Horaaaay!! *throws confetti* *do the happy dance* *and cartwheel* Finally! Finally! ‘Eto na talaga ang highlight ng career ko! (At malamang dito na din matatapos. Lol) My very own series: THE HEIRLOOM SERIES!
It took me a loongggg time to finish four books. Emphasis talaga sa long dahil inabot ako ng isa’t-kalahating taon para mabuo silang apat. A day before my birthday (November 2011) I conceptualized this series upon hearing a specific bible story in our service. Romans 16: 3-27. It is also where I get Urbanus, Aquila and Gauis’s names. And the thought of making a series thrilled me. And I prayed for this, hard and long. Pero hindi pala gano’n kadaling bumuno ng series, kaya super taas ang kamay ko sa lahat ng may series.
FAST FACTS:
Heirloom
An heirloom is something, perhaps an antique or some kind of jewelry, that has been passed down for generations through family members. Sabi po ito ni Kumareng Wikipedia. :)
The Heirloom Series
This series about four siblings given a task by their father: to find their family’s lost heirloom. A set of moonstone jewelries were held in a possession by Sorelle family for a decades. But due to author’s crazy mind, at para na din may series ako, I made it a point that the heirloom got lost. Urbanus, Aquila, Gauis and Crystal (the Sorelle siblings) were given the task by their father to find the heirloom. And so the story starts.
Alam ko pong masusubok ang ‘willing suspension of disbelief’ ninyo dito, I know how impossible it is to find an heirloom, lost for years, in consecutive manner. But nonetheless, sabi nga, “Walang imposible kay Lord.” I believe that these four were guided by our Father up above in able to find the heirloom and along it, the half of their hearts.
Why Heirloom?
Naging obsession ko yatang magsulat ng mga lost something. hehe. I remember in my novel 'Meet Me In The Bukid' kalahati naman ng nobela ang hinahanap ng heroine. Naisip kong iwala ang isang buong jewelry set para may manuscript ako. haha! *Joke lang*

Urbanus is the eldest among them. He looooveesss Math. As for his heroine, gustong-gusto ko ang pangalang Faith o kaya Faithie that's why I insist for him to love Faith. ^_^
Aquila

Second among them. He's the most playful and cheerful among them. He loves to talk and loves to cook. Siya ang kinalabasan ng pagma-marathon ko ng Supernatural. Ang pagiging makulit ni Dean (Jensen Ackles) ay inilagay ko kay Aquila.
Gauis

Third brother, obviously. hehe. Siya ang pinaka-tahimik sa lahat, sana nagawa ko siyang maging tahimik. Gusto ko din ang pangalang Love kaya iyon ang ibinigay kong ka-partner sa kaniya. Haha.
Crystal

The youngest Sorelle. The brat. The most annoying Sorelle. But among them I love her next to Aquila. Sa lahat ng nakabasa ng 'My Sweet Peril', 'Like The Nightangale's Love' and 'Life Sweetest Cake', marahil ay kilala na ninyo kung sino si Gray. I wanted him to be the bad boy image kuno kaso iba ang gusto niyang mangyari kaya hinayaan ko na lang.
We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man’s gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully.
Romans 12:6-8
