    [SPOILERS] Preview: Fake-Married to My Billionaire Boss – Chapter 28 “Protecting Her”

    I just posted “No Negotiations” Chapter 27 of my current serialized novel Fake-Married to My Billionaire Boss on Wattpad. As promised, here is a preview of the next chapter. These previews could be anywhere from 200 to 400 words, depending on how big the chapter is. If you’re one of those readers who likes to take a peek, Spoiler Monday is for you.

  • Counting my words with Scrivener

    Counting my words with Scrivener

    One of the parts of being an author I’ve always struggled with was productivity in terms of word count. I’ve accepted the fact that I’m a slow writer. It’s fine! I just need to spend more time writing, is all.

    Because I’m kinda dumb sometimes, it never occurred to me to keep track of my word count and maybe set word count goals. I knew I could do this on Scrivener, the writing software I’ve had since fricking 2014 and which I love dearly (I’m not even exaggerating), but I’ve never used the word count features properly until last month.

    Have a Snack, sell your ebooks

    Let’s face it, we Philippines-based creators have always had difficulty selling our products online because so many of our potential customers simply don’t have or don’t want to use credit cards. I’ve gotten a few emails from my readers telling me they couldn’t buy my ebooks, a thing that confused me a lot of the time because I thought it meant Amazon or Gumroad or whatever platform they’re trying to buy from wasn’t accepting their credit cards. It turns out, they meant they literally couldn’t buy my books. Because they didn’t have credit cards.

  • I canceled my book … sort of

    I canceled my book … sort of

    I thought my readers on Radish would appreciate having a free story. And some of them did. As of writing this, FMMBB on Radish has gotten 180k reads (about 3.75x the 48k reads on Wattpad, which was a surprise, since Wattpad has way more active users than Radish). However, while the reader comments on Wattpad has been lovely, the past few weeks nearly all the reader comments on the story on Radish have been complaints about how I was updating the story so slowly. How I should be posting more than one update a week.

  • Revisiting old spaces

    I have a Tumblr account I hardly use. I think about it once in a while but I never made plans for what to do with it. It’s work having to maintain social media sites and because of the current Twitter meltdown, I’m already on two new ones I have yet to post on.
