Reaching readers requires showing up (and ugh, paperwork)

Last week, I got to present RomanceClass and pitch five featured (and appropriate) books to an audience of over 200 public school educators specifically tasked to acquire books for their schools and students.

There’s work to be done to get to this point. Registering, showing up, participating gets you inside the room, so to speak. When you’re inside the room, and you have 10 minutes to talk ab

Quotes by Mina V. Esguerra  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“So we liked to speak our minds, but not our hearts. Too bad, because sometimes people needed to hear that. A whole mess of things could have been avoided if we just knew how to say the right thing.”
Mina V. Esguerra, Love Your Frenemies

“Before I met him, I wondered how I could possibly fit a relationship into my life. My days felt full, of people, things, and concerns, and I wondered what I'd give up to accommodate someone new. Anton made it seem easy. He didn't take me out of my life; instead, he sort of slid into the empty spaces and made himself comfortable.”
Mina V. Esguerra, That Kind of Guy

“Some girls can't stand to be around the guy they like. They get really nervous, and rather than make fools of themselves, they just stay away. I was the opposite; the more I liked a guy, the more I wanted to be around him. I was the type who'd join the same org, or pick the same elective. Sure I was probably looking like a fool five times a day over a bunch of things, but I liked being close to someone I admired.”
Mina V. Esguerra, Interim Goddess of Love

July 2012 Book of the Month Poll: Chick Lit

Hi folks! Sorry this took a while but I hope it's worth the wait.

To borrow Meann's rationale about having not declared a set number of books (hihi), I decided to expand the selection a bit to four (4) books since I couldn't bear to remove one.

I've set the poll to end by 28 June so that I can e-mail e-book files to everyone except for the 4th book in the poll which is readily available at any NBS branches for PHP 175.00.

So vote away. Thanks for your patience. <3
