True-to-life
kapag ang reader nag-comment na ang nabasa niyang akda ay mala-true-to-life, naiisip ko… aba dapat lang. dahil iyon naman ang objective ng isang manunulat. iyon din ang batayan ng kagalingan ng may-akda sa paglikha ng kwento. dahil dapat lang maramdaman ng mambabasa ang katotohanan sa likod ng binabasa niya. tama lang na maramdaman niya, ma-involve siya sa mga pinagdaraanan ng mga tauhan ng kwento, fiction man, o fantasy, o kung anuman ang tema ng sulatin.
sana isaisip ito nating mga manunulat. honesty. sincerity. whole-hearted endeavor dapat ang bawat akda. otherwise, our readers will label us fakes.
i don’t want that. do you?

My BFF Angel Bautista‘s novel Once A Princess (released by Precious Pages Corp.) is included in the 2013 Filipino Reader’s Choice Awards! Currently, according to the partial and unofficial tally, she’s 4th in the Novel in Filipino category. Only three will be awarded.
*** Edit: Sorry, wrong info. Three will be chosen to advance to the next round where a panel will judge one to be the best.
There’s still time. Voting ends on 06 September. Vote for her, yes?
Thank you!!!
Congrats Reev!
