize that the world I live in is not a cruel and unhappy world at all, that I simply have to live my stories for me to find the happiness I seek, that I can write about everything... even little things, that through my words I can paint the beauty I see for others to be able to see it.
Poetry, on the other hand, is a realm where I can pour out an infinite world in me. It remains to be an expression of myself, but also a reflection of my relationship with the world.
I love the effortless style of Edgar Allan Poe. I also enjoy Dan Brown's Deception Point.
