My Story

WORDS. IDEAS. RESULTS.

You may see me lurking in a  coffee shop, alternately sipping black coffee and typing furiously on my laptop while my eyes are glued to the screen. This is my normal day. 

 

As an editor and writer, I easily get lost in my own little world filled with nouns, pronouns, and punctuation. I have a love-hate relationship with dangling modifiers and loves the ingenuity of an Oxford comma. 

 

My endless pursuit of a work-life balance has made me decide to leave the office and do freelancing. Armed with my trusty laptop and a good Internet connection, I work while discovering new places and meeting people around the globe. 

 

So if you see me hanging around your favorite cafe or wandering in your city, don't hesitate to approach me. Let's talk about writing, life, books, or anything under the sun.

Southern Stories and Strays.

Maria Elena Paulma

Finalist, Best Book of Fiction in English,

37th Philippine National Book Awards

This collection of stories are about those middle spaces where there will always be more than one thing, all at once: logic and love, truth and imagination, tradition and transitions, presence and loss, madness and choices, grief and life.

Metroimperial Intimacies combines historical, literary, and archival analysis with queer-of-color critique to show how U.S. imperial incursions into the Philippines enabled the growth of unprecedented social and sexual intimacies between native Philippine and U.S. subjects.
