Dwellers by Eliza Victoria (Cover)

Dwellers by Eliza Victoria

Novel in English
Horror/Fantasy/Crime/Suspense

Rule No. 1: You don’t kill the body you inhabit.
Rule No. 2: You should never again mention your previous name.
Rule No. 3: You don’t ever talk about your previous life. Ever.

Two young men with the power to take over another body inhabit the bodies and lives of brothers Jonah and Louis. The takeover leads to a car crash, injuring Jonah’s legs and forcing them to stay in the brothers’ house for the time being.

The street is quiet. The neighbors aren’t nosy. Everything is okay.

They are safe, for now.

Until they find a dead body in the basement.

shiny, writerly things: visprint sale and promo, new estranghero press paperback

Currently nursing a swollen tonsil, which is decidedly not shiny.

In other news: books!

Every Saturday of October, Visprint (which is celebrating its anniversary – happy anniversary!) will be holding a warehouse sale in their office in Pasay City. Here’s the price list.

A Bottle of Storm Clouds (PhP132) and Project 17 (PhP 120) are both on sale. Both can also be found in bookstores. (Just Fully Booked for Project 17, but other bookstores will be carrying it soon.)

If you can’t make it to Pasay, Visprint can deliver the books to you for free. Prices will be based on SRP. No discount, but hey free shipping, and you don’t have to leave your home.

Like their Facebook page to get more updates.

UP Press is coming out with the third Estranghero Press book, Demons of the New Year. “Salot” first appeared in this anthology.

Look at this gorgeousness.

That’s it for now. I need to gargle with Bactidol.

project 17, a novel – coming soon

So I’m coming out with a science fiction novel this year. I finished the manuscript late last year, continued editing until early this year, approved the cover, approved the interior illustrations, and now I’m just waiting for the page spreads. With the help of Visprint (publisher), Project 17 should be hitting the bookshelves soon. Watch out for it!

For now, feel free to share this post far and wide. Are you ready ready ready?

UPDATE: The book will be launched in this Saturday’s Aklatan! See you there.

Science Fiction, Suspense, Crime

PhP 175

Lillian is merely looking for a babysitting job for the summer, but a desperate man named Paul Dolores hires her to look after his 28-year-old brother, Caleb. Caleb is suffering from schizoaffective disorder, and Paul, who is about to start on his first office job in a long while, wants to make sure his brother takes his medication on time. Lillian, at first hesitant, accepts the job for the pay and the perks, but soon starts to wonder about the brothers she is working for. How come she can’t find any information online about the drugs Caleb is taking? And how come the national central database lists them as dead?
