Coffee guzzler. Story teller.  Sigher. Swooner.

I have stepped away from writing for a long while, been busy with real life then 2020 happened, giving me, and well, everyone, a pause.

I started writing again, mostly of how I felt about what's going on. And then of course with so much time in my hands, I began going through my story chest of drawers, revisiting old stories. Some of them are 20 something years old now, all grown up, that it blows my mind.

I realized that I  still want to write. The quarantine  allowed  me to imagine new story plots, meet cutes,  conflicts and happy endings. So maybe I'll try again. I do have have so many stories undone. So I figured why not try finishing them? It could also be my push and nudge to start writing new ones as well. 

Another thing I decided to do is to  translate all my work to English as I have a lot written in Taglish - Tagalog/Filipino & English. I figured, switching them all to English would allow me to share my stories with more readers. The more the merrier right?

So here I am trying again - and hopefully I stay.  I'll take it a step at a time and hopefully you'll take that journey with me.
