stand alone complete [unedited] To quote someone, no one can teach you how to write-because life is the one who would teach you how to pen the beginning, climax, and end of your story-but what if you don't like how life writes it? Athanacia Norainne Samonte only has one goal in life-to write until she's out of breath. She loves writing, as much as how the sun always shine after the night has fallen back to slumber. Kaya naman nang makita ang oportunidad na maging script writer ng isang student director na si Kiran Conjuanco-she did her best to be the only option that Kiran could consider. He was her stimulus to write better so he could only set his eyes on her written crafts. Yet, writing was never easy. In this economy, she has a lot to consider when it comes to pursuing passion over practicality. She has to brace herself from the criticisms that barks and bites her whenever they can. She has to see that she's never going to be the best writer-because there will always be someone who writes better. She has to accept that sometimes writing. . .isn't just writing. When life gives her a script that should have been shelved, can Nacia act off script from this film turning into tragedy?

Formerly known as Heartwarmer. *** [Dumara Stories] Her agent was desperate. To cure the crippling writer's block of Talia Gregoni, she rented a summer homestay which turned out to be Talia's childhood home, sold years ago to the Peralta family. Now, Talia has to share it with Leonard Peralta, her childhood friend whose career, like hers, is built around the passion of love. But they have opposite approaches to fame: she despises the limelight, while he revels in public adoration. An unwanted collision catapulted them into a manufactured romance, after seeing the potential of their clear chemistry with feverish speculation of their history together. Seeing a solution to her deadline woes, Talia agrees to fake-date him, hoping the insane plan will inspire her and allow her to finish her overdue book. That's not a bad idea, right?
