my name is in a book!!

no, not the "people under 5 feet who have very curly hair" bestseller, but SILVIA'S BOOK: AN EXPAT'S GUIDE TO LIVING IN MANILA. after consuming a ream (or two) of bond paper, countless green and yellow highlighters and one sesame street notebook, the book is alive!

rows of Silvia's Book in the flesh!


The women behind Silvia's Book (L-R): Lizzie, me, Janine (kickass graphic designer), Chachi (kickass AM), Shoma and Marit

Me (3rd Quarter editor) with Da Book!

Pretty French (i think) girl reading.

my job was 95% editing and about 5% writing, but i have to say it was a blast writing free of audio and video columns...most liberating.

my favorite parts? for the humor points, making the disclaimer. for the "my husband loved it as well" factor, the introduction. for the "i can't wait to try this" factor, the homemade food ("the best oatmeal cookies in the world" are made in somebody's house in makati) and the resorts they've recommended in not-your-usual-vacation-spot places like camiguin.

Silvia's Book is available at all branches of Fully Booked. perfect for your expat friends/bosses/colleagues :)
