this is the uncut version of my bio |

Eversince, I was a kid I dreamt of becoming a writer. Probably got it from reading too many comic magazines. You see, in my country the Philippines, one of the favorite past time is reading "komiks", an illustrated magazine that features serialized stories of romance, drama, adventure, comedy and what have you. Some of these stories were later on turned into soap operas and movies due to their popularity. Anyway, komiks made my mind soar and I created stories in my mind during those afternoon naps I was supposed to be napping but instead weaving stories in my mind. Usually, in my stories I would be a rich kid with the love of my life (depends on who was my crush at that time) tagging along as we traveled to different places. Since I lived in the city, I would dream of rural places where I would be swimming in rivers, hiking mountains, climbing trees, and of course, spending money that was limitless. I started to appreciate writing in highschool. I remember some senior students who read my essays wanting to meet me. I took up journalism in college and won some awards. One was on the spot essay writing contest which got featured in our campus newspaper and eventually landed me a spot as one of its writers and editors. After graduation, I took a teaching post in our church's ACE school where one of my responsibility was teaching children to write book reports. This experience made me appreciate literature more and gave me a chance to make a more in depth study of some great pieces of literature. I still dream of one day making it big as an established author and with writing.com assisting me, I could see that it's just one novel away. {  } |
