Lahat naman tayo may ups and downs sa buhay. Sino ba naman ang hindi nakaranas nito? Ang mag break down pero patuloy pa rin ang paglaban. Isa si Iris Feria sa mga taong nakaranasan nito simula ng namatay ang nakakatanda nitong kapatid. Minsan niyang kinuwestiyon ang Diyos bakit nga ba iyon nangyayari sa kanya? Bakit nga ba nabubuhay pa siya sa mundo para lang malungkot? Hirap sa pag aaral. Hirap sa pamilya. Halos lahat na yata sinalo niya na. Nung mga panahon na sobrang downniya na may nakilala siyang misteryosong lalaki. Sino nga ba ang lalaking iyon? Mababago ba ang paniniwala ni Iris tungkol sa kaisipan niya sa buhay? O, baka naman isa lang siya sa magiging sanhi ng kanyang patuloy na kalungkutan? Ikaw? Minsan mo na rin bang naitanong sa iyong sarili. Masaya pa bang mabuhay? O pinipilit mo lang sumaya?

Will they be able to surpass the challenges together? Or will they choose to walk their ways separately?

Poem is something that arouses strong emotions because of its beauty. Writing is my way of expressing myself. Please be reminded: Words, ideas and thoughts are everywhere.

Ang librong " Nang Minsang Mahulog Ang Mga Tala " ay Katipunan ng mga berso o tula na aking isinatitik sa pagitan ng bawat parusa ng lumbay na minsan nang tumalo sa bawat piraso ng aking kagalakan.

A 2019 Watty Winner. For fans of Allison Pataki and Philippa Gregory, THE NYMPH OF VERSAILLES is based on the true story of Madame Montespan's rise and fall at the court of King Louis XIV. Being the Sun King's mistress is a coveted position in a court full of greedy courtiers vying for power and Athénaïs de Montespan won't let anything stand in the way of her stealing the king's heart-not even poison. When the king's interest in his mistress Louise begins to wane, Montespan sees the position as a possible escape from her husband's mounting debts and loveless marriage. Her strained friendship with Louise doesn't stop her from charming the king. However keeping his heart is tricky in a court full of plotting beauties eager to have him for themselves, especially with her jealous husband bent on ending her seduction. Then her children's governess becomes an unexpected rival for the king's heart and the only woman who can contend with Montespan. With the court swirling with rumors of poison, Montespan finds herself caught in the web of accusations. Her position with the king begins to crumble as she fights to hold on to the life she's built. Without the king's love, she fears she will lose everything as she falls from grace.

The Freeze-Dried Groom is one of the nine stories in Margaret Atwood's fantastic new collection Stone Mattress. A collection of highly imaginative short pieces that speak to our times with deadly accuracy. Vintage Atwood creativity, intelligence, and humor: think Alias Grace. Margaret Atwood turns to short fiction for the first time since her 2006 collection, Moral Disorder, with nine tales of acute psychological insight and turbulent relationships bringing to mind her award-winning 1996 novel, Alias Grace. A recently widowed fantasy writer is guided through a stormy winter evening by the voice of her late husband in "Alphinland," the first of three loosely linked stories about the romantic geometries of a group of writers and artists. In "The Freeze-Dried Groom," a man who bids on an auctioned storage space has a surprise. In "Lusus Naturae," a woman born with a genetic abnormality is mistaken for a vampire. In "Torching the Dusties," an elderly lady with Charles Bonnet syndrome comes to terms with the little people she keeps seeing, while a newly formed populist group gathers to burn down her retirement residence. And in "Stone Mattress," a long-ago crime is avenged in the Arctic via a 1.9 billion-year-old stromatolite. In these nine tales, Margaret Atwood is at the top of her darkly humorous and seriously playful game.

"As a child, I was one of those who buried treasures in jars, with the idea that someone, some day, might come along and dig them up. I found similar things while digging in the various gardens I have made: old nails, old medicine bottles, fragments of china plates... That is what the Future Library is like, in part: it will contain fragments of lives that were once lived, and that are now the past. But all writing is a method of preserving and transmitting the human voice." There’s a secret book that no one will read for 100 years. It is a book from the future, so it hasn’t been published yet. It is kept in a locked room, in a Norwegian library. There is a sacred grove that will provide the paper for its pages. And there are 100 authors who will write its secret stories. 100 years. 100 stories. 100 different writers. This is the Future Library (Framtidsbiblioteket). It is being created by Scottish artist Katie Paterson for the city of Oslo in Norway. When Katie had to choose the first writer to contribute the first story, she named Margaret Atwood, prizewinning author, poet, essayist, literary critic, and Wattpad’s official Fairy Godmother. Read Margaret's thoughts about her involvement in the project here. *Watch Margaret on Periscope on May 26th 2015 to witness the live event, and stay tuned for a special Wattpad writing contest coming soon!*
