Wedding Night Stand #buqosteamyreads blog tour!


It's the final week of the #buqosteamyreads blog tour, and it's my own bundle that's going around the book blogs!

I ran a romance-writing class earlier this year and its goal was to produce steamy romances for Filipino readers. buqo sponsored the class, and for one year, my story Wedding Night Stand will only be available on their ebook store.


Wedding Night Stand is one of the shortest stories (under 10,000 words) in the #buqosteamyreads bunch, which surprised me! I thought with the mere five weeks that we had, the other writers would only be able to produce short stories. BUT NO. So I decided to pair up Wedding Night Stand with a previously published story, Young and Scambitious. You can buy them both as a bundle for P90, or individually for P45.

Here are the posts from the tour!

Set your readers to steamy

Do we have enough English-language adult romance by Filipino authors? I thought we didn't, and that it's such a shame. Some people agreed with me.

So for five weeks in 2014, we did something about it. I offered a class in adult-romance writing. 60 people signed up. Buqo agreed to sponsor it, and offer ebook distribution to anyone who finished their "steamy read" in time. 23 stories were in draft form at the end of the class.

On Friday, the final final manuscripts of the #buqosteamyreads stories are due, and there may be some last-minute panicking. I hope everyone who reads this sends happy vibes and good cheer to these authors, who shared their energy, ideas, pics of shirtless guys... everyone was such a good sport, and I want to see them all published. (YOU CAN DO IT YOU CAN DO IT!)

Fortunately I was able to finish a story too (almost didn't!). It's called "Wedding Night Stand" (it's not about furniture) and it'll be sold exclusively on buqo for a year. For mature readers only though.

Authors, buqo, and casual observers of the #buqosteamyreads hashtag, thank you and YOU CAN DO IT!
