#MIBF2016: I LIVE TO INSPIRE
I am finding the right words to say. But I cannot find any. I have been staring at our laptop for an hour; trying to compose words.
I live to inspire. That is what I am going to do all the days of my life. I have written stories that will make you tickled your imagination to a possibility of a happily ever after (Kilig). I am beginning to expand my horizon in trying to pen crime stories too. But what I am longing to write is something to let people know that there is a big God who is taking care of me. He has been so faithful to me that He led me into a career I have always wanted.
Manila International Book Fair (MIBF) is a yearly event that is catering the world of literature and arts. It has been running for 37 years.
I cannot believe that one day I will be one of the exhibitors! That day happened by the grace of God. He allowed me to risk. He instructed me to try.
When I saw two of my books along aside with my favorite Filipina authors, I got so overwhelm!

HeistClub’s first stint on MIBF and we were successful! YEY.
HeistClub Titles are now available at Craft Central – Greenbelt 5.
I didn’t get to attend the #ALLTHEFEELS because of TRAFFIC. Sayang!!
I arrived when Chi, author of The Bye-bye Bouquet, was about to leave! Why Chi? Haha…

Being with the talented authors and considering them as friends were the best feeling ever! I live for the glory of God! I am living because God uses me for His vineyard.
