Sometimes, he's a songwriter and loves to strum the guitar and sing. He loves the music of Rammstein, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Green Day, Eagle-Eye Cherry and Toad the Wet Sprocket.
When not writing, he's in his own library, reading and stacking his collection of books up on the shelves again and again. He loves the taste of cinnamon sometimes. He enjoys living his peculiar life near the gateway to the paradise island of Boracay.

BetLog: Titiliang Tala, Tatalaang Tula - (Ukiyoto Publishing)
Sana BET mo ang LOG ko...
Ang uri ng panitikan na "Erotica" ay kinamuhian ng madla sa loob nang maraming siglo. Sa pagkakaalam ko, isang gagalangin na pari ang siyang unang naglakas-loob na magsulat ng mga nakakalibog na akda. Wala man siyang kinalaman sa akin at sa aklat na ito, nandoon naman ang kahalagahan ng kaniyang ginawa; ang pagbubukas sa ating pananaw at isipan sa lathalaing may temang pangmatanda.
Sana BET mo ang LOG ko...
Kung medyo may kakitiran ang utak mo, isang taos-pusong mungkahi mula sa akin na huwag mo nang ituloy ang pagbubuklat.

Katulad ng isang munting batang nauutal.. Nabubulol...

ISIP
Nagsimula ang lahat sa itaas. Sa itaas na bahagi. Sinipi mula sa lumulutang na kawalan.
ISIP
Lumulutang sa loob ng isang sisidlang buto. Sisidlang nananatili mula sa paglutang hanggang sa paglisan. Utak.
ISIP
Maparaan. Maalam. Matalino. Marunong. Wais.
ISIP
Bilangin ang kaparaanan. Bilang lang ang may alam. Iilan lang ang may dunong. Nabibilang ka ba sa kanila?

EXPLICREET CONTENT (Explicit - Discreet)
Ang mga kuwentong Science Fiction Erotica
(alien erotica/monster erotica/tentacle erotica)
na napapaloob sa aklat na ito
ay pawang kathang-isip lamang
at walang balak na maka-insulto,
makaapi o makapanakit sa iba.
Isa ring uri ng panitikan ang Erotic Sci-Fi
na kung minsan ay kinamumuhian ng madla
ngunit hindi kailang kinababaliwan din ng marami.
Kung maaari lamang ay huwag ipabasa sa may makikitid na utak
at lalung-lalo na sa mga bata at mga isip-bata.
