Forest in ATL Series

I'm still fascinated about the forest sa Sanvitores mansion, because it has been described (both in MOG and MOS) that some trees bear purple flowers. Nabanggit ba kung anong mga puno iyon?

Kasi based on my research, the only possible kind is either Banaba Tree or Jacaranda. The latter being rare and only found in high altitude places like Baguio and vv few in Negros.

For me mas nagm-make sense if they're Jacarandas kasi bundok at high altitude naman yung mansion. Wala lang, just a random thought. Ang ganda lang noong insertion sa scenes

Writing a cliché trope

So I'm writing a story na ang trope ay province boy and city girl (ofc this has many sub-tropes). Hindi naman doon nakapalibot ang story, but given that it's ongoing, that's how much I could reveal pa lang. And then someone commented, predicted the plot, and said nakakasawa na raw ang ganoon at ang dali dali namang isulat.

Note na wala pa sa kalahati ang story. Mali rin ang prediction niya. But still, medyo nakaka-off as a writer na may mga binabato na silang off na commentaries without even reading the whole thing.

Question, dapat ba talaga na super unique ang trope ng story? What, do you think, is the right way to address this? Sobrang uncalled for kasi noong comment.

Discovering Jonaxx

I've been reading her works since 2017. Naalala ko, first ever book I opened from her wattpad account was WLBTS tapos ongoing pa that time. First ever completed book ko naman na natapos sa kaniya is BBTW.

And that time, I wasn't really grasping how well known she was, and will become in the following years. To the point that I only mentioned her name once during a random conversation with an older coworker, and kilala niya si Jonaxx?! Though their knowledge abt her was shallow, it still surprised me. Kasi hindi iyon nagbabasa ng wattpad. Sabi niya nakikita niya raw sa newsfeed niya noon, tapos ang alam niya is “sikat na manunulat” daw yan na uso sa mga kabataan.

Wala lang share ko lang. Ang amazing pala ng reach ni Ate J, kahit sa non-readers.
