On Other Books
"Time Keeper" by Mitch Albom
really melt my heart when I read it in the Philippines outside my late
grandmother's house because Mitch was able to connect three characters
in the story. The ending was touching as they were all accepting and
deserving. I remember the font size and "short" the story was which I
also enjoyed reading.
From all the books, this
is the creative one because usually it is just one conflict and
solution in a story but this.. It is about connectivity among the
characters. Mitch Albom did a great job as always.
On my Writing Process
I
always start from the head (aka mind) and what I love to write about
because I have to be passionate to finish the work. When I wrote, Time
Travel, my YA Science Romance Novel I had to think really hard about the
story is about, characters, genre, creativity, originality to make it
presentable to publishing companies and readers. Then of course, I love
doing it.
I took a nearly a year-break because I was in the Philippines.
After
I wrote, Time Travel. At first, I did not edit it which was my biggest
regret so I did got many rejections and few acceptance from traditional
and non-traditional publishers. I almost go with one of the
non-traditional publishers but the cost prevented me. This was the time I
learned the importance of editing.
I did my edits twice, sent it to an editor then publishers.
