fresh, salty kesong puti, laguna white cheese, that's not even a day old, is the best! it's today's breakfast, if not the at least three day aged salty and slightly sour cheese, fried, topped on rice or pasta.

How to be a writer, #35790000:
Wake at 4 am from terrifying dream
Open laptop, add new and terrifying scene to WIP
Go back to sleep
Wake up again, read new and terrifying scene with no memory of having written it
WTF, subconscious

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok?

Y’all might be interested. A lot of Filipinos don’t know about contemporary Philippine literature in English, and the book I wrote introduces pinoy sci fi, fantasy, etc. I got to include an LGBT module even though this is marketed to the senior HS. Enjoy!
