Stuff I like: Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2024) and a bunch more

Hihi! The past couple of weeks have been good for me, media-wise–as I’m always privately complaining that I have nothing to watch or read. This wouldn’t be such an issue if I was excited about trying out new shows but I often become overwhelmed with choices and the instant feedback, so I end up re-watchingContinue reading “Stuff I like: Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2024) and a bunch more”

Cover reveal: ChasingWaves

You guys ready? Here goes! Isn’t that soooo pretty??? My single mom / age gap / workplace romance finally has a cover that’s perfect for the story of Mags and Luke. Thank you so much to Miles Tan for the cover and layout and Chi Yu Rodriguez for the cover photo, which features Gio GaholContinue reading “Cover reveal: ChasingWaves”

Stuff I Like: Marie Antoinette (2006)

I don’t know why I’d never seen Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette before, but I’m glad I finally rectified that. This movie is A Vibe. It’s what the kids call “aesthetic.” It’s a feast for the eyes and a plunge into privilege so heightened it feels like indulging into one too many French pastries. It’s allContinue reading “Stuff I Like: Marie Antoinette (2006)”

Proof of life/new edition of an old book

Hello! I realized that I posted about starting a new blog series about a year ago…and didn’t post again. I had a thought about posting reviews to things I liked–which is what I do mostly on Threads now, although I want to give it up soon (the stupidity of the trending posts there are ASTOUNDING)Continue reading “Proof of life/new edition of an old book”

Stuff I like – a new blog series

Since going on a romance writing hiatus, I find myself turning towards reviews as my creative outlet. During the pandemic I had a short stint reviewing Netflix series for a local paper and I really miss it. But even without that gig you’ll typically find me live-tweeting whatever I’m watching or reading. I also triedContinue reading “Stuff I like – a new blog series”

10 years of Bianca Mori

(Or, Happy 10th Birthday to my first Bianca manuscript!) On February 15, 2024, I sent the completed manuscript of One Night At The Palace Hotel (ONATPH, because it’s a pain to type out all the time) to two beta readers. ONATPH was a product on the 2014 Buqo Steamy Reads workshop. The indomitable Mina V.Continue reading “10 years of Bianca Mori”

Mic test

So. Hello. Are you still there? I’m still here. Battered and older but here. Let’s see… It’s been nearly two years since I last posted. I don’t have a book or a story coming out. (And I don’t know when, or if, I will ever write a story again…more on that later). I don’t haveContinue reading “Mic test”

Love is All Around: An Alta Holiday Anthology

Woah, she lives! It’s been six months since this blog was updated, and part of the reason why is this: I was thick into plotting, and then writing, and then re-writing my story for Alta 2, the sequel to Alta: A High Society Romance Anthology. And now, a smidge late for our original Christmas deadlineContinue reading “Love is All Around: An Alta Holiday Anthology”
