Hi, friends (especially readers of “Champions”)! As you all know *ehem*, I’m in the process of writing our second book, “Heroes.” BUT I NEED YOUR HELP. I want to involve you in the creative process, and I want to hear your thoughts. Are you willing to meet up with me to share your thoughts, comments, questions, or even violent reactions on “Champions”? I’m also willing to answer any questions you might have. I ask you questions, you ask me questions, is that okay? I don’t want to call this a Focused Group Discussion because that sounds really serious. I want this to be fun and light. Let’s just call it a “kwentuhan” session, and we’ll fawn over the book and the characters (and maybe you tell me what worked and what didn’t.) Those who will join me in this special Champions’ Get-together will receive the following as thank-you-I-love-you gifts: 1. First look on the unpublished draft of “Heroes” once it’s finished. (You get to have a say in the final draft!) 2. A signed copy of the paperback / published version of “Heroes” 3. A sneak peek into my other projects (“The Braves”, “Thirty Going Tita”, and an untitled, but fully-conceptualized Filipino fantasy novel) 4. A sneak peek into “Empires” and “Legends” — books 3 and 4 of The Lost Chronicles of Eden 5. A short talk on the basics of storytelling 6. Cameos on my stories / mentions in my books 7. My eternal love and gratitude I’m planning to hold this small, intimate gathering this coming January 21, 2017 (Saturday), and/or February 4, 2017 (Saturday). PM me if you’re interested so I can send you more details! #projectbeautifulwords #champions #heroes #book2 #writing #bookstagram #authordiaries
