Last month September 21st, I join the launching and book signing of author Iris Orprecio. The best poems from her three Word Press and two Multiply poetry blog are now compiled in two anthologies, The Beautiful Fever and Cognac for the Soul at posh bar Moonleaf- Columns 1 corner Ayala and Gil Puyat Avenues, Makati.
Orpi, had two passions, writing and mathematics. She took up Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Mathematics and worked as member of the faculty at the University of the Philippines for five years. A few years ago, she resigned from teaching post to pursue a writing career. She currently hold a three-tier job at Game Services Group, Inc. – Creative / technical writer, mathematical analyst and academic consultant. The mixture of glamor and chaos of the Makati Central Business District, where her office is, gives her the inspiration to continue writing despite of her busy schedules.via

Thank you for supporting my event (there weren't that many people who came that I don't personally know so it's always a thrill to be "discovered" by a stranger) and for helping me spread the word about my books! And thank you for the click-backs to my blog. I see from the directed traffic that you have quite a following in this blog of yours. I have pictures of you too, taken by the event's official photographer. I haven't uploaded a big chunk of that night's crop but I will be sure to link you and your blog as soon as they're up.

ReplyDeleteMathematics and business as inspiration? Ang hirap yata ma-imagine yun. She's really one heck of a unique poet if she writes masterpieces inspired by maths and business.
I like poems to. There was a phase in my life when I wrote poems and participated in poetry contests.
And this is the first time I've heard about a blogger-poet! Impressive! I like your taste Ms. Sunny Toast. You're really classy and very refined.
