LSOV 1st Anniversary

Six Months na tayo!

I started my Fan Page last February 4, 2010 with almost  33 followers on that day.

Siyempre, kailangan kong magmakaawa para dumami man lang yung mga members ng page.

Siguro 5 stories pa lang yung nagagawa ko nun.

Pinakauna ay yung Bag at Folder series. Sinundan ng Jeepney at Sulat. Pagkatapos nun marami na rin ako nagawang kwento. At isa dun ang TEXT.

Text: Story of Bestfriends

As of now, ito na ang pinakamaraming YOUTUBE hits with half a million views. Sabi nila sobrang tragic at sobrang natouch sila na hindi na nila mapigilang maluha. Siguro isa sa mga dahilan kung bakit tinangkilik ng tao ang mga istorya ko kasi hindi siya pangkaraniwang pagbabasa lang. Kailangan mo ng malikhaing imahinasyon para matulungang maunawaan at maramdaman ang istorya. Sabi nila, may puso ang mga istorya ko kaya nila nagugustuhan.

Nasundan ito ng mga FBserye tulad ng Sulat, Chubby, Bola at Korea na sumasaklaw sa iba't ibang konsepto ng pagmamahal. Second chance for love, Weight doesn't matter, May-December love affair at long distance relationship.

Sa pagdaan ng panahon ay unti-unti lumaki ang LOVE STORY on VIDEO written by MARCELO SANTOS III.  Humigit kumulang 1/4 ng isang milyon ang kasapi dito.

Maraming maraming salamat sa mga sumusuporta sa aking likhang sining. Six Months na tayo! at sana lumagpas pa.

Love Story on Video from the Scratch

I remember when I started writing those love stories on video, somebody asked me what course did I take in college. When I answered them that I took Bachelor in Advertising and Public Relations their reactions would be "Oh? Really? I thought you are a mass communication student."

Actually, I'm not really a HARDCORE in terms of writing English compositions especially in oral way. I got nervous whenever I was asked by my professors for recitation, then I will say "Oh my God! Nosebleed!"

What should I say? What should I do?

My classmate named Diane told me that in order to communicate well in English you must allow yourself (self esteem) to conquer your body. Don't let your anxiety invades your body.

You must believe in yourself too.

I'm not a professional writer like Dan Brown, Stephenie Meyer, Paulo Coelho but I believe in myself. Writing knows no boundaries. As long as people can understand you, you are a writer. You don't have to use UNKNOWN English terms (lol) such as paramagnetic, imagism, assuage, backarapper and the like.

But on the other hand, it's comfortable to use your native language - Your First Language - in expressing what's on your mind.

Yung iba lang naman na Pinoy na palaging gumagamit ng English ay yung mga taong gustong masabihan ng Wow! Sosyal!

In english, Some Filipinos converse in English for the sake of becoming one of those "Class AB wanna be's."

In relations to what I am now or should I say, what am I doing now, I'm using Tagalog language in writing my love stories. Using our own language gives a sweeter impact on the story itself and also to its readers than to translate it to English.

As we all know, Filipinos were tagged for being sweet lovers and romantic people. Most of them relate themselves to some of my love stories suck as "Upuan" (story of 2 ex lovers), "Chubby" (story of not-that-fat teenage girl who fell inlove with two boys who are brothers) and a lot more.

It's been six months when I started writing those stress-reliever broken-heart-mender love stories that caught the interest of not just the modern techy teenagers but also the hopeless romantic young adults nationwide and also around the globe.
