Finally, out na ang first book sa aking hindi sinasadyang series! Yup, I didn’t intend to have a series when I came up with the plot of Your Heart’s Under Arrest. The hero here was supposed to be a police. Iyon lang, haha! Wala dapat siyang action scenes ng mabuo ko ang story sa isip ko pero alam ko ng gagawan ko ng story ang kaibigan ng heroine ko dito.
But when I started writing this, the idea for the fight and action scenes popped in my mind, telling me that I must create that for the story to be interesting(well, that’s to my opinion). So, the idea for Love, Camera, Action! Series was born. Apat na kuwento lang ang una kong naisip habang sinusulat ko ang kuwentong ito. Pero dahil nanganganak pala talaga ng mga ideya habang nagsusulat ang isang writer, nabuo ang iba pang characters sa serye na mabuti na lang, pasok sa banga para maidagdag ko.

Naalala ko na namang grabeng frustration ang dinanas ko dito pati doon sa kasunod na book. Not because I had a difficult time writing those. Actually, feeling ko, forte ko ang mga ganitong tipo ng kuwento. I got frustrated, last year, November iyon nagsimula `cause before this, na-reject ang MS na pinasa ko. Ay, hindi pala. Para lang siya sa major revision pero masyado akong nanggipuspos sa result kaya hindi ko siya tinangkang ayusin bukod pa sa tingin ko eh, major overhaul talaga ang kailangan kong gawin para doon.

Palapit na ang Pasko at wala akong pera. I was also pressured and I was hoping that this story would be approved before the holiday vacation starts. Eh, kaso nahingan ako ng minor revisions para dito, as in maliit lang talaga. Hindi agad siya na-reevaluate at ng sumunod na taon(2011) pa ulit ako nakatanggap ng feedback. Just imagine how I was so broke that holiday season. Ano pang ginawa ko, kundi nganga! Haha. Pero lipas na iyon, nagtanda na ako na ayusin ang trabaho ko at bilisan. (I still am contemplating if I really got my lesson well when it comes with the latter).

Bottom line of this blog entry: lumabas na rin ito na almost one year ko ding hinintay. All was paid off; the cover was so nice and beautiful, makakatulong kahit paano sa sale, hehe! Credits to those who made this at kahit huli na, doon sa video na sobrang nag-arouse ng curiosity ng mga readers. Ang ganda rin. (By the way the guy was so gorgeous; I used it as my profile pic. But he’s nothing compare to the hotness of my love, Lee Dong Wook(~0~)). Of course thanks to the publisher and mostly, to my editorJ
