The Sanctuary of Us
The Sanctuary of Us is now officially released as a book! Click this link to order my book through Shopee. More information about this book below:
My latest poetry, essay, and short stories collection is getting published into a book! It's going to be published by Golden Artisan Publishing. The Sanctuary of Us (TSOU) is a special book I wrote in the month of April 2024. I have been on a writing hiatus for almost three years, and at the beginning of 2024, having lost the motivation to write, I didn't have any plans to go back to writing or finish an entire book. I had almost forgotten that creating stories was an integral part of my entire existence. So, when March 2024 came, and I had this sudden, unexplainable urge to write, I challenged myself to a daily writing challenge throughout the whole month of April 2024.
The writing challenge was a success, I wrote entries every day, exceeded my expected word count, and ended up with 119 entries for a single collection. A publisher accepted my work. Golden Artisan Publishing (GAP) trusted this book from the very beginning. GAP is the exclusive publisher of this book and the publisher of my dreams! We work together and my feedback and requests are valued. My publishing experience with them is magical. I didn't lose control of my work. They are giving me all the freedom and assistance I need to summon TSOU into reality. Once published, it will be available for purchase on my publisher's website, Shopee/Lazada store, and future book display projects.
Two bookstores, namely, Mt Cloud Bookshop (Baguio City) and Alitaptap Bookshop (Koronadal City) will display TSOU on the bookshelves of their physical shops once copies are available. In collaboration with my very own small Product Formulation shop, 7th Shard Apothecary, and a very talented local Artist based in Palawan, Eunice Bayhon, there are two official Book Merchandise for TSOU: Sanctuary Salve & Sanctuary Keychain.
Pre-order of TSOU starts on May 15, 2024, and it's not your ordinary pre-order, because by pre-ordering this book, you will be entitled to pre-order perks! These perks are only available for pre-orders, that's why I highly recommend if you're interested in buying my book, join the pre-order to avail the limited offer for TSOU. Stay tuned on the Facebook Page of Golden Artisan Publishing for the pre-order form on the 15th of May!
Since the pre-order period has ended, you can now order my book on the Publisher's Shopee Store. Follow me on Facebook to be updated for future events related to this book.
Your support means a lot to the writer in me.

With more than a hundred thousand reads on Wattpad, I invite you to read my General Fiction series, The Power Assembly. Unedited versions of Books 1 & 2 (duology, completed), 3 (standalone, completed), 4 (ongoing), and 5 (standalone, completed) are available to be read for free. This series also contains Dark Romance and sensitive elements. It is mature and make sure you read the Warning Page first before proceeding. Reader discretion is advised.
You can also read my fantasy novel and other poetry collections on Wattpad. My mystery novel is available on Dreame. Please note my works on Wattpad and Dreame are raw drafts and unedited. Only published book versions are edited.
Trivia: TSOU is a book under The Power Assembly universe and also connected to the storyline of Artisans: Warrior Princess Rebirth.
To the current readers of these stories, I'm forever grateful to you. I'm not consistent, we don't have any regular updates, and my novels are still on hiatus for three years now, but there you are, still patiently waiting. After the successful publication and release of The Sanctuary of Us, I plan to resume the updates of Silence the Siren and/or Artisans: Warrior Princess Rebirth. Not just for myself, I will continue writing for you.
