I wrote a Young Adult Christian Romance Novel entitled, "Rose of Calapan" (And Her Pearls in the Box). To complete the manuscript, I began to jot down the list of names who could give me a blurb, sort of promotional piece for my book.
With the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, I thought of Miss Martina Turner Diaz, one of the honor awardees, talented and generous past pupils of Lombosco Academy (L.A.), "The Threshold of Academic Excellence and Growth in God's Love", located in Muntinlupa City.
Like me, Martina is also an advocate of literacy. Well, I believed that she got this passion from L.A. Full of determination to finish my book, I contacted her. I requested her to give me a book review.
Without second thoughts, she said, "Yes, I am willing to help you, Mrs. Lombos! Glad to know you're writing for the youth and the millennials."
Not so long, she sent me the review.
She wrote: Loss of self-confidence, struggles, indecision, survival, and a love story... "Rose of Calapan" is beautifully written. With additional "Pearls in the Box", Author Lucy Lombos shines in this novel.
Her words were perfect!
"Thank you, Martina for your legitimate review which really was as beautiful, smart and kind as you."
Days passed, I found out that this outstanding and stunning Filipina Beauty is our #Binibini3 who has chosen and trodden the road to #BbPilipinas2019. She's amazing!
Whooo-wo-wow! She's my sure bet, a strong candidate; absolutely she brings to Muntinlupa-Philippines the glorious crown! Go, Martina! God is with you.
