#BuwanNgAkdangPinoy: Yeyet Soriano
Yeyet Soriano has been writing her entire life, first as an angst-ridden teenager, then as a single working woman, then as a married working woman with kids. Though the themes of her written works have changed over the years, she held on to one truth—she needed to write to keep the voices in her head at bay.
Based in Manila, Philippines, her day job is that of an IT manager for the Asia-Pacific region for a multinational corporation. She is married to a man who reads only to fall asleep, and they have three wonderful kids—two of whom love to read and one, only starting to learn to read.

Yeyet has been my cheerleader. She encouraged me a lot of times. I want to thank her for everything she has done for me. She is my soul sister, I guess.
Yet, I am very thankful to God that He gave you to me. Cheers to more books and more bondings. I love you!

#BuwanNgAkdangPinoy: Chi Yu Rodriguez
Chi Yu Rodriguez has many feelings. Sometimes these feelings find their way to paper in the form of short stories and fiction online. Sometimes they don’t come out at all and end up as unresolved sexual tension or terrible internal angst.
She prefers making imaginary people go through these feelings for her pleasure. Her muses hate her for it, and they repay her by being forever fickle.
She wrestles with them in her head everyday.
