Just a quick update: my artist and I are currently working on our upcoming Webtoon. I have already written some chapters, and we have some character designs ready.
I'm super excited to see our characters come to life in comic form. I can't reveal the title of our comic or the story details just yet. It's a secret for now.
While you're waiting for more updates, please subscribe to my new comic, InviHeart, a collaboration with the talented Sphomont. Sphomont is also the artist I worked with on my completed short comic, "Waiting Under the Stars."
InviHeart is a romance/action comic about Kayle Kokoro, one of The Blackbelts and their leader. Despite being feared by everyone in their school, Kayle and her friends are kindhearted and protect students from gangsters and bullies. We have already completed some chapters, and I'm excited to see the rest unfold in such a beautiful comic. We will start posting the comic once we have enough buffers.
Here's the link to InviHeart. Subscribe to get notified when our first episode is released.
It's been a while again since I open my Tapas account.
Well, I have some good news <3 My novelette: Sky With You is accepted by a publisher, won third place in a writing contest, and the date of publication will be on February 2025 next year. Truth to be told, I thought when I was writing my story it was a bit rush due to time constraints, but when you put your heart and soul into writing, it shows. The judge commented that Sky With You is heartfelt and the ending made a lasting impact on him as endings should have made an impact on readers. That's one of his criteria in judging the entries.
But there are not all good news, sadly.
My supposed to be published book this year, The Cure Called Love, the publisher sadly cancelled the publication. But I am thankful to them still because they are the first publisher who believed in my work.
And also, I lately got rejected once again with another story: I Wish My Life Is A Manga. I am not discourage just a bit sad, but thankful for all the support my readers gave me during the time I was writing the story. Some even sent me a message telling me how they like my story, despite not being included in the list of to be published stories.
I have decided to continue submitting the rejected stories to different publishers and hope one day my stories will find the best home they deserve.
To end things with a good news, I have a new upcoming comic on the works, an action/fantasy webtoon which details I won't be sharing just yet. But just know, me and my talented artist are working on it. We can't wait to share the comic with you guys <3 The character designs are awesome!
I am also currently waiting for an update regarding my other upcoming comic, a drama/romance webtoon <3 I believe in my artist for this project as her talent shines so much in her drawings.
Maybe I'll be releasing two webtoons next year. Who knows, right?
I am sharing here the gorgeous book cover art by Artinez Flexilis. Here's Sky With You's blurb.
OMg! Third place!? And it’s going to be published! Congrats congrats congrats! 🎉 😉👏👏👏👏 and yes, it is a common thing for books not to be published at first only because they haven’t found their publisher yet (if you get what I mean), so please keep trying, I know their publishers are out there somewhere. 👍 and I can never resist a good webtoon so I can’t wait for the new comics to come out! Wishing you the best of luck this new year ✌️
Thank you 🩷 Yes, hopefully I can find a publisher for my other stories, will improve them, add more chapters to both stories, and will also make some edits to make the stories ready for submission. I will keep trying on submitting my stories to different publishers and see my luck. Hoping for the best😊✨ Will announce here about my new comics once they're out and ready to be read. Wishing you also good luck and happiness this new year. I believe this year will begin with great things ahead. ✨
Echoes of Love In Manila is officially completed and I haven't been able to announced it here because my internet connection was lost for a week due to a recent typhoon. But now it's back and I am hoping it won't happen again, please. Anyhow, I am really happy for completing another comic once again. I am thankful for the collaboration me and EMJI had. So if you haven't read our comic just yet, it's a short read and since it's completed already, it's perfect for binge reading. <3
If you're interested in reading my short stories/one-shots, they are on my Wattpad.
One of them is a romance one-shot highlighting the delicious Filipino dessert: halo-halo. It's cold, creamy, and best to eat when it's summer and hot. But heck, I'm eating halo-halo even on rainy days because it's a great dessert, I mean the best dessert ever! :D
In my book cover, that's what a halo-halo looks like as an illustration <3
The story is about a bubbly and full-of-sunshine girl, who is assigned to work in a food stall with the snobbish, quiet, and known-to-be heartless guy. What could possibly happen?
